Shostakovich: Symphony No 5, Etc / Previn, Serebrier, Lso
 $14.29 
This may be composer John Adams's most ambitious undertaking to date, one that moves him further out of the "minimalist" category. A massive, sprawling opus, it bombards the listener with a dizzying array of swirling melodies, chugging rhythms, vivid sonic colors, and lush orchestral textures. Yet for all its complexity, this three-movement work never overwhelms the ear. Adams makes the work emotionally compelling by creating a variety of moods that sometimes blend smoothly and at other times collide with a clamor.
Poignant melodies churn and percolate until they explode into raucous climaxes; jubilant fanfares crash into craggy dissonance; motifs that dance and spin as if out of control somehow resolve into peaceful reveries. It ...
| | Lou Harrison Serenado CD (2003) (Import)
Shostakovich: Symphony No 5, Etc / Previn, Serebrier, Lso
$16.55 
Lou Harrison has not written much for the guitar, a shame. For Serenado, David Tanenbaum has rounded up about every guitar piece in his book and transcribed a few more for harp and piano to come up with a delightful program of 50-so minutes. Writing for the instrument, Harrison favored simplicity and conciseness (many tracks clock in at under three minutes), developing gripping melodies in unusual modes and tunings. The set includes one work previously unrecorded, "Scenes From Nek Chand," written in 2001-2002 for a custom-made microtonal National Steel Guitar. The long sustain of the instrument and Harrison's fondness for Asian melodies make the piece sound like it was written for a Chinese pipa. Its beauties are more difficult to decipher than those of the "Serenade for Guitar" (1978), a piece that may very well appeal to guitarists with no prior contact with contemporary music. The six harp pieces, presented first in the track list, are more spacious. Their mannered grace seems to be borrowed once again from Asian ceremonial music. The presence of simple percussion accompaniment in some of them (by William Winant, Scott Evans, and Joel Davel) adds a flavor reminiscent of Harry Partch's later works (even though they were much more percussive than that). What strikes in Serenado is how easy it is to listen to and how easy Tanenbaum makes the scores appear. Some may consider ...

| | Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest DVDs (2006)
Shostakovich: Symphony No 5, Etc / Previn, Serebrier, Lso
$29.29 
Seeking respite from his fate with Davy Jones, Jack enlists the aid of Tia Dalma (Naomie Harris), a practitioner of the supernatural, in an effort to locate the Dead Man's Chest that supposedly contains Jones's still-beating heart. Whoever possesses the heart controls Jones, and thereby controls the seas. And so the adventure continues as Jack, Will, and the Black Pearl crew track down the Flying Dutchman in search of redemption. This rollicking summer adventure, directed by Gore Verbinski (THE WEATHER MAN, THE RING), features multiple intersecting storylines, unique stunts, and a pithy script that lets each main character shine, while the costumes and makeup for Jones and his sea creature crew are nothing short of spectacular.
Additional Footage; Soundtrack English; Soundtrack Spanish; Dolby Digital 5.1 Re
The second part of a trilogy, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST is a fantastic tale of pirates, love, and the supernatural. Blacksmith Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and his upper-class love Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) are preparing to wed when they are confronted with a warrant for their arrests because they helped the notorious pirate Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) escape the authorities. Their only choice for a pardon is to find Jack and return to Lord Cutler Beckett (Tom Hollander) with the flamboyant captain's compass. Will's attempt to ...

Shostakovich: Symphony No 5, Etc / Previn, Serebrier, Lso
$8.49
In early 1960, only a couple of months after the successful Broadway opening of what would turn out to be the final musical with songs by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, The Sound of Music, the radio network of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) planned a documentary on Rodgers & Hammerstein and sent Tony Thomas to New York to interview them. He spoke to each separately on the same day, and those two conversations, each running roughly half an hour, are presented on this album. (The annotations state that the interviews took place in February 1960. In the interview with Hammerstein, however, he makes a point of noting that the day before had marked the 75th anniversary of the birth of his former partner, Jerome Kern, which would make the date of the interview January 28, 1960.) Although they took place at the end of the ...
