Nashville Symphony/ Giancarlo Guerrero/ Tobias Picker

Beschreibung:

Tobias Picker, hailed as "a genuine creator" by The New Yorker, has written extensively for the stage and for symphonic forces, and these two approaches are represented in this album. The Encantadas (an older name for the Galapagos Islands) derives from a novella by Herman Melville. Picker has set it as a melodrama, exploring the enchanted isles in all their quietly menacing and spectacular beauty. In a radical new form, Picker's Opera Without Words is set to a libretto by Irene Dische that has now been removed, allowing the music alone to bear the expressive richness and intensity of this "secret opera." Tobias Picker has been commissioned to write numerous works in other genres, including operas, three symphonies, concertos for violin, viola, cello and oboe, four piano concertos and chamber music. His many honors include the 2020 GRAMMY Award for Best Opera Recording (Fantastic Mr. Fox). Picker is a lifetime member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and is artistic director of the Tulsa Opera, a post he has held since 2016., Runningtime: 00:00:00, Composed By: Tobias Picker, Conductor: Giancarlo Guerrero, Cover: Henriette Simon Picker, Engineer: Gary Call (3), Engineer: Trevor Wilkinson, Liner Notes: Thomas May, Orchestra: Nashville Symphony Orchestra, Producer: Tim Handley, Narrator: Tobias Picker, Text By: Herman Melville, Labelcode NAAC8559853.2 (8.559853), Phonographic Copyright (p) Naxos Rights Europe Ltd, Copyright (c) Naxos Rights Europe Ltd, Published By Schott Helicon Music Corporation, Recorded At Laura Turner Concert Hall, Glass Mastered At Sonopress
