Corigliano: The Red Violin Concerto; Violin Sonata

Corigliano: The Red Violin Concerto; Violin Sonata (2007) more music like this

performed by Jeremy Denk (piano), Joshua Bell (violin), Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, Marin Alsop (conductor)
composed by John Corigliano

The title of the Red Violin Concerto by John Corigliano may suggest to some listeners that they're getting an expanded version of the composer's music from the successful film, which grew from a recurring motif in the film soundtrack itself to the closely related The Red Violin: Chaconne for Violin and Orchestra. This is not exactly true; the last ...

composed by Dana Wilson, George Heussenstamm, Greg D'Alessio, Gunther Schuller, John Corigliano, Tison Street

This elegantly rendered disc of chamber music can be recommended to audiences beyond the primary ones of oboe and English horn players. Having these instruments as a common element among the half-dozen highly diverse pieces presented can help the listener get a handle on some of the thornier styles of the twentieth century, especially inasmuch as ...

Credo (2003) more music like this

performed by Hélène Grimaud (piano), Sveriges Radiokor (choir, chorus), Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, Esa-Pekka Salonen (conductor)
composed by Arvo Pärt, John Corigliano, Ludwig van Beethoven

Credo by Hélène Grimaud is one of the most effectively sequenced discs ever released. The movement from the hazy postmodernism of John Corigliano's Fantasia on an Ostinato for solo piano and the passionate Romanticism of Beethoven's Tempest Sonata for solo piano, then on through the Enlightenment ecstasy of Beethoven's Choral Fantasia for piano ...

John Corigliano: String Quartet; Snapshot: Circa 1909; A Black November Turkey; Friedman: String Quartet No. 2 (2007) more music like this

performed by Corigliano Quartet
composed by Jefferson Friedman, John Corigliano

Despite the prominent placement of John Corigliano's two short character pieces, the sentimental Snapshot: Circa 1909 (which is a rather literal interpretation of the cover photograph of the composer's father and uncle) and the quirky and brief string quartet A Black November Turkey (1995), are the disc's most compelling work, and the most likely ...

Caroline Hong Plays Corigliano, Foss & Vine (2005) more music like this

performed by Caroline Hong (piano)
composed by Carl Vine, John Corigliano, Lukas Foss

For her 2005 release on Fleur de Son, Caroline Hong presents three contemporary showpieces that test her skills to the utmost, and impress the listener with her extraordinary seriousness. The music on this CD is not accessibly tonal nor especially approachable for any neo-Romantic concessions; instead, these works are severe in tone, ...

John Corigliano: Pied Piper Fantasy (2004) more music like this

performed by Alexa Still (flute), New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, James Sedares (conductor)
composed by Chen Yi, John Corigliano, Katherine Hoover

Appreciation of this CD may depend on a strong interest in flute music or an admiration of Alexa Still, but there are few other attractions. The three works for flute and orchestra presented here are certainly competent contributions to the modern flute repertoire, but they are also peculiarly uninspired. John Corigliano's The Pied Piper Fantasy ...

John Corigliano: The Red Violin Caprices (2008) more music like this

performed by Philippe Quint (violin), William Wolfram (piano)
composed by John Corigliano, Virgil Thomson

Composer John Corigliano returns again to his very familiar film score The Red Violin for another work based on that score. This time, Corigliano has composed a set of caprices (Theme and Variations) that are immediately reminiscent of Paganini, not just because they are referred to as caprices, but also because of the specific pyrotechnic ...

Michael Sheppard Plays American Piano Music (2007) more music like this

performed by Michael Sheppard (piano)
composed by Earl Wild, George Crumb, John Corigliano, Richard Rodgers, Samuel Barber, William Bolcom

Though billed as a disc of "American Fantasies," exploring the possibilities of transcription in a manner reminiscent of the nineteenth century virtuoso, American pianist Michael Sheppard here attempts something more unusual -- and something more frequently undertaken by foreigners thus far than by American musicians, into whom intensely German ...

performed by Lara St. John (violin), Tim Gill (cello), Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Sarah Ioannides (conductor)
composed by Franz Liszt, John Corigliano, Matthew Hindson

Lara St. John is a performer whose requirements concerning contemporary music are quite stringent, and it has nothing to do with an especially conservative outlook on her part or other not well-considered assumptions. St. John -- like any concert artist -- is constantly on the lookout for new and interesting pieces to perform, and as a star ...

composed by John Corigliano

Celebrated for his vivid orchestral pieces and effective scores for such films as Altered States and The Red Violin, John Corigliano is somewhat less renowned for his chamber music and keyboard oeuvre. Yet his international career took off with the premiere of his Sonata for violin and piano (1963), and he has periodically composed important works ...
