TZ8010
Four masterpieces by one of the worlds greatest composers of classical concert music, including three pieces that have never been released before. The fourth quartet is perhaps Wuorinens most complex and exciting composition, and it receives a passionate performance by the prestigious Brentano Quartet. Also included is the intense and colorful chamber piece On Alligators, conducted by the composer, and a moody piece for organ performed by one of the worlds greatest organists on one of the worlds greatest organs. Completing this eclectic program of Wuorinen as youve never heard him before, is the phenomenal Third Piano Concerto, newly remastered and reworked by the composer himself. Intense and beautiful music by a modern master. [Tzadik]
