Do you like to listen to new composers?
Every time I read something music related, new names are popping up. Some I'd like to get more familiar with (the list will get larger I'm sure) Rostislav Boiko (1931-) symphonies, etc. Igor Boiko (1961-) fusion of jazz and classical - many try this - like David Baker and Morton Gould Revol Bunin (1924-1976) - another symphonist Revaz Gabichvadze (1913-1999) - from republic of Georgia Aleksei Rybnikov (1945-) "Juno and Avos" for synthesizers, piano, harpsichord, percussion, and orchestra Nicolas Slonimsky (1894-1995) - first 101 year old composer I've seen! Has written a lot for singers and small ensembles Sergei Slonimsky (1932-) nephew of Nicolas S. some operatic works: Virineia (1967), Mary Stuart (1981) Endre Szervansky (1911-1977) - this Hungarian has been recorded on the Qualiton label Anyone have any CD's or LP's with these guys? The works by Rybnikov and S. Slonimsky have been put on Melodiya. N. Slonimsky is on some Orion discs. |

It looks like a lot of this is being covered on the post "Listening Habits", which it appears was a poor title for what I had in mind - but everyone now has gotten.
So I will just add two more guys to the above list, for future use: Emanuel Moor (1863-1931) Surprising how many composers are born in the late Romantic period, and then ended in the 20th century. They can be considered either 19th or 20th. I thought Moor was French, where he was mentioned along with Koechlin. But the google article says he is Hungarian. Jean Barraque (1928-1973) Is 100% 20th century, and sounds more interesting than Moor, with his 'individual form of serialism, which is displayed in a small output of highly complex but passionate works', as the google article starts out. More info available there and looks like a good read. |
