Richard Strauss: The Happy Workshop And Serenade O
Label: REFERENCE RECORDINGS Catalog: FR-745 Format: COMPACT DISC Carnegie Mellon Wind Ensemble; Vosburgh, GeorgeReference Recordings is proud to present our first album with the CARNEGIE MELLON WIND ENSEMBLE, conducted and produced by GRAMMY®-winner GEORGE VOSBURGH. Unusual and underperformed repertoire has long been a hallmark of this ensemble’s programming. This album exemplifies that, with the pairing of Strauss’ 1945 Symphony for Winds in E-flat Major (The Happy Workshop) and his 1881 Serenade for Winds in E-flat Major, Op. 7. Notes writer Amanda Vosburgh states: “Taken together, the Serenade Op. 7 and the “Happy Workshop” form the bookends to a long and diverse body of work, marked by innovative chromaticism and complexity, but tethered at either end to the classical tradition.” Price: $24.98 |
