A Lark Ascending Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Another listen to this record from a few years back. Really engaging compositions from this young composer - especially like the clarinet concerto. I really need to listen to them one at a time rather than all in one go. There's a concert of one of these pieces plus a new piano concerto (along with a music by Boulez and Carter) in Birmingham in March that I'm strongly tempted to make the journey for. Two other discs that have been bewitching me of late. The recording quality of the Norgard is stunning. And today's seasonal choice...  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Lark Ascending Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Three of the discs containing Christmas music. Can't have played that in 20 years - what a delightful piece. Wears its Wagner on its sleeve but also has the feel of Wunderhorn era Mahler. Really enjoyed it. No 2 from the Sibelius; 6, In the Fen Country and an orchestral arrangement of 'On Wenlock Edge' from the RVW. 3 & 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alankin Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) 2 hours ago, soulpope said: Beautiful .... I didn't know Gruenberg, so I looked him up.  This concerto was commissioned by Heifetz in 1944, premiered by Ormandy in Philadelphia and recorded by Monteux in 1945. Gruenberg did a lot of film work in Hollywood from 1939-1950 had several Academy Award nominations.  He was an uncredited contributor to the score for John Ford's classic Western "Stagecoach."
