Description: Kaminsky / Oppens / Meyer - Fantasy [New CD] Artist: Kaminsky / Oppens / Meyer Title: Fantasy Condition: Format: CD Release Date: 2021 Label: Cedille UPC: 735131920223 Genre: Classical Artists Pianist Ursula Oppens, stalwart champion of 20th- and 21st-century American music and recipient of multiple Grammy nominations and other honors, celebrates her decades-long friendship and professional association with composer Laura Kaminsky on an album of world-premiere recordings. The program includes two recent works written for the pianist: Kaminsky's Piano Quintet, performed with the Cassatt String Quartet, "a concise work of considerable substance and atmosphere" (New York Classical Review) and the turbulent Reckoning: Five Miniatures for America for piano four-hands, with pianist Jerome Lowenthal, created expressly for this recording. A large-scale Fantasy for solo piano explores sonorities from French Impressionism to jazz. Oppens gave the New York premiere in 2017. Kaminsky's Piano Concerto was inspired by visual images of sunlit rivers in New York City and St. Petersburg, Russia, where Oppens gave the world premiere with the St. Petersburg Chamber Philharmonic led by it's artistic director Jeffery Meyer. On this world-premiere recording, Meyer, who is also director of orchestras at Arizona State University, conducts the ASU Symphony Orchestra.© DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
