專輯詳細介紹歌曲清單 (0)

Having explored much of twentieth-century British
works for cello and piano, the Watkins brothers now
turn their attention to the American contribution to
this repertoire.

The music spans a fascinating period of some four
decades of intensive compositional activity in the
United-States. The earliest piece in the collection,
Barber’s Cello Sonata (1932), was for many years
considered as the only modern work in the genre. It is
imbued with an intensely romantic spirit utterly
different from the folk-tinged nationalism of
contemporaneous music by Copland, represented here
by arrangements of two numbers from his popular
cowboy ballet Billy the Kid.

Carter’s highly original and technically demanding
Cello Sonata and Crumb’s idiosyncratic Sonata for Solo
Cello are worlds apart from the traditional vein of
Barber piece. The works marked watershed moments
in the stylistic development of two of the most
imaginative and distinctive creative voices of their
time.

Lastly, the ‘Meditations’ offer a contrast between
searing melancholy and moments of jazzy dynamism,
typical of Bernstein’s stylistic eclecticism.
