Godfrey/Schwartz/Frank:
Music for Strings and Mallet Percussion |
 Music
for Strings and Mallet Percussion features three
highly distinct-but-related works — solo percussion,
string quartet and a violin/marimba duet — from composers
Daniel Godfrey, Elliott Schwartz and Andrew Frank.
Among the many highlights:
- The long-awaited return of Marimolin,
performing Andrew Frank’s Elective Affinities
III. Marimolin’s GM Recordings debut
recording was voted ‘Classical CD of the Month’
in CD Review, receiving a perfect rating.
- The percussion wizardry of Steven
Schick, performing simultaneously both parts of
Daniel Godfrey’s Music for Marimba and Vibraphone.
- The first recording of Elliot Schwartz’s
oft-performed Bellagio Variations, exquisitely
delivered by the Jennings Quartet, in elegant homage
to Schwartz’s composition teacher in the 1950s,
Otto Luening.
