Not Just Another Black Composer Compilation: Kellen Gray Revives Neglected American Masterpieces
LINN CKD 731
For the humble listener, a musician’s technical and interpretive performance skills are one of the most compelling reasons to buy a concert ticket or a recording of said musician. But your humble reviewer has another, perhaps equally important reason for investing time and money in the work of a musician. And that skill is what I like to call “musical radar”. It is the (sometimes…

Review of "Still: Summerland." Zina Schiff, violin; Avlana Eisenberg, Royal Scottish National Orchestra. Naxos 8.559867
William Grant Still (1895-1978) was a prolific American composer who came from a mixed background--African American, Native American, Anglo, and Hispanic--but who never rejected his birth certificate identification as “Negro.” In fact, because of his close association with many prominent African-American cultural figures, he is considered a part of the Harlem Renaissance and is often referred to as “the Dean of Afro-American Composers." Although he is probably best known for his Symphony No. 1, also called the Afro-American Symphony (1930), he wrote hundreds of other things as well, including nine operas and five symphonies. It’s good to hear a few of his works again on this newest album of his music, Summerland, with conductor Avlana Eisenberg and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra.

Baby Box
It’s been around for about 3 years now, but this is the first I’ve seen laid out like this.
Scotland’s Baby Box is a welcome gift for every baby born in Scotland. Not only is the box full of baby essentials from birth to 6 months, it’s also a safe and comfortable place for your wee one to sleep if you follow safe sleeping guidelines. You can use it to keep all your baby items in before they're born and as a memory box or a place to store toys once they're too big to sleep in it.
It's been designed so that you can pop your baby’s name and birth details on the lid – and if you have a toddler or older child, they can even colour it in – a lovely way to make them feel part of things when the new baby comes along.
The Box is full of items you can use to connect with your wee one in a positive, loving way. Here are some suggestions to get you going.

Rachel Barton, Uncovering Valuable Legacy
Cedille Records CDR 90000 214
This album, largely a re-release of Barton’s groundbreaking recording of 1987 without the Violin Concerto No. 4 in D Major by CHEVALIER J.J.O. DE MEUDE-MONPAS (FL. C. 1786) but with the wonderful addition of Florence Price’s Second Violin Concerto of 1952. That alone is worth the price of this disc.

raut concerto recs?
okay, so
Piano Concerto No. 1 (Op. 45)
okay so my favourite recording for this is by Laura Mikkola (pfte) and Hannu Lintu with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra
i just love this recording so much it makes me go feral istg
Violin Concerto
check out the recording by Elmar Oliveira (vln) and Leif Segerstam with the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra. its just amazing and Oliveira's cadenza fits so well with Rautavaara's style that i honestly had a hard time trying to hear when it began
Percussion Concerto - "Incantations"
the percussion concerto is great. Colin Currie (perc.) with John Storgårds and the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra is amazing and its just
aaaaa!
Concerto for Birds and Orchestra - "Cantus Arcticus"
yes, you heard that right. not even birds are safe from composers.
but in all seriousness, the recording by Max Pommer and the Leipzig Radio Symphony Orchestra is great and it just feels right. at least to me.
why i dont have more
ive just been trying to find good recordings. for the third piano concerto, Vladimir Askenazy's (pfte., cond.) recording is... alright? i mean its certainly not terrible, but it feels a bit too heavy at times.
ive been beginning to listen to the harp concerto as of late and its really quite wonderful.
the double bass concerto is something that ive listened to only in part.
also if you had to ask me what my favourite non-concerto work by Rautavaara is, it would probably have to be Over The Horizon. idk.
