An Important Britten Collection.......2005-03-23
Another in the reissues from Naxos from the valuable Britten series on the now-defunct Collins Classics, this program was originally published in 1998. Steuart Bedford is undoubtedly the leading Britten conductor and this is left in no doubt in this delightful collection of Britten works that span forty years of his composing life, from the 1934 'Simple Symphony' to the gorgeous set of variations for viola and orchestra, 'Lachrymae,' from 1976. All are played with clarity and élan.
The 'Simple Symphony' for strings is probably the most familiar piece here. It was put together by Britten from pieces he had written in childhood and the movements have witty titles: Boisterous Bourrée, Playful Pizzicato, Sentimental Sarabande, and Frolicsome Finale. Bedford sorts it forth in appropriately simple fashion, letting the music speak for itself. The Northern Sinfonia strings play beautifully for him. 'Temporal Variations' from 1936 was originally for oboe and piano but the present oboe soloist, Nicholas Daniel, suggested to composer Colin Matthews about ten years ago that he arrange it for oboe and strings and that is the version heard here. It was premièred at the Aldeburgh Festival with Bedford leading the English Chamber Orchestra. It is a neoclassic theme and eight variations in the form of character pieces with titles such as 'March,' 'Oration,' 'Commination' (an archaic term meaning 'denunciation'), 'Resolution.' Daniel is fine advocate for this fourteen-minute miniature oboe concerto.
'A Charm of Lullabies' Op. 41 (1947) is also fairly well-known and has been recorded many times, but usually with the original piano accompaniment. Here we again have an arrangement by Colin Matthews, this time for chamber orchestra, done for the Indianapolis Symphony. It is sung here with simple intensity and wonderful diction by mezzo Catherine Wyn-Rogers. 'Suite on English Folk Tunes' Op. 90 (1974) subtitled 'A time there was ...' was Britten's last purely orchestral work. It combines some seventeenth-century folksongs from Playford's 'The Dancing Master' with songs collected in the twentieth-century from rural sources. This is vintage late Britten with rhythmic complexity, brilliant orchestration and open-faced tunefulness. One hears echoes of the 'Sea Interludes' and 'Prince of the Pagodas' in the creative orchestration.
For me the most riveting of the works recorded here is Britten's masterful 'Lachrymae' Op. 48a (1976) for solo viola and string orchestra. Originally written for viola and piano for William Primrose in 1950, Britten recast it for viola and strings in 1976 for a performance by Cecil Aronowitz and the ECO at Aldeburgh. It is a theme and variations based on two tunes of Dowland: primarily 'If my complaints could passions be' and, in the sixth variation, 'Flow my tears.' Of course the title 'Lachrymae' is taken from the latter song and generally reflects the overall tone of the piece, although Variation 8 is a lively march. It makes brilliant use of the melancholy timbre of the viola and is played movingly here by Philip Dukes. This is the astringent Britten familiar to us from such works as 'Phaedra' and 'Death in Venice.' For all its restriction of means, it is a brilliant and moving work.
We can only be grateful that Naxos has kept these wonderful performances of Britten's music alive by reissuing the Collins/Bedford series.
Highly recommended.

Vietnam: Reflections.......2005-08-28
This is a great follow-up to his first cd on Vietnam I was really impressed with the whole texture of the cd I would truly recommend it as a must buy
A Fine release.......2005-08-11
I was intriuged by the subj of this not having previously heard any other of Billy Bang's releases. I was hooked by the opening hard bop groove of "Reflections". It blends well with Asian melodies and is a fine opener. "Ru Con" i believe is a VIetnamese folk song done exceptionally well with Co Boi Nguyen on vocals. On "Lock and Load" I was expecting a dark and sullen sort of atmosphere however this is one swirling, romping, all out jam.
From the packaging (exceptional!!) to the sound quality this is a release to have.

Refreshing and poetic.......2000-08-06
One tends to discard contemporary composers who are, for one reason or another, not standing in the limelight. Dominick Argento, born in York, Pennsylvania, in 1927 is a prominent opera composer in the United States, but he is not very well known in Europe. The Valentino Dances are somewhat reminiscent to De Falla, spiced up with a bit Stravinksy. Surprising is the use of the accordion in this impressive piece of music. For a full appreciation of his music, listen to A Ring of Time, a four-piece suite, which to my humble opinion is a masterpiece. The sound quality of this Reference Recording is stunning as usual, although the human voice tends to be a bit remote and hollow. The full dynamics of the orchestra are best heard on excellent Hi-fi equipment.

Let's Clarify.......2005-12-03
For future reference Di and others:
I quote:
"'Scottish Reflections' the music included consists of early Scotch, English, and Irish folk tunes."
Scotch is what you drink
A Scot, or Scottish, is what you are.
The only exception is the 'Scotch-Irish' in the U.S., this is the Traditional name for the Scots who moved to Ireland, then moved to the southern U.S. states.
Okay, I'm done ranting.
This CD is extremely good, The bonnie wee lassie, Bonnie Ridout can play a fiddle like nae other. She does our Celtic tunes proud!
Sad tunes...........2002-12-07
Although this DVD collection is entitled `Scottish Reflections' the music included consists of early Scotch, English, and Irish folk tunes. All of the tunes appear to have been included in earlier DVD collections by Rideout. Gathered together, they form a haunting tribute to lost loved ones and past times.
Many of the pieces are viscerally connected to the early 19th Century when the British were battling Napoleon. Pieces such as `The Source of Spey' and `Periwig were dance tunes published in the Captain Simon Fraser Collection of 1815. `Lamentation for the Fallen Heroes at Waterloo' provides a haunting retrospective of the definitive battle. It takes little imagination to visualize sailors dancing to fiddle tunes such as `Itchy Fingers' or `Highland Laddie' (accompanied by a penny whistle), or soldiers sitting around camp fires at night contemplating home life and the chances of death while listening to `Lament for Limerick' (Ireland) or `Lochaber No More' (Scotland). Even the waltzes such as `Irish Lamentation' (England) are retrospective and `Gloomy Winter' says it all. A more recent piece, `Dunblane', by Charlie Glendinning commemorates the deaths of 16 school children and their teacher in 1996.
Using varied bowing techniques, Bonnie Rideout has created a set of poignant renditions of old and new tunes. National Sottish Harp Champion Sue Richards joins Rideout for several of these pieces, including `Unst Bridal March', `Cro Kintale' and the various lamentations. Perfect music for contemplation on a snowy winter's eve.
a must to add to any scottish music collection.......2002-08-30
This CD really fits the bill for beautiful and heartfelt scottish fiddle music. It's a must to add to my Scottish music collection. The fiddle playing shines throughout and is clearly out front of all the instruments yet the other instruments create beautiful harmonies and variations with the fiddle. The music on this Cd features Bonnie Rideout's fiddling in performances that have interesting arrangements with a lot of variety to them because of all the other instruments. Its music that many Bonnie Rideout fans and Scottish music fans might miss out because the CD features tracks from other outstanding Celtic musicians and early music musicians that are not usually associated with Scottish music. Its a gem!
divine and elegant.......2002-08-16
Wow, this is a wonderful CD and is a nice follow up to her other solo albums such as her last one called Scottish Fire. This one is a little more relaxed and easy listening- good after a long hard day of work or good for a long car trip too. It's got real nice group ensemble playing with Celtic harp and viola da gamba and also tts a MUST HAVE to just add to your Celtic collection of CDs or if you are a Bonnie Rideout fan. It's got some very fine arrangements and great tunes on it and the Scottish fiddle is really featured well and stands out clearly from the other instruments yet blends with them too. The original tune called "dunblane" written by Charlie Glendinning, a piper from the City of Washington Pipe Band is so moving it makes you cry and yet there are lively tunes too and a variety of sounds and unusual instruments played by members of the early music group Hesperus. The liner notes are very informative about some of the tunes and the use of Scottish fiddle and ornamentation and the bagpipe traditions.

This is an extremely varied collection, ranging from a series of klezmer melodies to the atonal weirdness of Varèse's Density 21.5 (which Eugenia Zukerman makes quite lyrical). Highlights along the way include familiar pieces by Debussy and Honegger, and an oddly amusing set by Bennett called Six Tunes for the Instruction of Singing-birds (something actually attempted during the Renaissance!) Katherine Hoover's heart-stoppingly beautiful Kokopeli is enough reason to buy the disc, as is her Reflections. Not all the performances are prime, but if the flute appeals to you, here is a unique collection of flute and nothing else. --Leslie Gerber
Customer Reviews:
GREAT!!.......2002-02-10
I love this CD so much! I bought about 20 copies! I teach flute and have my students buy this CD. I want them to get this lovely sound in their ear.Her playing is with style and she has a love for life that really comes through in this recording.
I can't praise this enough!!!
Lack of rhythm, lack of interest.......2001-07-29
This was purchased as a reference tool and another idea for interpretation for Varese's Density 21.5. I was disappointed to hear her lack of regard towards rhythm and what is explicitly stated in the music. Varese's Density is to be strictly followed in tempo, articulation and especially rhythm. Zuckerman disregards some tempo changes and at times actually leaves out beats in a measure. Also, in Honegger's 'Danse de la Chevre' there are some questionable rhythms.
On the other hand, the selections from other composers are played beautifully and very musically. The klemzer pieces and the pieces of birds are very good and very accurate.
This cd will be used as background or mood music in the future. This would be an excellent cd if one was not interested in a well rounded performance.
