Soarbji: Concerto Per Suonare Da Me Solo / Jonathan Powell Classical Review


Customer Soarbji: Concerto Per Suonare Da Me Solo / Jonathan Powell Reviews 




Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Remarkable achievement
Jonathan Powell performance is amazing on two counts: the music itself is fiendishly difficult (as is most of Sorabji's oeuvre) and he not only overcomes these technical hurdles but plays with great command. This is the piece that Sorabji thought best represented his true inner musical self, so if you're a KS fan, it's a must have.

Soarbji: Concerto Per Suonare Da Me Solo / Jonathan Powell
CD $14.49  4.3 stars
The Organ's 2002 debut EP Sinking Hearts was more captivating than most of that year's full-length releases: over the course of just 15 minutes, the band crafted chiaroscuro meditations on falling in and out of love that were just as light and jangly as they were dark and brooding. The EP was a promising beginning, and Grab That Gun, the Organ's first album, builds on that promise by delivering more appealingly moody music instead of reinventing the band's sound. It's tempting, initially, to be slightly disappointed that the Organ didn't broaden its sonic territory. But, even though the music remains remarkably focused, Grab That Gun proves that the band has plenty of room for expression within its rather limited palette of droning organs, succinct drumming and sharp, upturned guitar lines that give new meaning to the term "hook." While this sound comes from the legacy of '80s college rock -- at times suggesting a fusion of the Smiths' witty, bouncy melancholy and the on-the-sleeve passion of Throwing Muses -- and also has ties to some of the other bands remaking new wave and post-punk in their own images, the Organ and Grab That Gun have a freshness that isn't often heard in any kind of rock music. This is partly due to the simplicity of the band's playing; some call it amateurish, although innocent is probably a more apt description. There's also a remarkable sincerity to the band's music, a large part of which comes from singer Katie Sketch's striking vocals and lyrics. Like the Muses' Kristin Hersh, Sketch possesses a voice that's vulnerable, self-assured and ever so slightly unearthly. And though lyrics like "There is nothing I can do / But cut and think about you" and "Our hearts didn't come together / But I saw the two collide" can seem like the worst kind of diary rants on paper, they're more dramatic than drama queen when Sketch sings them. Melancholy covers Grab That Gun like a reverse umbrella, particularly on "Steven Smith" and "There Is Nothing I Can Do

Black Heart Procession Spell CD  (2006) Digipak

Soarbji: Concerto Per Suonare Da Me Solo / Jonathan Powell
CD $12.95  Top 500 Audio Samples
THE SPELL, the seventh release from San Diego's the Black Heart Procession, combines the band's early minimalist tendencies with the rock richness of 2002's AMORE DEL TROPICO. The Procession still wade in dark, melancholic waters, offering up Gothic Americana soundscapes of bleak introspection, but on the aptly named THE SPELL they add inspired songcraft, rock guitars, and pointed lyrical themes--political and otherwise--to their trademark atmospherics. The blend of elements, along with a sense of underlying tension in the playing and song structures, makes THE SPELL one of the band's most consistent and exciting releases. Recording information: SDRL (2005). Unknown Contributor Role: David Babbitt. The Black Heart Procession: Jimmy LaValle, Pall A. Jenkins, Joe Plummer, Matthew Resovich, Tobias Nathaniel. Personnel: Paul Jenkins (vocals, guitar, lap steel guitar, organ, synthesizer, musical saw); Tobias Nathaniel (guitar, piano, organ, Wurlitzer organ, timpani); Matthew Resovich (lap steel guitar, violin, Wurlitzer organ, synthesizer); Jimmy LaValle (piano, organ).
