Lee Hyla
Wilson's Ivory-Bill CD (2006)
Lydian String Quartet albums
$13.09
Avant-garde composer Lee Hyla's composition for voice, piano, and ivory-billed woodpecker tells the true story of Alexander Wilson's early-19th-century encounter with the rare species, while he was traveling in the South painting and chronicling wild birds in their natural habitat. The duet between the piano and the (prerecorded) woodpecker is particularly fascinating, and the recounting of the creature's ultimate demise is unexpectedly poignant.

Harbison: The Rewaking, Etc / Labelle, Lydian String Quartet CDs (2001)
Lydian String Quartet CD discography
$11.39
It was commissioned by the Pittsburgh Music Society for the soprano Benita Valente and the Juilliard String Quartet and premiered by them in 1991. John Harbison is one of America's most prominent and popular contemporary composers. He claims it to be, instead,' a quintet in which the theme of "rewaking" from a winter of the spirit is carried forward equally by all five performers'. Well, the composer knows best, as they say, but any work which features a soprano soloist and string quartet is bound to invite certain comparisons with the Schoenberg. The composer is at pains to point out that the work is neither 'a quartet with vocal apotheosis, like Schoenberg's Second, nor a song cycle with string accompaniment'. The Rewaking is a setting of four late poems by William Carlos Williams. Among his principal works are three string quartets, three symphonies, the cantata The Flight Into Egypt, which earned him a Pulitzer Prize in 1987, and three operas including The Great Gatsby, commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera and premiered to great acclaim in December 1999.
