Collection: Renaissance Subcollection: Flute At the end of the seventeenth century, Delightful, Genteel and Most Pleasant were used to describe the company
of the Pipe Recorder or Commen Flute in many English manuals with solo music for lovers of the recorder. What can increase musical pleasure more than playing the beloved recorder? Playing the recorder with someone very dear to you. So The Delightful Companion has a double meaning for me …
For this CD, we chose duets that were originally composed for two recorders and music that mentions the recorder as one of the possible instruments. The CD opens with a piece for only two recorders, An Italian Ground from The Delightful Companion (Londen, 1686). Its recurring bass theme was usually richly elaborated, so that, paradoxically, the abbreviation arr. (arrangement) features in the CD’s table of contents. |

Collection: Brass Collection Subcollection: Quartet In the third CD of Mardi Brass’ epic four-CD journey from the Renaissance to the present day (Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue), the group presents a cornucopia of exciting original compositions, and imaginative arrangements by members of the group, each of which is a premiere recording.
Covering a wide range of musical styles, the unifying feature is that the composers
have borrowed thematic material - and inspiration - from one source and reinterpreted it using their own unique voices. Transcending mere arrangement or pastiche, the composers demonstrate the art of musical disguise and metamorphosis, seamlessly moulding and fusing material from one genre to another. |
