Fanfare (1-2/00, pp.207-208) - "...Bennett conjures up a dynamic Classicism worthy of his tumultuous epoch...these readings by the Moscow Symphony, under the committed baton of Americana specialist William T. Stromberg, come out sounding reasonably well rehearsed and adequately idiomatic..."

| | Harrison: Suite For Violin, Etc / Bachman, Sedares, Et Al CD (1999)
Glass: Etudes For Piano Vol 1 No 1-10 / Philip Glass
$9.95 
Lou Harrison is a towering though somewhat underrated figure in American music. A folk-inspired composer at heart, but not in the jazz- or Americana-inspired way of Bernstein and Copland, Harrison tends to employ techniques and instruments associated with Indonesia and the Far East. For those new to Harrison, this beautifully played and recorded CD is an ideal introduction.
The Suite for Violin and Orchestra is an achingly beautiful work showing Harrison's love of long-reaching melodies. Meditative and serene (apart from the infectious dance rhythms of the second movement), this work deserves to be a concert mainstay. The Suite for Cello and Piano was originally written for two friends of Harrison's who were not professional musicians. Although this piece is deliberately free of extreme technical difficulties, it brims with Harrison's gift for melody.
The Suite for Cello and Harp is a representative work in that the sparse textures of the harp afford Harrison the ability to evoke his love of Japanese and Javanese music. The Three Waltzes have a beguiling simplicity that recall the piano music of Virgil Thomson while 'Western Dance' is an uncharacteristic work of wide dynamic range and rhythmic complexity.

Glass: Etudes For Piano Vol 1 No 1-10 / Philip Glass
$12.35  
Favorably compared to the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, and Broken Social Scene, the Arcade Fire's sound seems to come from a lifetime of listening to the Cure, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, and many others--even a dose of soul gets worked into these grand anthems. Chassagne delivers some spellbinding vocals on "Haiti," while the tinkling piano and strings on "Crown of Love" conjure up a heartbroken surfside prom. In 2004, this made many critics' year-end lists, and it's no wonder--the songs on FUNERAL are so packed with unique instrumentation, mesmerizing build-ups, and galvanizing tempo changes that they seem culled from some enigmatic, decade-spanning rock anthology.
This Montreal ensemble's fiery debut is marked by surging guitars, soulful strings, driving drums, brilliant bass lines, and the quavering vocals of married couple Win Butler and Regine Chassagne. The group's song structures careen through a vast territory of musical and personal history, with lyrics warm with memories of childhood neighborhoods and deceased loved ones, resulting in an alternating current of joy and sadness.
The Arcade Fire: Win Butler (vocals, acoustic guitar, electric 12-string guitar, piano, synthesizer, bass guitar); Regine Chassagne (vocals, accordion, recorder, piano, synthesizer, xylophone, drums, percussion); Howard Bilerman (guitar, drums); Richard Reed Parry (accordion, piano, organ, synthesizer, xylophone, double bass, percussion); William Butler (synthesizer, xylophone, bass instrument, percussion).
