Petruta Kupper - All Clear! - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

With InchBinary StarInch, trombonist Peter Steiner and organist Constanze Hochwartner take you on a journey through the infinite expanses of the cosmos. The program of the album unites different composers and spans the musical arc from the late romantic Gustav Mahler to the film music composer John Williams. After the Austrian trombonist presented his album InchSapphireInch with Constanze Hochwartner on piano in 2018, the two pull out bigger guns on InchBinary Star.Inch These allow them to simultaneously draw on a range of sounds appropriate to the album's theme and dust off the time-honored combination of wind instrument and organ. InchThis brilliant combination allows us to create a wide variety of timbres and to realize all the musical ideas we have in the best possible way,Inch say Peter Steiner and Constanze Hochwartner. Their program leads once across the galaxy and consists of orchestral literature, which the two arranged and had arranged for their instruments themselves.

Philip Lane has long been a stalwart of British Light Music and this recording provides an excellent survey of his concert works. London Salute marked the 60th anniversary of BBC, while the lyrical and frivolous Diversions on a Theme of Paganini was originally written for brass quintet. Partly inspired by childhood memories, the Cotswold Dances reflect the composer's own part of the country, Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds. Composed for clarinet soloist Verity Butler, the Divertissement quotes liberally from Lane's earlier works, the most popular of which is the Sleighbell Serenade, a piece that has been performed all over the world.
