L'Oeuvre de Edgar Varèse, Vol. 2: 1925-1961
Edgard Varese, Kent Nagano, ...

Elektra / Wea, 1997

Varese's musical aesthetic is so uncompromising, so extreme, that listeners tend to sharply divide themselves between fervent admirers and equally vociferous detractors. One of the finest aspects of Kent Nagano's performances of the music is his unwillingness to apologize for it; he lets the music speak for itself in its clumsy, brilliant grandeur. The result is perhaps the definitive recording of the French modernist's work to date. --Joshua ...

George Crumb on Naxos
This CD, the newest release in the Naxos "American Classics" series, includes two eerily beautiful pieces for small ensemble by the contemporary American composer, George Crumb (b. 1929) performed by members of the Ensemble New Art conducted by Fuat Kent. Crumb is a "minimalist" composer with a terse and intense musical language. He is generally a miniaturist who writes works with a ...

Beautiful
I was looking for something different from all the popular American Chirstmas music that has been re-done so many times. Here is a collection that satisfied me, and will delight both Franco-phones and Anglo-phones (English speakers) Some of the pieces are very chant like, but others are lively songs with lots of energy. Especially notable are tracks # 18, Or vous trémoussez, pasteurs de Judée, ...

Hanssler Classics, 2008

Superlative art, piety, insight, and praise
Sofia Gubaidulina's "Passion" and "Easter" According to St. John are the composer's masterpiece, a moving choral and orchestral work, and one of the greatest works of Christian piety of our time. Here we are fortunate enough to hear a combined performance of the two by the Radio-Sinfonieorchester Stuttgart des SWR with choir and vocal soloists conducted by Helmuth Rilling. This is a ...

Hans Werner Henze: El Cimarrón
Nicholas Isherwood, Hans Werner Henze, ...

Stradivarius, 2007

"The music strikes a fine balance between the austerity of the scenic `actions' so popular in the '60s with the lusher traditions of full-scale opera ... powerfully effective." -- New York Times Rare complete recording of Henze's 1972 "recital for four musicians," El CimarrÃ³n, which means "runaway slave." This dramatic piece features a baritone portraying the real-life drama of a Cuban ex-slave named Esteban Montejo. Three ...

Siegfried Wagner: Der Kobold

Marco Polo, 2007

Magnificent Late Romanticism
Not knowing German, and lacking an English translated libretto, it was not possible to contextualize this material. Nevertheless, it is clear that the music is of a very high caliber, combining many beautiful tunes with advanced late romantic harmonization at the same level as S. Wagner's early 20th Century contemporaries. A definite recommend for those like me who enjoy "vegging out" for hours ...
