Kolektion: Cello CollectionSubkolektion: Cello and Symphony Orchestra
Casken's lyrical Cello Concerto is coupled with Maharal Dreaming, a vivid orchestral fantasy derived from his opera Golem; the glittering showpiece for strings, Darting the Skiff; and the theatrical and exuberant Vaganza, with its echoes of Petrushka.
These recordings were originally released on Collins Classics.
Reissued with funding from Arts Council England.
Casken's acerbic musical architecture is ideal for this ensemble; an ensemble whose smoothness of sound in the Mahlerian figures of Darting the Skiff is balanced by their precise articulation of Vaganza and subdued sonority in Maharal Dreaming. With Schiff's cool, mellifluous account of the Cello Concerto at its centre, this Casken retrospective is a must for any new music devotee.The Independent on Sunday |
