Mieczyslaw WeinbergKremerata BalticaECMLiving in the shadow of his close friend and neighbour Dmitri Shostakovich, the Polish refugee was little known in his lifetime 1. Soviet Russia. But a revival has been stirring these past few years with European and US productions of his Auschwitz survivors opera The Passenger and sporadic recordings of variable quality of his instrumental works, among them 2. Some consider him the third great Soviet composer, after Prokofiev and Shostakovich. Gidon Kremer has no doubts of his genius. This page lists 228 piano solo transcriptions that are available somewhere on the Internet. Here you can find more about the best web sites that offer free and paid. He opens this set with a solo violin sonata, austere and melancholic. Skip that, and you enter a frisky 1. Tchaikovsky winner, Daniil Trifonov. Written under Stalins second Terror Wave in which members of Weinbergs family were murdered, the works wear a fixed smile and a ferocious concentration. The listener dare not relax. A 1. 94. 8 concertino for violin and string orchestra is altogether more ingratiating, with an arresting opening melody and busy interplay between soloist and ensemble. Its a retro near masterpiece of 1. The tenth symphony, which wraps up the album, is a post tonal experiment of the late 1. The playing quality is top drawer. Weinberg always leaves me wanting to hear more. Buy this CD at Amazon. February 4, 2. 01. The Westminster LegacyDGIn the golden age of orchestral recording the 1. American labels piled into London and Vienna after an aggressive union priced their own musicians out of work. At Abbey Road, players worked thirty days on the trot, three sessions a day, to feed a burgeoning market for classical music. In Vienna, the Philharmonic exclusively contracted to Decca performed under six different names for other labels. Westminster was one of the busiest of these producers and its arhives have been virtually unavailable for the past quarter century, since the digital dawn. This overdue compilation of 4. CDs is filled with uncollected glories, some half remembered, others unknown. A Vienna Mozart Requiem conducted by the cerebral Hermann Scherchen, with Sena Jurinac as soloist Clara Haskil playing the Mozart D minor concerto and the very young Daniel Barenboim the E flat major treasures beyond the stuff of dreams. Pierre Monteux leading Beethovens ninth in London with Elisabeth Soderstrom and Jon Vickers Adrian Boult conducting The Planets in Vienna Hans Knappertsbusch interpreting Bruckner debut discs by the Amadeus Quartet and Julian Bream the two best Czech quartets coming together in Mendelssohns Octet. This is fantasy casting of an almost unimaginable pedigree and few today are aware that these recordings even exist. There are, inevitably, a few period duds in the box, but even these mishits Scherchen Conducts Music for Multiple Orchestras proclaim an idealism that wed write off as quixotic if we didnt, finally, blessedly, have proof of their existence.

The first is written in B flat minor, a dark key that others mostly shunned. The second is by Boris Tchaikovsky, a student and kindred spirit of Dmitri Shostakovich. The third is like nothing youve ever heard before. In the first place, its composers name is not really Tchaikovsky. That was a name picked by his grandmother to pluck him from the Warsaw Ghetto and keep him alive, hidden in a closet, until the Nazis were defeated. The boy, a pianist and composer, was an unsettled soul who lived mostly in England until his death of cancer, aged 4. For many years he was known as the man who left his skull to the Royal Shakespeare Company for use in the gravediggers scene in Hamlet. Last summer, however, his opera The Merchant of Venice received a triumphant premiere at the Bregenz Festival and the third Tchaikovsky too late to change the name is now firmly back in play. His piano concerto, written for Radu Lupu in the late 1. Sixties London. Atonal and dramatic, it is austere only in its frugality not a note out of place. A sultry mischief, alternately angry and amused, pervades the work. The music engages the listener with a powerful personality and an infectious musicality. We need to hear this concerto at the BBC Proms to sample its exciting potential. The performers here are Maciej Grzybowski and the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, conductor Paul Daniel. Andr Tchaikovskys extraordinarily articulate diaries, also published this month by Toccata, recount a dauntless human odyssey. Buy this CD at Amazon. December 1. 6, 2. Antheil the futuristWergoThe original American in Paris, George Antheil titled his best selling memoirs Bad Boy of Music and tried hard to live up to his billing. Raised a Lutheran in Trenton, New Jersey, he went wild among artists and ladies, filling his apartment with new acquisitions a Braque, a Picasso, a Leger, two Kubins, the paint still wet. Shuttling between 1. Paris and Berlin he finally headed to Hollywood, last refuge of the wannabe celebrity. In music as in books, his best writing is often the title Airplane Sonata, Swell Music, Death of Machines. The promise soon wears thin. Aiming to break sound barriers, he lands somewhere between honky tonk and his all time idol, Igor Stravinsky. The solo piano music is entertaining enough in noisy spells. Guy Livingston, intermittently joined by two other pianists, hurls himself at the keyboard and spares no effort to make a case for an Antheil revival. No fault of his that the music is no more than a dinner plate shattered into period pieces. Buy this CD at Amazon. December 9, 2. 01. James Mac. Millan Alpha OmegaLinnNobody does church like James Mac. Millan. Every year, as Christmas nears and a Mass or Magnificat of his lands on the deck, the composer contrives to surprise, bending the harmonic line out of the blue like David Beckham in his prime, while staying true throughout to a traditional sacred format. Mac. Millan himself directs his Missa Dunelmi, with Alan Tavener leading Capella Nova for the rest of the concert. It is recorded in the challenging acoustic of the Church of the Holy Rude, Stirling. The sound though, as youd expect on a label run by a high end hi fi manufacturer, is exemplary wondrously atmospheric and worth the album price on its own if youve got new speakers to show off to envious friends. Madeleine Mitchell pops up with a stunning violin solo, which she plays more like country fiddler than concert soloist, filling in the harmonic hills and valleys while the vocals curl upwards into the roof beams. Mac. Millan is a champion virtuoso of church space. Buy this CD at Amazon. December 2, 2. 01. SplintersOdradekThe opening of Gyrgy Kurtgs Splinters suite sounds like the tuner has arrived and is giving your piano a workover. Then the second phrase chimes in and you realise that you have never listened properly to a piano before. In one minute and seven seconds, a Hungarian composer takes off both your ears, gives them a rinse and polish and leaves them half a tone sharper than before. This is a specialist service offered only by Hungarian composers and their interpreters. Few perform it better than Mariann Marczi, a teacher at Budapests Franz Liszt Academy. She follows austere Kurtg with an extended aphorism of Gyrgy Ligetis and a meditation by Zoltan Kodaly, best known for exotic orchestral overtures but here measuring out each note like Bluebeard enumerating wives. An autumnal reflection by Laszlo Lajtha yearns for a Paris boulevard, while three Bla Bartk burlesques threaten to tip the piano totally off its casters. Two living composers, Zoltan Jeney and Gyula Csap, round off an original album without a single superfluous note. Transcrizioni di assoli piano saxopedia.
