Copland the Modernist

Copland the Modernist (2000) more music like this

performed by Garrick Ohlsson (piano), San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, Michael Tilson Thomas (conductor)
composed by Aaron Copland

Aaron Copland may well be the best-known, the most loved, and the all-around greatest of twentieth century American composers, but his music from the '20s and '30s is still relatively unknown, still relatively unloved, and of still questionable greatness. Was Copland the Modernist too far out to connect to a big audience so he re-created himself ...

Copland: Appalachian Spring; Billy the Kid; Rodeo (2005) more music like this

performed by San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, Michael Tilson Thomas (conductor)
composed by Aaron Copland

Aaron Copland's extraordinarily popular ballets, Billy the Kid, Appalachian Spring, and Rodeo, are bread-and-butter works to Michael Tilson Thomas, possibly America's leading authority on the composer but most definitely his greatest living exponent in concert. His repertoire has long included these scores, among many others less celebrated, and ...

Steve Reich: Variations for Winds, Strings and Keyboards: John Adams: Shaker Loops

Steve Reich: Variations for Winds, Strings and Keyboards: John Adams: Shaker Loops (2006) more music like this

performed by San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, Edo de Waart (conductor)
composed by John Adams, Steve Reich

Dutch conductor Edo de Waart has a long history with the music of John Adams: in addition to premiering a number of his works, his recording of Adams' famous opera Nixon in China is the sole currency on the market. In recent years, though, Adams has opted to conduct more and more of his own works: in fact, his rendition of Shaker Loops from 1988 ...

Sibelius: The Symphonies (2006) more music like this

performed by San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, Herbert Blomstedt (conductor)
composed by Jean Sibelius

Decca has been releasing cycles of the symphonies of Sibelius about once a decade since the introduction of the long playing record. In the '50s, there was the stern-faced Anthony Collins with the lean London Symphony Orchestra. In the '60s, there was the baby-faced Lorin Maazel with the lush Vienna Philharmonic. In the '80s, there was the craggy ...

Mahler: Symphony No. 5 [Hybrid SACD] (2006) more music like this

performed by San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, Michael Tilson Thomas (conductor)
composed by Gustav Mahler

There are plenty of fine recordings of Gustav Mahler's popular Symphony No. 5 in C sharp minor, but each decade seems to produce its own landmark renditions: Bernstein's in the 1960s, Solti's in the '70s, Sinopoli's in the '80s, and Abbado's in the '90s. For the first decade of the twenty first century, Michael Tilson Thomas' riveting 2005 version ...

performed by Marina Shaguch (soprano), Michelle DeYoung (mezzo-soprano), Sergei Leiferkus (baritone), Thomas Moser (tenor), San Francisco Symphony Chorus (choir, chorus), San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, Michael Tilson Thomas (conductor)
composed by Gustav Mahler

A work of Gustav Mahler's youth, Das klagende Lied has much in common stylistically with Des knaben Wunderhorn and the early symphonies, yet it has never enjoyed a similar popularity, due in part to its awkward construction, huge instrumental and vocal demands, and atypical operatic character; perhaps most of all, its unfamiliarity owes to its ...

The Venetian Brass Album (2007) more music like this

performed by Los Angeles Brass Society, Los Angeles Philharmonic [members of], Peter Sacco (tenor), San Francisco Symphony Orchestra (members of), Lester Remsen (conductor)
composed by Andrea Gabrieli, Bastian Chilese, Claudio Merulo, Costanzo Antegnati, Gioseffo Guami, Giovanni Gabrieli, Girolamo Frescobaldi, Orindio Bartolino, Peter Sacco, Pietro Lappi

This disc reissues music from two separate LPs of the late '70s, connected only by the use of a brass ensemble. It's quite a lurch from the Venetian Renaissance ensemble music heard on the first part of the disc to the Three Psalms for brass quintet and tenor voice of contemporary composer Peter Sacco at the end, but the Venetian performances ...
