Technical brilliance and musical sensitivity have become a trademark for the violin-viola ensemble Duo Renard. Critics on both sides of the Atlantic have praised their "sumptuous sound" and "mature artistry." The Frankfurter Rundschau described their performance as "an evening of ever-increasing musical excitement." The Cologne Stadt-Anzeiger acclaimed them for being "perfectly attuned to one another." Their newest recording, The Deeper Magic: Music from 20th Century America for Violin and Viola (Musicians Showcase), garnered high praise from Fanfare magazine, which declared "These are marvelous string players . . ." The Köln-Bonner Musikkalendar called their first CD -- of works by Fuchs, Kühnl and Martinu -- "a treasure trove for lovers of intimate string sound." Recipients of a prestigious National Endowment for the Arts 'Rural Residencies' chamber music grant, Duo Renard was named 'Artists in Residence' in the Department of Music at Texas A&M University - Commerce. In addition to presenting recitals throughout Texas, Duo Renard continues to perform in Germany.

Few jazz pianists could ever hope to rival the technical mastery of Art Tatum. From the 1930s on through the `50s, Tatum's dazzling facility made it seem as if two pianists were playing at once. Though he often performed solo, his virtuosity allowed him to make the transition from swing to bebop effortlessly. Tatum's eclectic style also reflected influences from blues and classical music, and from early jazz and ...

A magnificently beautiful recording of an orchestra in an old abbey, Alleluia and Fugue for String Orchestra is one of Hovhaness' best-known works, a two-part composition from 1942. The Alleluia varies between parallel chords in rhythm, somewhat like a Russian Orthodox chant, with an Eastern European-influenced melismatic melody in imitative canon style. The effect is plaintive, praising with a restrained passion. The Fugue melody, first stated by the cellos, is likewise a melismatic, flowing creation. The voices develop in a classic fugue form, but there are few key modulations. At times, two or three voices are heard in high, angelic registers, and during the middle and end sections the entire string orchestra fills the air with a heartfelt richness of sound. This is classic 20th century music. And God Created Great Whales (1970) is for orchestra and the taped songs of whales, including humpback, bowhead, and killer whales. The piece begins with rushing sounds in the strings and a simple melody that emerges in the brass and high bells. The music becomes quieter, and a lovely and light pentatonic melody like a sea shanty occurs in the high winds and strings, with lovely harmonies beneath. Low tremulous strings appear and recede quietly while the sounds of whales are heard. The initial melody is ...
