Comments and Reviews


Gill Sans SUBS 14th Dec 2023		Weihnachtsmusik, for string trio, piano and harmonium. Unlike Schoenberg's better-known atonal composing style, this is traditinally tonal, being written for his family to play one Christmas. This starts with a quote from Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen (There is no rose of such vertu):



Gill Sans SUBS 14th Dec 2023		I continue to work my way through the tracks here, and today's favourite is the Liszt transcription of Adeste Fideles, which manages to be rather intense but always with a sense of fun, shown by the repeated use of the " 'Ave A Banana" phrase. The pianist here is not credited and this version does not seem to be on YT but there is a good live performance by Alberto Belluschi

Gill Sans SUBS 13th Dec 2023		Joy To The World is shown here as 19th C Anon, but is usually ascribed to "Lowell Mason, based on Handel". An almost identical setting was used in the hymn "Comfort" by Charles Rider of Manchester (England). There's a detailed Wikipedia page for Joy to the World



Gill Sans SUBS 2nd Sep 2017		Thanks for that. "Associate Director of the Taverner Consort And Choir" is high position indeed.



doormanperdomo 2nd Sep 2017		Altogether more recent - this is he.



Gill Sans SUBS 16th Jul 2017		It would be interesting to look at the booklet to see if there are any details of the composer shown as "Bruno". Could this be Pablo Bruna of Daroca, Spain?
