A Lark Ascending Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) Some of my favourite Stravinsky. Never heard these on piano before. Very nice. Disc 3 Edited May 6, 2016 by A Lark Ascending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 On 5/3/2016 at 8:56 PM, jeffcrom said: James Houlik Plays the Tenor Saxophone (Golden Crest LP). Spun this for the first time a few years, since it was misplaced. (The story is in another thread.) The most substantial pieces here are by Walter Hartley - "Poem" and a sonata. But I've always been fascinated by William Duckworth's "Pitt County Excursions," a four-movement suite in which the movements time out at 1:02, 1:03, :24, and :41. The saxophone part of "Air," the second movement, consists entirely of multiphonics. I've only heard a copy of this, share your regard for it, and am totally delighted by that cover photo!

A Lark Ascending Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) Absolute beauty of a disc. The piano quintet especially - some lovely 'orientalisms' like in Debussy and Ravel. 130 and the Grosse Fuge Edited May 6, 2016 by A Lark Ascending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Lark Ascending Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 Disc 4. Absolutely cracking box, is this. A very different Byrd to the devotional choral music you usually hear. Almost folky in places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 James Dawson - Soprano Saxophone (Crystal LP). I'm not sure why I haven't played this mint-condition 1982 LP for a while. Dawson has a beautiful sound and is a very sensitive player, as are all his accompanists. The music is all from between 1957 and 1980; I particularly like Walter Hartley's off-center "Diversions" for soprano sax and piano and Warren Benson's conservative, but gorgeous Quintet for saxophone and string quartet.

A Lark Ascending Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 (edited) Disc 2 of the fourth - pick'n mix symphonic poems and overtures; just the Dvorak on the latter. All on headphones on a brilliant summer's day whilst pottering in the garden. They say it's warmer here than Ibiza. Music's better here, too. ******************* And the following morning....
