Par BARTOK BELA. Like so many famous virtuosic works, Bartók’s Sonata for Solo Violin was said, by its commissioner, Yehudi Menuhin, at first sight, to be unplayable! Of course, Menuhin soon changed his opinion, later describing the work as the most important composition for solo violin since Bach. The original work used the full array of violin techniques such as stopped harmonics, left-hand pizz…

Nashville Sessions is Shimabukuros first album of all original songs, created in a Nashville recording studio with two top session players, bassist Nolan Verner and drummer Evan Hutchings. Freewheeling studio jams evolved into beautifully realized compositions, such as 'Ballad? and 'Galloping Seahorses.? The tunes showcase some of Jakes most lyrical and melodic playing to date, along with his trad…

Edward Elgar's The Dream Of Gerontius is a splendid oratorio for Mezzo-soprano, Tenor and Bass with Chorus and Orchestra. It is based on the epic poem, The Dream of Gerontius by John Henry Newman written in 1865. The original vocal score of Gerontius was actually printed before Elgar's had even finalised or completed his final orchestration and as such it was printed without many of the markings t…

This refreshing work from Ola Gjeilo employs a folk-like sound to capture Yeats' wonderfully descriptive words about the Lake Isle of Innisfree. The movement in the piano, the strumming of the guitar, and the richness of the strings work together with the voices to create the imagery of a long and pleasant journey. / Choeur Mixte (SSAATTBB)

In 4 movements: I) Saudação, (Greetings), II) Lamento (Lament), III) Dança (Dance), IV) Despedida (Farewell). The most popular marimba concerto of all time. 'The concerto is superbly written for the unique timbre and virtuoso technical qualities of the marimba.' (Percussive Notes). The Concerto for Marimba and Orchestra was written in June and July of 1986 in Brasília and is dedicated to the compo…

Par HEINIO MIKKO. Mikko Heiniö's Alla madre (2007) abandons the traditional virtuoso concerto concept: here a large orchestra engages in dialogue with a solo violin. The first movement is called Arrivo, ?Arrival?: the soloist literally arrives later, and by degrees, playing his/her first two solos offstage. Even then the orchestra continues to take the initiative for a long time. Not until the sec…

Music played an enormous role in the works of William Shakespeare, while his own sonnets, poems and soliloquies have provided continuing inspiration for many composers through the years. The Novello Shakespeare Choral Collection, inspired by the 400th anniversary of the Bard's death in 2016, is an exciting anthology of choral works that are settings of Shakespeare's words. For choirs of all types …
