680160091508. I was
tempted to call the piece
Throw Back because it
consciously employs
rhythmic and harmonic
approaches characteristic
of the earlier part of
the twentieth century,
much of which plays a
part in forging my
musical personality.
Going along with the
impetus, I have paid
homage by subtly
interpolating stylistic
or actual references to
such unexpected
bedfellows as Scriabin,
Ravel, Debussy, Piston,
Roussel, and Ysaye. I
hope I will be musically
forgiven. In one
continuous movement,
there are three definite
internal sections:
Presto-Largo-Allegro. The
first section opens with
a very soft percussion
cadenza. If the acoustics
allow it, the player will
use sponge pottery
mallets (sponge-headed
mallets employed to
smooth the interior of a
pot as it is being
spin-dried). No matter
how hard the
percussionist strikes the
drums, the dynamic cannot
go above pp (pianissimo).
This cadenza serves as a
basis for the first
movement. The elements of
the cadenza are taken by
the orchestra to make the
first major statement,
similar to the classical
concerto; but rather than
making a restatement, the
soloists, when they come
in, begin with
variational ideas. The
second section is given
over to the soloists, and
is lyrical. The third
section begins with an
alternation between
strict rhythmic pulsation
and free-sounding
timbres, as if reluctant
to leave the second
section behind. The
rhythmic aspect takes
over more and more as the
piece progresses toward
its conclusion. Double
Play was commissioned by
the Saint Paul Chamber
Orchestra with financial
assistance from the
Northwest Area
Foundation. It received
its premiere on January
7, 1983, in St. Paul,
with the St. Paul Chamber
Orchestra; Pinchas
Zukerman, violinist; Marc
Neikrug, piano; and the
composer conducting. $26.99 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |

German. It is not
only the great success of
Nathan Evans' re-release
of The Wellerman on
social media that is
responsible for the great
popularity of sea
shanties and naval songs.
Such songs create a
unique mood, a touch of
adventure and wanderlust
for the big, wide world.
Hardly anyone can elude
it and with Vahid
Matejko's Sea Shanty
Play-Alongs there are now
the most beautiful sea
shanties and naval songs
skillfully arranged as an
instrumental play-along
series for recorder,
flute, clarinet,
saxophone, trumpet (opt.
baritone T.C.), trombone
(opt. baritone B.C.),
violin, and accordion
(piano). The varied
arrangements have a wide
stylistic range and offer
echoes from rock, Latin,
funk, big band to
orchestral and Caribbean
influences. Thus, each
song has its own musical
and instrumental appeal,
to which the parts and/or
solos specially composed
by arranger Vahid Matejko
also contribute. The
original polyphonic
choral vocals are
replaced by polyphonic
instrumental
backings. Each of the
ten titles was recorded
live by excellent
professional musicians
and is available in two
different versions:
— a demo-track
which features a live
violin performance by
Julia Carola Jech, the
female world music
violinist and specialist
for tango music
and — a
minus-one mix for you to
play-along. $10.50 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 4 to 6 weeks | | |
