Kulturtipp: Leuchtende Klanggemälde, Orazio Sciortino

Gramophone (UK): SCIORTINO Chamber Music for Piano and Strings

Italian contemporary music has struggled to find renewed focus in recent years, with Orazio Sciortino (b1984) evidently among its leading lights. A formidable pianist (witness his set of opera transcriptions by Liszt and Tausig) as well as composer, the piano fairly dominates this disc of chamber works written during 2012‑13, but Diario di un p...

Gramophone (UK): LEVINAS Le Petit Prince

Marks out of ten for product management: zero. Here we have an audio recording of an opera sung in French with no libretto (not even on the web) and no synopsis in the booklet, but instead a sycophantic three-page biography of the composer in laughable English that refers to the aforementioned opera in the future tense, ‘to be created in 2015’ ...

CD Hotlist: Charles du Plessis Trio, Baroqueswing Vol. II

Baroque music, particularly the music of J.S. Bach, has proved irresistible to jazz musicians for decades now. I think it’s the combination of harmonic richness and rhythmic regularity: Bach’s countrapuntal lines are so much fun to play in straight rhythm that the temptation to makes those lines swing can just be kind of overpowering. This Sout...

Audiophile Audition: George Robert, sax – Plays Michel Legrand

Michel Legrand at the movies, on sax. With the passing of George Robert (1960-2016), we have lost a very fine jazz musician and esteemed educator. He played with many of the top big bands, including Lionel Hampton and Phil Woods. A longish stint with Tom Harrell is also a highlight of his discography. Robert is quite a traditional alto stylist ...

Scènes Magazine: Elektra, la chanteuse touche au sublime - Gwyneth Jones
