Pi-Hsien Chen: Arnold Schonberg - Works for Piano

Read "Arnold Schonberg - Works for Piano" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

The very first striking aspect of Arnold Schönberg's Works for Piano, is that few of these piano pieces are longer than a few minutes; some of them, the fragments, are not even that long. However, their impact goes far beyond bringing absolute delight to the ear; these are works of a highly evolved artist, whose significance ...

Morton Feldman: Neither

Read "Neither" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

Neither is not an opera in any sense of the conventionally accepted form. There is no story, a dramatis personae of just one; no mise-en-scène... and no libretto; just 87 words by the poet and playwright, Samuel Beckett, set down on a page as if it were poetry. While there is a distinct drama in the ...

John Cage: Ryoanji

Read "Ryoanji" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

In the vivid imagination of John Cage, a perfect storm of ideas was always at work. And when the composer's mind opened up to the exactitude of spatial geometry and the asymmetrical balance of nature, magical things happened in the world of music. One of these was Ryoanji, a singularly beautiful work inspired by a visit ...

Ensemble Fur Neue Musik, Zurich: Women Composers I

Read "Women Composers I" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

Even in the liberal societies of the Western world, women have rarely been recognized for their contributions to the arts in the same manner as men. Music has been a particularly difficult field for them to break into, despite some having rather sublime talent. From Fanny Mendelssohn and Clara Schumann to Lili Boulanger and her sister, ...

Anthony Braxton: Trio and Quintet (Town Hall) 1972

Read "Trio and Quintet (Town Hall) 1972" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

If Anthony Braxton were to be judged on the basis of his oeuvre alone, he would stand completely apart from any modern composer, bar none. He has an enormous body of work, written for every conceivable permutation and combination of ensemble, from two to over a hundred and also for practically all the modern instruments known ...

Russ Lossing Trio: Oracle

Read "Oracle" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

There are rolling, wide open spaces in the music of Russ Lossing. Much of this is traversed in the seemingly sprawling beauty of Oracle, an album that meanders in the absorbing colors and textures of what that which the trio offers up for seduction. It is easy to be swept up in the diaphanous gusts of ...

Earle Brown: Synergy

Read "Synergy" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

Never quite as celebrated as his New York contemporaries Morton Feldman and John Cage, Earle Brown was, nevertheless, a composer of exceeding brilliance. His music bespoke of breathtaking vistas, informed by his undying love of the New England of his birth as much as it was by his exceptional grasp of the immense fluidity of compositional ...

Russ Lossing Trio: Oracle

Read "Oracle" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

Haunting, meditative, solemn and high-impact are descriptors that bear pianist Russ Lossing's approach and sensibilities. While Oracle denotes his trio's debut effort for hatOLOGY records, it's been a working unit for several years, largely based in New York City. The program is architected via disparate levels of pitch amid a capacious vibe, but the trio often ...

Russ Lossing Trio: Oracle

Read "Oracle" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Pianist Russ Lossing's trio evokes a dreamlike state on Oracle, by communicating an atmosphere of unearthly elegance through trance-inducing energy. Lossing, bassist Masa Kamaguchi and drummer Billy Mintz commune at this level because they'd been a working trio for six years when this studio recording was made in 2007. Besides that, all three bring ...
