Product details
This is the first disc of its kind to be released in Australia -
an overview of important works written for cello and piano,
spanning a period of 108 years. The earliest work is the Grainger
Scandinavian Suite, a tour de force for both performers and a
work that deserves a place in the concert hall. Other heritage
masterpieces include Ian Farr's Sonata, a work which repays the
time spent to becoming acquainted with it, and neglected since
its initial performances, and Don Banks' seminal Three
Studies.
The latest work on the CD is one of several of Martin
Wesley-Smith's Papuan works: Morning Star Lament, which
requires the cellist to sing. Elena Kats-Chernin's Blue
Silence, Alicia Grant's Night Spell and Ian Munro's
Lucy Sleeps all cast a gentle spell, which is totally
dispelled by Hindson's racy Jungle Fever.
David Pereira teams up with Timothy Young (pianist at the
Australian National Academy of Music) to present these works.
This CD release is part of Tall Poppies' 21st birthday
celebrations.
Duration: 71 min.
Liner notes include program notes and biographical notes on the composers and performers.
