Vienne 1900

Vienne 1900 (2005) more music like this

performed by Andrea Bonatta (piano), Anna Holroyd (mezzo-soprano), Anne Gastinel (cello), Arditti String Quartet, Arditti String Quartet, Dawn Upshaw (soprano), Haakon Austbö (harmonium), Irvine Arditti (violin), Isabelle Berteletti (percussion)
composed by Alban Berg, Alexander von Zemlinsky, Anton Webern, Arnold Schoenberg, Franz Schreker, Gustav Mahler, Johann Strauss II, Johannes Brahms, Richard Strauss

This is a two-disc collection of music, either recorded on France's Naïve label or acquired by that label, that arose in Vienna during the years on either side of 1900. It might be argued that the music of the Viennese fin de siècle was all about extremes -- of length, of concision, of orchestration -- and that the best way to appreciate the ...

John Cage: 44 Harmonies From Apartment House 1776; Cheap Imitation

John Cage: 44 Harmonies From Apartment House 1776; Cheap Imitation more music like this

performed by Arditti String Quartet, Irvine Arditti (violin)
composed by John Cage

For most of his career, American composer John Cage did not much care for the thirds and sixths that form the building blocks of the majority of Western music. Yet Cage stood for the very idea that all sounds were acceptable in music -- what did he have against good, old-fashioned traditional harmony? Arnold Schoenberg once warned Cage that if he ...

composed by Edoardo Sanguineti, Luciano Berio

Despite shifting trends and changing tastes in postmodern era contemporary music, Luciano Berio remains one of the most respected figures among composers active in the last half of the twentieth century. Berio's series of Sequenzas, however, are viewed as his main contribution to solo instrumental literature, sort of like Hindemith's instrumental ...

Brian Ferneyhough: Funérailles (2006) more music like this

performed by Arditti String Quartet, Christian Dierstein (percussion), Ensemble Recherche, Irvine Arditti (violin), Lucas Vis (conductor)
composed by Brian Ferneyhough

Noted as a "maximalist" for his densely textured, intricately constructed serial works, Brian Ferneyhough is a challenging composer by any standard, and his uncompromising and intensely demanding scores are some of the most original of the late avant-garde. In such complicated chamber works as Funérailles I (1969-1977) and Funérailles II (1969 ...

Jonathan Harvey: Complete String Quartets & Trio [Hybrid SACD] more music like this

performed by Arditti String Quartet, Irvine Arditti (violin), Lucas Fels (cello), Ralf Ahlers (viola)
composed by Jonathan Harvey

British composer Jonathan Harvey is difficult to pigeonhole. He has received inspiration and personal encouragement from Britten, Stockhausen, and Boulez, and it's possible to hear influences of all of them in various works from throughout his career. His instrumental music tends to lie mostly in the modernist arena, and the four string quartets ...

performed by Arditti String Quartet, Conlon Nancarrow (player piano), Irvine Arditti (violin), Ralf Ehlers (viola), Rohan de Saram (cello)
composed by Conlon Nancarrow

Any ensemble that takes on transcriptions of Nancarrow's player piano music deserves huge credit for bravery, and if it can pull it off, awestruck admiration. The Arditti Quartet programs both transcriptions of his works for player piano and works originally written for live performers, plus a duet for violin and player piano and a player piano ...
