An eclectic and transfixing collection of music from contemporary composers - Part, Schnittke, Adams, Paul Honey, Olivier Messiaen and Joseph Curiale from around the world, each with a truly unique voice in music.Classic FM's John Brunning - presenter of Classic Newsnight, the station's immensely popular drivetime show - commented about this disc: This CD gives a subtle twist to the well-worn formula of calming music compilations: all the works are by 20th Century composers including Paul Honey, Olivier Messiaen, John Adams and Erik Satie. Black Box bills itself as the label with vision, and that vision comes from its founder, Chris Craker. He has put together an imaginative collection of contemplative music that demands to be listened to rather than be played as background over dinner.Messiaen, Olivier : Quatuor pour la fin du temps 5th movement, Louange à l'Eternité de Jésus 8th movement, Louange à l'immortalité de JésusArvo Pärt (1935 - ) : Spiegel im SpiegelSatie, Erik : Gnossiennes (6) for PianoSatie, Erik : Préludes (3) du fils des étoilesMacMillan, James : Angel Only $11.98 - Click here to buy now! |
