Product details
Exposé
1. a musical exposition
2. an exhibition
3. an exposing of the artists' personality through his/her
work.
The works featured on this CD span nearly a quarter of a century
of composition in the field of chamber music by Peter Tahourdin.
They reflect Peter's changing approach to composition, and
encompass a myriad of influences and themes, from Indian ragas to
the Carmina Burana; with its juxtaposition of the sacred
and the profane.
Featuring many of Australia's finest musicians including Michael
Kieran Harvey, Kirsten Williams, Jeannie Marsh, Frederik Shade,
Rudolf Osadnik, Arturs Ezergailis, Peter Neville, Bradley Daley,
Carl Rosman and Phillipa Safey.
Dialogues No. 1 & No. 4 from the Dialogue
series are concerned with the notion of direct yet varied
interplay between performers and are inspired by conversations
between two people, in which a topic is broached, discussed and
extended before a new different topic is introduced.
Raga Music No. 1 & 4 - take their structure from the
procedures that underlie the unfolding of the raga in north
Indian classical music. Raga Music 1 employs the poem
The Starlight Night by late nineteenth century priest,
poet and mystic, Gerard Manley Hopkins.
Songs of Love and Fortune is a song cycle based on texts
from the Carmina Burana, a collection of poems from the
twelfth and thirteenth century that cover a wide range of topics
from the sacred and profound to the comic and bawdy.
And finally the title track Expose performed by the
leading Australian pianist, Michael Kieran-Harvey.
This recording was supported by the Victorian Government through
Arts Victoria - Department of Premier and Cabinet.
