About this product

Mary Elizabeth Bowden, praised for her Inchsplendid, brilliantInch artistry (Gramophone), celebrates the narrative power of the trumpet with Storyteller Contemporary Concertos for Trumpet. Bowden is joined by the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra and conductor Allen Tinkham in a collection of new concertos that redefine the trumpet's voice in modern classical music. This recording, a testament to Bowden's commitment to expanding the trumpet repertoire, features world premiere recordings of works by James M. Stephenson, Clarice V. Assad, Vivian Fung, Tyson Gholston Davis, Sarah Kirkland Snider, and Reena Esmail, showcasing the richness and versatility of contemporary classical trumpet music. Two works by James M. Stephenson bookend the program The Storyteller, which pays homage to legendary trumpeter, Adolph Herseth, and Scram!, a spirited display of musical virtuosity. Clarice Assad's Bohemian Queen draws it's inspiration from the life and visual art of Gertrude Abercrombie, known as Inchthe queen of the bohemian artistsInch and active in Chicago's jazz circles. Assad's concerto integrates the classical form with the spontaneity of jazz. Vivian Fung's Trumpet Concerto is written for and inspired by Bowden's pioneering journey as a female trumpeter in a male-dominated field. This continuous, episodic work traverses a spectrum of emotions - from struggle to triumph - culminating in a celebratory frenzy that challenges and expands the instruments' traditional boundaries. Tyson Davis's Veiled Light is a musical interpretation of a James Abbott McNeill Whistler painting, Nocturne in Black and Red, conveyed through an exploration of light and shadow. The piece captures the artwork's serene yet dynamic

Invocation - Symphonies 16   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Invocation - Symphonies 16 [COMPACT DISCS] date 06/10/1997

Duo Ardore - Ricercare   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Excellent, outstanding, exemplary; Inchconforming to the most perfect models;Inch Inchhaving a singular purity of lines;Inch Inchtraditional.Inch These are the various meanings, according to the Grande dizionario della lingua italiana, of the term Inchclassic.Inch From all these points of view, Marco Quagliarini is a classic. Certainly, his music is traditional in the sense that Quagliarini believes in music in the InchclassicInch sense of the instrumental tradition - as a means to express one's thoughts, even the most complex, just like the Viennese classics, of the first and second school. His music surely has points of reference; namely, the classics, that is to say the examples that have been chosen to form a small fleet of excellent models from years of musical history. The result is classic in the sense of formal clarity, of extreme certitude of the ideas and the way of presenting them, in the alternation between horizontal lines and solid harmony. Of purity. Of technique (exemplary and controlled). And also the absence of compromises.

Yvonne Prentki - Boulanger, Lang, Smyth & Strauss: Ich sehe still voruberziehen   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

With this programme, we want to show that these female composers - Josephine Lang and Ethel Smyth - can not only hold their own alongside an established and frequently performed song cycle by one of the Inchbig namesInch, Richard Strauss, but that their emotionality, quality and compositional accuracy are absolutely essential in the great canon of song literature, because that is where they undoubtedly belong, bringing a unique perspective and a message that is still far too little heard to this colourful genre in the most creative way. Duo Yvonne Prentki/Benedikt ter Braak
