TOWER, J.: String Quartets Nos. 3-5 / Dumbarton Quintet (Daedalus Quartet, Miami String Quartet, McMillen)



Quote:
Widely regarded as one of America’s pre-eminent living composers, Joan Tower, who is also a pianist, is particularly devoted to chamber music. Organic structures underpin her string quartets—there is ‘heat from within’ and radiance of texture in Incandescent, her third quartet, virtuosic interplay in the fourth, Angels, and fluid connections in White Water, her fifth quartet. Tower is only the third composer—after Stravinsky and Copland—to be commissioned by the Dumbarton Oaks Foundation, and her Dumbarton Quintet pursues extremes of moods both consonant and dissonant.
I can see this appealing to music lovers who enjoy Penderecki (although this isn’t that aggressive) or Bartok.

Hildegard von bingen: O eterne deus



Quote:
Women’s vocal ensemble Vajra Voices presents their debut recording, O Eterne Deus- Music of Hildegard von Bingen. Also known as Saint Hildegard, Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179) was a German Benedictine abbess, composer, philosopher, writer, Christian mystic, and polymath. She composed some of the earliest liturgical dramas and morality plays. Vajra Voices is directed by Karen R. Clark, and the ensemble is joined by multi-instrumentalist Shira Kammen for this recording. “One cannot help but be deeply moved by the exquisite rendition of Hildegard’s music by Vajra Voices. Their singing brings Hildegard into the room with all her passion and power and the Spirit arrives too along with angels eager to wake us up.”

Overtures to Bach
Matt Haimovitz

Quote:
He invited six composers to each write a new piece inspired by the Preludes of Bach's Suites for Solo Cello, BWV 1007-1012. Those composers are Philip Glass, Vijay Iyer, Luna Pearl Woolf, David Sanford, Roberto Sierra and Du Yun. Haimovitz pairs the new works with Bach's originals in a striking gesture of recontextualization.
