for orchestra. Par BARRY GERALD. 'The title, No other people., is taken from Raymond Roussel's New Impressions of Africa, a fifty-nine page poem which took him fifteen years to write - a length of time mainly caused by his tortuous compositional methods. In Roussel, sentences are broken down in maze-like ways, often producing others which relate to the sound of the original. I'm not aware of any d…

There aren't many banjos players more widely heard, or who have performed before more people, than Ron Block. Working with Alison Krauss and Union Station since 1991, Ron's distinctive banjo sound has become nearly as much a part of the group sound as Alison's voice. Ron has taught in a limited number of worshops, but this is his first instructional DVD of any kind, offering a detailed look at his…

Par VIRGILIO JOSEPH. Non standaard harmony trio. The conservative explanation for this piece was a simple desire to exploit repeated notes in a brass trio. An underlying ABA form can be discerned after which there is a 'bridge” in 5/8. Subsequently the music returns to the opening motifs. Hence, Over The Bridge And Back. The more amusing explanation was provided by my spouse who upon hearing the m…

Par CURNOW JAMES. The title, SILVER RIBBON CHANTEYS, comes from the fascinating history of Ohio and the collections of great old folk songs that came into existence because of the Ohio-Erie Canal. There are three distinctly different movements, each featuring one historic canal folk song. The diverse folksongs call for a wide range of playing styles and make a well-balanced and interesting combina…

Par DVORAK ANTONIN. The profound impression it makes on us is due in part to the sequence of variations on a death motif that seems to have been borrowed from the beginning of the second Kyrie from Bach's Mass in B minor. Written in 1890, it was commissioned by the publisher Novello for the Birmingham Music Festival and premiered there under the direction of the composer on 9 October 1891. For thi…
