Description:

Conjurer by J. Corigliano, released 18 October 2013. This version of Conjurer comes as a 1xCD. - EVELYN GLENNIE/HILA PLITMANN

Leading American composer John Corigliano had reservations about writing a percussion concerto, but the challenge fascinated him. The result is Conjurer, a concerto for percussion like no other, in which 'wood, metal and skin' are utilized in such a way that the soloist, Dame Evelyn Glennie - the world's greatest percussion virtuoso - 'conjures' the musical material from these three choirs, and the orchestra then shares and develops the themes. Vocalise employs electronics in a way that serves to heighten the expressive beauty of the writing, gradually leading the listener from a purely acoustic experience to one that becomes suffused by amplification and electronics.

Recorded at Troy Savings Bank Music Hall, Troy, New York, on 13th March, 2011 (tracks 1-6) and at EMPAC (Exerimental Media Performing Arts Center), RPI (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute), Troy, New York, on 22nd May, 2011 (track 7) World premiere recordings Total playing time 57:43
