| | Inscape CD Barry, Michael CDS
Inscape covers a wide range of styles, from the haunting Baroque beauty of Bach's Lute Suite in A Minor (originally for cello) to the playful joy of Duane Allman's Little Martha. Brazilian music is well represented with the lyrical, folkloric Sounds of Bells by Guimaraes, the innovative harmony and melodic beauty of the Gavota Choro by Villa-Lobos, and the reflective, moody romance of Solidao, a Jobim/Fernandes composition. La Catedral, by the great guitar composer Augustin Barrios, has a reverent, religious quality in the first two movements, followed by the fiery final allegro movement. Fernando Sor's elegant and classical Minuet No. 10, in a style reminiscent of Mozart, the flamenco-like impressionism of the Albeniz Asturias, and the Moorish beauty of Tarrega's Capricho Arabe round out this diverse recording with a Spanish flavor. In all cases, performances were chosen based on their uniqueness and ability to convey a mood. Rather than become background music, as do many other guitar records, Inscape draws you in and asks you to listen.

| | More Than 50 Most Loved Hymns CDs (2005)
Inscape
$13.75 In an era when the definition of religious music has expanded to include everything from Christian death-metal to gospel rap, it's nice to know one can still find an album of traditional prayerful tunes. MORE THAN 50 MOST LOVED HYMNS collects popular church songs performed in a sweeping orchestral/choral style that will evoke warm memories of the grand holiday cathedral services of yesteryear.
Perhaps inspired by the sounds of angels on high, the music here is majestic in a vintage MGM film-score manner, complete with huge string sections, tinkling harp, and vocals soaring to the heavens. Highlights include the Celtic-tinged "This Is My Father's World," which features ...

Spike Jones, probably the only band leader who ever conducted with a starter pistol, was an aural Dadaist years ahead of his time. He brought the art of pop and classical music parody to its absolute apogee. Along with his crack band, the City Slickers, Jones also bequeathed several new instruments to the traditional orchestra, among them the latrineophone (a toilet seat strung with catgut).
This Jones anthology, released (oddly or appropriately enough) by BMG's avant-garde classical label, is interestingly programmed, ...

| | Glenn Hardy Solo Piano II:Compositions & Improvisations CD (2005)
Inscape
$12.55 Glenn Hardy was born in Ventura, California, USA in 1950 and began piano study at the age of four. He was raised in a musically diverse home where his much older brother, an accomplished pianist and clarinetist, was a primary influence. Through access to his brother's extensive record collection, Glenn developed an early interest in a wide range of music including classical, blues, jazz, and big band. In the 60's, rock and folk music were added to the mix, setting the stage for a later career in which the cross-cultural and polystylistic musical tendencies of postmodernism would emerge. In 1968, Glenn received a music scholarship to study piano performance at University of the Pacific Conservatory. Here, he began to investigate medieval and renaissance music, the harpsichord, music of other cultures, and various forms of improvisation. Here, also, his German piano instructor demanded that he stop wasting his time improvising and playing jazz, and "Get back to Brahms!" This was not to be. Unable to reconcile his compelling interest in music outside of the classical mainstream with the required course of study, Glenn left the university and the world of piano recitals in 1971. He traveled extensively in the United States, Canada, and Europe, including pilgrimages to Salzburg, Bonn, and Vienna, the birthplaces of Mozart, Beethoven, and Schubert. Returning to California in 1973, he began performing and conducting early music in the San Francisco bay area. From 1975 to 1981 he owned and operated The Harpsichord Workshop of San Francisco, a center devoted to the building and maintenance of early keyboard instruments. During this time he also studied jazz piano, and began composing in a style which reflected his various musical influences. In 1982, Glenn left California for New England where, in addition to composing for piano, organ, chamber groups and orchestra, he collaborates with his wife, Margaret, a poet, on vocal and choral works. Together they have written THE FOUR ARTISTS'" for vocal soloists, piano, and chorus: a look at the relationship between artists and society, THE AGE OF EXPLORATION'" for soprano, cello, and harpsichord, which examines the roles of women in the renaissance and today, and ...
