Rumi - Quatrains of Love


Lisa Delan (soprano), Kristin Pankonin (piano), Matt Haimovitz (cello), David Krakauer (clarinet)

This album is a follow up to the album ‘ If a Song be Worth a Smile’. The composers and lyricists are (same as for the previous album) all American and still alive. Many of the songs were specially written for Lisa Delan and some are world premiere recordings.

Lisa Delan wrote for the CD-booklet :

“When I recorded the partner CD to The Hours Begin to Sing – And If the Song Be Worth a Smile – I was delighted to include four premiere recordings, one of which I commissioned for the CD. I am thrilled with The Hours Begin to Sing to introduce four more premiere recordings, three of which were written specifically for this disc. And although I cannot claim parentage in this drama of creation, I am honoured to have been cast in the role of midwife.”

Scherzo Pensieroso


Conrad Tao (piano)

This album comprises all works for piano solo composed by Gordon Getty between the nineteen sixties and today. This is what the composer wrote about them in the liner notes: “The five called Homework Suite date from my year at San Francisco Conservatory of Music (1962). Andantino and Scherzo Pensiersoso were written this year. It might as easily been the other way around. Fifty years ago, I could steal unconsciously from others and now more from myself, but the language and perspective are the same”.

Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks & Münchner Rundfunkorchester, Ulf Schirmer

This opera is based on the character Plump Jack, featured in Shakespeare’s Henry IV and Henry V.

In the third scene Getty uses some of the music and words from Henry V’s coronation.

Getty’s aim is to “touch the heart” with the same directness as a film score.

“Getty's opera is stuffed with period-evoking quotations, and even this shortened 'concert-version', squeezed on to a single disc, feels long and unmemorable. But the strong cast makes a fine team.” BBC Music Magazine, December 2012 ***

This is a box with 10 SACDs to celebrate PentaTone's 10th anniversary. From each year of PentaTone's existence we have taken one SA-CD. Not necessarily the best sellers and award winners, but a fine selection presenting as much as possible all the artists PentaTone is/has been working with. As a bonus we have added a sampler SA-CD with tracks of other PentaTone albums (so the box includes 11 SA-CDs). On this sampler you will also find surround sound effects and test tones (which enable to adjust the position of the speakers of a HiFi set into the ideal position).
