Ayre

Ayre (2005) more music like this

performed by Andalucian Dogs (chamber ensemble), Bridget Kibbey (harp), Dawn Upshaw (soprano), Eric Poland (percussion), Erik Friedlander (violoncello), Gordon Gottlieb (percussion), Tara Helen O'Connor (flute), Todd Palmer (clarinet)
composed by Luciano Berio, Osvaldo Golijov

The Argentine-Israeli-Russian composer Osvaldo Golijov outdoes himself with Ayre, a collection of...well, of what, exactly? Arrangements of Mediterranean folk songs? They're more than that; the Sephardic, Spanish, Italian, and Arabic songs included here are thoroughly reworked and even made to overlap. Some are traditional, some are contemporary. ...

Berio: The Complete Sequenzas, Alternate Sequenzas & Works for Solo Instruments (2006) more music like this

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 ...

Dedicated to Christian Lindberg [Hybrid SACD]

Dedicated to Christian Lindberg [Hybrid SACD] (2007) more music like this

performed by Christian Lindberg (trombone), Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra, Peter Rundel (conductor)
composed by Iannis Xenakis, Luciano Berio, Mark-Anthony Turnage

Trombone virtuoso Christian Lindberg has had over 80 concertos written for him. Lindberg admits that there are parts, sometimes large parts, of the three concertos recorded here that are virtually unplayable, but he has mastered them and offers no indication of stressful exertion; he and the Oslo Philharmonic, conducted by Peter Rundel, play with ...

Berio: Sinfonia; Eindrücke

Berio: Sinfonia; Eindrücke more music like this

performed by Regis Pasquier (violin), Swingle Singers, Orchestre National de France
composed by Luciano Berio

Berio's Sinfonia is a gloss on music history, modern literature, and the late '60s cultural milieu. Despite the presence of the Zeitgeist, it does not sound as dated today as other contemporaneous works do in hindsight. The piece's dovetailed references and quotations have meanings that extend beyond their use as a commentary on the times. The ...

Chanson Discrète (2007) more music like this

performed by Teodoro Anzellotti (accordion)
composed by Johann Jacob Froberger, Luciano Berio, Salvatore Sciarrino, Toshio Hosokawa

Teodoro Anzellotti is not your run-of-the-mill accordion player -- you won't find him playing at wedding receptions or polka parties. In fact, if Anzellotti plays anything remotely resembling traditional accordion music, it must be exclusively in the privacy of his own home, because you won't find it on any of his numerous recordings, his ...

Berio: Epifanie; Coro (2004) more music like this

performed by Cathy Berberian (mezzo-soprano), ORF-Chor Wien (choir, chorus), Orf Chor und Symphonieorchester, Leif Segerstam (conductor)
composed by Luciano Berio

The Salzburg Festival is not necessarily the first venue that comes to mind as a vehicle for contemporary music. The booklet note for Orfeo's Berio: Epifanie, Coro agrees -- the Felsenreitschule concert of August 19, 1974, featuring Luciano Berio's Epifanie was "played to whole rows of empty seats." Those who stayed home missed a truly stunning ...

Berio: Rendering; Stanze more music like this

performed by Dietrich Henschel (baritone), French Army Chorus (choir, chorus), Orchestre de l'Opéra de Paris, Christoph Eschenbach (conductor)
composed by Luciano Berio

Just weeks before his death, Luciano Berio completed Stanze (2003), a five-movement composition for voice and orchestra on poems by Paul Celan, Giorgio Caproni, Edoardo Sanguineti, Alfred Brendel (better known as a pianist than as a poet), and Dan Pagis. This valedictory work is pure Berio, instantly recognizable in its continually shifting layers ...

Berio: The Great Works for Voice (1995) more music like this

composed by Luciano Berio

Mode's reissue of Christine Schadeberg's 1995 recital of vocal music by Luciano Berio is a welcome addition to the catalog. While her performances don't make the listener forget the individuality and panache of Cathy Berberian, for whom most of these pieces were written, Schadeberg more than holds her own in her technical and expressive mastery of ...
