Info for Airs for the Seasons

"Airs for the Seasons" ist die Interpretation des Rezonance Baroque Ensembles von James Oswalds bemerkenswerten zwei Sätzen von 48 Airs for the Seasons, insgesamt 96 Stück. Jedes Air besteht aus zwei bis vier separaten Sätzen in verschiedenen Taktarten und Tempi. Airs for the Seasons zeigt das Rezonance Baroque Ensemble auf seinem dynamischen Höhepunkt, indem es zwischen der zarten Frühlingsblüte, dem eisigen Winterfrost und den dazwischen liegenden Jahreszeiten hin und her schwingt. Die Sonaten von Airs for the Seasons spiegeln einen Komponisten wider, der sowohl die Makro- als auch die Mikroebene perfekt beherrscht. Oswald beweist eine einzigartige Vorliebe für die Kombination von galanter Kammermusik und schottischer Luft, zusammen mit einem großzügigen Angebot für diejenigen, die ihre Metaphern lieber saisonal serviert bekommen. In Kombination mit der Beherrschung von Klang und Stimmung durch das Rezonance Baroque Ensemble ist Airs for the Seasons ein kraftvolles, resonanzreiches Album, das die Jahreszeiten unseres Lebens auf den Punkt bringt.
