Daugherty Soars Again with Blue Electra
This release adds three more masterpieces of Americana to Daugherty's catalog.
Three Polish Voices, One Bold Sound
A fine album of music. And one that demonstrates just how diverse the music of a single country can be.
Derek Scott’s Dance Suites: Defying Academia
Scott's Dance Suites may be frowned on by academia, but they brought a smile to my face.
Ronaldo Miranda’s Piano Works Shine in New Release
Pianist Eduardo Monteiro brings a lot of attitude to his playing. And it's what Miranda's music requires. This is music to be enjoyed.
Falletta & Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra Dazzle with New Music
Wonderful, exquisitely beautiful classical music is being written every day. All it needs in an audience. JoAnn Falletta and the Buffalo Philharmonic have done their part.
Karl Weigl Symphony Recalls Old Vienna
This is another excellent addition to the series. With only two symphonies left to record, I hope we’ll also get to hear some of his shorter works.
Johann Friedrich Fasch: Orchestral Gems from Tempesta di Mare
This is an outstanding recording and a remarkable series. I highly recommend all four volumes to anyone interested in Baroque music or in tracing the roots of the Classical era. It’s all here.
Bruckner: From the Archives, Vol. 6
No matter how many Bruckner recordings you own, this series should be in your collection. There are some truly insightful performances here. And a few that made me hear these very familiar works in new ways.
Charles Ives: Odds and Ends that Somehow Work
This album is definitely one for the Ives completist. But it's also an entertaining listen for anyone wanting to hear something completely different.
