| |  | Victorian Christmas for Brass
Constanze Backes (soprano) Passion des Cuivres The wind quintet Passion de Cuivres was formed in
2003 and has already been praised by Nikolaus
Harnoncourt for its authentic use of period instruments
in reviving this 200-year-old tradition of performing
chamber music written for brass ensembles. In
general, the music-making of Passion des Cuivres is
marked by lighter timbres than those produced by
modern instruments.The sound spectrum of the present
CD is further extended by the soprano Constanze
Backes and by the bells of St Andrew's Church, Sonning
near Reading, which have been cast over a period of
three centuries, their sounds guaranteeing an atmospheric
beginning and end to this musical journey.
In addition to traditional carols by William Sandys (1792-1874), Lewis Henry Redner (1830-1908) and Lowell
Mason (1792-1872), justice is done to the high standards of amateur groups in the 19th century by including
arrangements of Baroque and Romantic choral numbers by composers as diverse as Purcell, Handel and
Mendelssohn. In addition to cornets, horns and trombones, the listener will even hear an ophicleide, a kind
of bass horn that was a forerunner of the euphonium.
These spirited and frequently refreshingly witty arrangements of popular and - at least
outside the UK - less well-known pieces of music are designed, therefore, to warm the
cockles of hearts depressed by the thought of Christmas. | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
