Renoir: Romantic Dance Classics from the Age of Impressionism The journey of vocalist Terri Brinegar began with a Classical foundation. She played violin from the age of 9, then later upright bass. While still in high school, she was performing with a local University Orchestra. And all along she was singing. Upon receiving a full scholarship to the school of her choice, she decided on North Texas State University, famous for its wonderful music department. Not knowing what style of music she wanted to sing, (and not really knowing she had a choice), she started with her Classical training and development. She loved singing, and loved the expressiveness of Classical music. In 1984, Terri graduated after completing her final exam: her Senior Recital. She later attended the Juilliard School of Music in New York. This CD is a rich mixture of classic and contemporary composers, all with only voice and piano (except one with clarinet accompaniment). Terri has since moved on to other styles of music, but is still singing and composing music herself. Recording information: NTSU Concert Hall (04/13/1984).

Renoir: Romantic Dance Classics from the Age of Impressionism Cycle des Souvenirs was originally an installation for six CD players and four video projectors (the idea of multiple eternally looping tapes dates back to the original installation version of Luc Ferrari's "Music Promenade" in the mid-1960s, and was also incorporated instrumentally in 1970s "Tautologos 3"). Each of the six CDs (for the mixdown into this single-CD version, Ferrari simply started them off at one-minute intervals) contains ten spans of sound -- two two-minute spoken texts, four five-minute "ambiences" recordings of "sounds of everyday life," and four four-minute composed "tonalities" or "harmonic threads," chosen by selecting notes at random. The "ambiences" include exquisite field recordings of the Parisian streets where Ferrari grew up, as well as seaside and insect soundscapes recalling the "Presque Rien" series, a snippet of Thelonious Monk's "Misterioso," and even, apparently, the sound of the composer's wife putting on makeup. They're beautifully recorded and far more interesting than the tonal threads, whose beats and spacey synths do little to spice up the post-impressionist soup. The composer's texts, which are, depending on your point of view, either mildly soporific or gently erotic, are read in three languages with characteristic hushed intimacy. ~ Dan Warburton Liner Note Author: Luc Ferrari .
