BEETHOVEN EXPLORED, vol. 4 - P. Sheppard Skaerved (violin),Aaron Shorr (piano)
ID: MSVCD2006
Disk: 1
Type: CD
Podkolekce: Klavír

The fourth in our acclaimed series which presents Beethoven's Violin Sonatas in their musical and social context, alongside works by Beethoven's contemporaries and pupils. Here we present the op. 23 adn 24 Sonatas together with the very fine and little known C minor Sonata, op. 38. by Ferdinand Ries.

This is the fourth disc in a series that sets Beethoven’s sonatas in their social and musical context. The Opus 23 & 24 (Frühlingssonate) Sonatas were commissioned by Baron Moritz de Fries and were first performed in Vienna 1800. The connection with Ferdinand Ries was that his father had been a teacher of violin technique to Beethoven, and Beethoven reciprocated with piano lessons for Ferdinand, when he settled in Vienna in 1801.

L. van Beethoven:
Violin Sonata No. 4 in A minor, Op. 23

These beautiful works, often overlooked within the repertoire, contain many of the quintessential elements of Bach's work. Dramatic and moving, they have been described as a celebration of, and insight into, the composer's spirit, capturing a maelstrom of elation and stillness. The CD sleeve includes an illuminating essay by John Butt, one of the world's leading academic authorities on Bach.

COSMIC LIGHT - Piano Music by Keith Barnard - Jeffrey Grossman

COSMIC LIGHT - Piano Music by Keith Barnard - Jeffrey Grossman
ID: MSV28516
Disk: 1
Type: CD
Kolekce: InstrumentalPodkolekce: Klavír

Keith Barnard is a British composer whose music, rooted in spiritual exploration, both Eastern and Western, and is what is generically and rather loosely called "New Age" but which description does his thoughtful and deeply felt compositions a disservice. This world premiere recording is finely executed by American pianist Jeffrey Grossman.


Keith Barnard (b. 1950) was born in London, England, and studied composition with Arnold Cooke, a pupil of Paul Hindemith. Barnard’s music is often explicitly linked with healing and color rays, and many of his titles name the colors invoked by particular compositions and their instrumentation and designation.
Though Barnard has composed music for many instrumental and ensemble combinations, music for the piano forms the core of his output. His style draws together diverse influences, including the traditional Romantic pianistic tradition represented by Chopin and Liszt, the colorist French impressionist tradition of Debussy and Ravel, the 20th century mysticism of Alan Hovhaness and, above all, the music and philosophy of Alexander Scriabin.
As an active pianist himself, Barnard has frequently appeared in concert throughout Europe performing his own works for piano. His music for the instrument ranges from short pieces up to The Secret Tones of the Divine Spheres, a one-movement piano work of nearly three hours duration. Besides piano music, he has written a chamber opera, four symphonies, concerti for cello, piano, and organ, and numerous chamber works. In recent years, he has composed a series of organ works at the behest of American organist Carson Cooman, including 'The Purest Silence of the Divine', an evening-length organ cycle.

Paul Whitty - THIRTY-NINE PAGES - D. Morgan (violin), M. Dullea (piano)
ID: MSV28509
Disk: 1
Type: CD
Podkolekce: Violin

Paul Whitty works with both amplified and electronic music with ensemble [rout] (CD29001) and with acoustic instruments as in de-coding skin (CD25021). Recently Paul has been engaged in a series of interventions in pre-existing scores - undertaking an almost archaeological examination of the materials found there. Thirty-nine pages filters and re-organises each page of the Henle Edition of Cesar Franck's Sonata for Violin and Piano in A Major. Fragments of the Franck can be heard emerging - a single note, a chord, a phrase - from the often stark and simple textures of the surrounding material. This recording is superbly performed by artists who have built fine reputations in the world of new music.

Judith Bailey is a Cornish composer, whose music can be stark with deep emotional content; yet overall it is modern music with an inner joy and soul, always thoughtful and stimulating, which is extremely approachable and not in any way extreme. This is the first commercial recording of her work which should establish her reputation as a composer of exceptional talent.

Laurence Crane's music is thoroughly contemporary, but has hardly a dissonance in the whole 80 minutes of this CD. His music can be described as super-minimalist, but that would ignore the incredibly fine transitions of harmony and time embedded in his works. Ultimately this is music for the post-modernist age, and it can have no better advocate than Michael Finnissy, himself one of the foremost composers of our time.

One of Metier's first issues, and re-issued by demand, this CD is valuable to lovers of English music because Howells' music is still under-rated and ignored. The very fine musicians help to make this an essential recording.
