BELLS FOR STOKOWSKI - JERRY JUNKIN

DAUGHERTY/BELLS FOR STOKOWSKI/JUNKIN-U OF TEXAS WIND ENSEMBLE *HDCD*

'The contemporary works, by Michael Daugherty and David Del Tredici ('In Wartime'), are intriguing, but the real gem is a gleefully anachronistic arrangement of Tylman Susato's collection 'Danserye,' from 1551. The performance exudes the freshness of youth and a sheer joy in music-making.  A glorious noise.'  - James R. Oestreich, The New York Times

'Keith Johnson's sonics are, as usual, as appealing as most high-rez sources--full and richly detailed, with a killer bottom end and extremely natural decay.' --Andrew Quint, The Absolute Sound

Nine delightful Renaissance dances by Tielman Susato start this program with a bang. The ever-popular English Folksong Suite by Ralph Vaughan Williams in its original scoring continues the crowd-pleasing mood. Two important new works follow. A sonic spectacular, captured to perfection by “Prof.” Johnson in his most dazzling HDCD sound.

1. SUSATO: 1-La Morisque; 2-Bergerette; 3 -Les quartre Branles; 4-Fagot; 5 -Den hoboecken dans; 6-Ronde & Salterelle; 7-Ronde & Aliud; 8-Basse danse: Mon desir; 9-Pavane: La Battaille.
2. VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: English Folk Song Suite 10-March: Seventeen Come Sunday; 11-Intermezzo: My Bonny Boy; 12-March: Folk Songs from Somerset.
3. DEL TREDICI: In Wartime 13-Hymn; 14-Battlemarch.
