Editor Rick Anderson writes: "You thought July was hot enough already? Well, you haven’t experienced hot until you’ve checked out the offerings in this month’s issue of Music Media Monthly. Break out the sunblock, because Anne Shelley is filling you in on a brilliant Aaron Copland documentary and an equally glorious video examination of the art of the thematic variation (as performed by Danie Barenboim, Andras Schiff and Yefim Bronfman). Steve Dankner discusses a blistering new book on Liszt’s transcriptions and a collection of studies on Ravel.
Gene Hyde brings us word of a steaming-hot website for drummers and lovers of drumming in all musical genres. And I discuss several blazingly
great new releases from such tropical climes as Jamaica (Roy Ellis), North Carolina (Don Dixon and Marti Jones), er, New York (Paul Motian),
and, um, Germany (Echo Beach). Put on your hippest sunglasses, break out your most styling parasol, and enjoy! Read it here.
When it comes to April weather, there can be such a thing as too much variety. But music is a different story, and the coverage in this month's issue of Music Media Monthly doesn't disappoint. April features a new book on the Gershwins and a new edition of Paul Griffiths' Modern Music and After; guitarists' personal websites; DVDs include performances and footage from a Celibidache documentary; and in CDs, pop, Boccherini, eighteenth century "gallery hymns", and Yiddish ska (just in time for Passover!).
It's starting to look like spring here at Alexander Street, and Music Media Monthly keeps things fresh with its latest issue. The focus this month is on twentieth-century masters: biographies of modernist representatives Arnold Schoenberg and Elliott Carter; DVDs centered on a contemporary performer, composter, and conductor; roots reggae, folk, and jazz CDs; and a tour of NPR Music's website. Let the March winds carry you over there and enjoy!
Whether your interest lies in reggae, choral Schoenberg, or the ukelele, this month's issue of Music Media Monthly has something for you (and if you like all three, we can pretty much guarantee it does). Featured are sound recordings of British folk, roots reggae from France, and the Westminster Cathedral Choir performing Palestrina. For performance fans, the videos are choral and opera works, and the books include a history of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra and a look at Gershwin's theatrical composition career. And get a little taste of summer with the Web resources, all related to the ukelele. As usual, Music Media Monthly has something for every taste. Check out this month's issue here!
