Kenneth Martinson - Chamber Music with Viola - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Milhaud / Martinson - Sonata 1 for Viola and Pia [COMPACT DISCS] date 07/01/2002

Darker Than Blue is an unswervingly honest, highly personal album - Blue Daisy distills his personal experiences in to this cinematic meditation on the clash between the forces of dark and light, yin and yang, good and evil.

World premiere recordings are brought together on this new GENUIN album featuring works by the composer Christian Ridil Renowned musicians from the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, among others, play in formations ranging from brass quintet to flute and percussion to the exquisite combination of (chromatic) harmonica and harpsichord. The works of the Goethe University Frankfurt's former university music director are characterized by stylistic diversity, wit, charm, and virtuosity and yet bear Ridil's clear signature. Absolutely worth discovering!
