About this product

WERGO is proud to present a further album by Enjott Schneider. In InchClair Obscur - Colors of SaxophonesInch, extreme contrasts play a defining role beautiful and ugly, loud and soft, bright and dark - all these qualities are brought to life by the Berlin saxophone quartet, clair-obscur. The musical spectrum ranges from Old Masters to the extreme fringes of contemporary music. Cri Muet for saxophone and orchestra brings together tender lyricism and machine-like rhythms, along with Beethoven quotations and contemporary atonal harmonies. As Times Go Bye for alto, tenor, and baritone saxophone plays with the concept of time using motivic material from Johann Sebastian Bach. In Pavane, old and new meet in the contrasting sounds of saxophone and English Horn as well as in references to the music of the Spanish Renaissance composer Luis de Milán. In Berlin Punk, Enjott Schneider attempts to transpose the attitude and character of Punk culture into a symphonic setting. Rough, loud, dirty, insolent, and aggressive, yet also lyrical, poetic, and yearning this is the impressive emotional range that is radically achieved in the virtuoso performances by the members of clair-obscur. Album Tracks 1. Cri Muet (In Memoriam 13-11-2015) 2. As Times Go Bye - Suite in Memoriam J. S. Bach 3. Pavane - Variations on a Dance By Luis de Milán 4. Berlin Punk

Debussy / Tanner / Widner - Eloquent Saxophone   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Navona Records is proud to announce the re- of David Tanner's 1988 album The Eloquent Saxophone. Tanner is no Stranger to Navona; his compositions and arrangements can be heard on two other Navona releases Of Birds and Lemons (2012) and Dashing (2016). This was his first album, featuring him as a performer. It includes two unaccompanied pieces and two sax quartets recorded by multi-tracking, as well as a rich variety of works with accompaniment admirably rendered by pianist Marc Widner. The music ranges from Schumann to a stylized blues by Gene DiNovi. Tanner's musical language is enriched by classical training and a career encompassing rock'n'roll and jazz as well as symphony. Reviewer Denis Armstrong wrote in Music Magazine, InchNot long into this recording, one begins to marvel at the sheer joy David Tanner's playing conveys... a dense and rich recording... at times elegant and elegiac, other times ribald and visceral. But the one constant is the joy and clarity of expression.Inch The first track sets the tone InchSerenade comiqueInch is a brief, frantic sax quartet composition that evokes Parisian traffic or perhaps a flock of birds. InchLa Blues,Inch the other quartet selection, evokes the melancholy of New York in the depth of night. InchIt is a treat for the listener to hear this feat of multi-tracking done so well,Inch said reviewer Joseph Viola in Saxophone Journal. Each track is in contrast to the one before it; each represents something different and interesting. To quote Music Magazine again, InchThe Eloquent Saxophone [is] a thoroughly eccentric, invigorating and generous treat.Inch Album Tracks 1. Serenade Comique 2. Sonatine Sportive 3. La Blues 4. Tableaux de Provence 5. Syrinx 6. Romance No. I 7. Caprice en Forme de Valse 8. Etude No. VIII 9. Nola 10. Music for Saxophone and Piano
