Bantock succeeded Sir Edward Elgar at Birmingham University in 1908. During his time there he developed an interest in large-scale choral composition, producing among other works, his choral masterpiece 'Omar Khayyam.' In addition to three soloists and large chorus, Bantock involves a large orchestra with two full string complements, arranged to the left and right of the conductor. In an atmospheric caravan scene Bantock also makes use of authentic camel bells.

Elgar: Symphony No. 1; Organ Sonata
$17.75 "Kyriakides handles emotive materials with a sensitivity that gives intelligible form to personal memories and volatile feelings."(The Wire, UK)"..a musical narrative from whose spell it is hard to escape. And just like with Steve Reich's or Terre Thaemlitz's music you wouldn't even want to try to escape it. The impact of the sligthly transcendental and unreal mixture of contemplativeness and degeneration is just too strong."(Debug, Germany)"...this is the most beautiful music I've heard from the always excellent Cypriot composer."(Touching Extremes, Italy)-----The Buffer Zone is the 3rd musical drama of Yannis Kyriakides to appear on UNSOUNDS.It can be considered a sister piece to his 'conSPIracy cantata' (2000) as it deals in some way with the legacy of the cold war, and spaces that have arisen from those conflicts. The Buffer Zone' composed and presented in the theatre in 2004, is a work that explores boundaries of separation. It draws its material from the UN Buffer Zone in Kyriakides's native Cyprus that runs across the island and divides the two communities. The central figure in the work is a UN soldier who guards the buffer zone and has to deal with his own dislocation and relocation in a desolate no man's land where his main duty consists of reporting and turning away trespassers. Based on interviews and recordings from UN soldiers in Cyprus, the piece explores both the undercurrents of tension and inner and outer landscapes of the peculiar state of being 'in limbo', between two physical and mental states.The sound world of the Buffer Zone consists of nature field recordings in the buffer zone, electronic sounds of military technology, piano, cello and voices. The cellist Nikos Veliotis who uses his special curved bow technique, creates a rich sound world of drones that heighten the feeling of suspended time, as does the pianist Marc Reichow playing with a refined inside piano technique that utilises precise string harmonics. Tido Visser (from the Kassiopea Quintet) portrays the UN soldier whose inner world unravels under the alienating effect of the bizarre landscape that he is watching over.voice: Tido Visserpiano: Marc Reichowcello: Nikos Veliotiselectronics: Yannis Kyriakides24 -page digipak with essay and photograph series from the UN buffer zone in Cyprus

Elgar: Symphony No. 1; Organ Sonata
$10.39 World famous cellist Yo-Yo Ma teamed with the Silk Road Ensemble and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra to record NEW IMPOSSIBILITIES. Like most of Yo-Yo Ma must that isn't traditionally classical, NEW IMPOSSIBILITIES blends genres and cultures to create a chamber music that spans the globe. There's a distinct Middle Eastern, Asian and South Asian flavor to the compositions here, marked by the use of non-Western instruments, but the attention to arrangements and execution is recital-hall precise. This disc is another exceptional accomplishment from an exceptional, and adventurous, musician.
Personnel: Yo-Yo Ma (cello); Shane Shanahan (vocals, conch shell, dumbek, caxixi); Joseph Gramley (vocals, snare drum, tom tom, caxixi); Mark Suter (vocals, bongos, bodhran); Sandeep Das (vocals, tabla); Yang Wei, Wu Man (pipa); Colin Jacobsen, Jonathan Gandelsman (violin); Kayhan Kalhor (kamancha); Nicholas Cords (viola); Kojiro Umezaki (shakuhachi).
Recording information: Orchestra Hall, Symphony Center, Chicago, IL.
