About this product
Zvonimir Nagy's Angelus is a singular journey into a meditative state. Like the commemoration of annunciation, Nagy's album features music for thoughtful contemplation, using solo organ to create delicate space for inner exploration throughout the life of the album. Themes of spiritual reflection are evident in most of the tracks. Inspired by Philippians 4 13, InchPrayerInch features a melody that is moody, melancholic, and mournful, a plea for forgiveness. Later on, in the back half of the album, the seven movements of the InchPreludes for a PrayerInch embrace the ambience created by Nagy's solo organ performance. Angelus is Nagy's foray into a unique blend of post-minimalism and traditional. The composer finds inspiration in both ends of the spectrum. The tender droning melodies ring in the eponymous track evoking ease and a soothing mood. In stark contrast, the five movements of InchLitanies of the SoulInch generate augmented power, creating the yin and yang of disturbing and recreating peace. While the album promotes the theme of internal investigation, the performance is by no means stream-of-consciousness. Despite it's free-flowing feel, each composition is meticulously written. Rather than being a reactionary performance, the movements in Angelus feel like chapters in a document. Each one captures the shifts in dynamic and repetitive melodies that builds the complexity with each passing second until the explosion of the last movement arrives. Then, just as quietly as Angelus was born, the finale rings into a moment of closure and then ceases, completed. Album Tracks 1. Angelus 2. Litanies of the Soul 3. Prayer 4. Two Canons 5. Preludes for a Prayer

While the horn may be considered the emblematic instrument of the Romantic period, among string instruments this honorary title clearly belongs to the viola. Vidor and Péter Nagy provide striking evidence in their present recording with original works and successful arrangements of some classics of Romantic and late Romantic literature. Vidor Nagy was born in Budapest where he studied with Prof. Pál Lukács at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest. In 1965 he won first prize in the academy's viola competition. He went on to achieve his diploma there in 1967. Subsequently he studied at the Northwest German Conservatory in Detmold with Prof. Bruno Giuranna.
