General Interest Turnage: Orchestral Works Volume 3 (Christian Tetzlaff/ Lawrence Power/ London P British composer Mark-Anthony Turnage is widely admired for his distinctive blending of jazz and contemporary classical traditions, high energy and elegiac lyricism. His music is colourful, rhythmic and always distinctive, with an innate dramatic sense. Powerful in its contrasts, his music and texts hold up a mirror to the realities of modern life and make a broad appeal to an enquiring contemporary audience. Turnage was the London Philharmonic Orchestras Composer in Residence from 200510, during which time the Orchestra released two highly acclaimed CDs of his orchestral music. This is the third and final volume of Turnages music to be released on the LPO Label. It features five works recorded for the first time, including the world premire peformance of his violin concerto Mambo, Blues and Tarantella with soloist Christian Tetzlaff. The CD also features performances by soloists Lawrence Power (viola) and Michael Collins (clarinet). Review With Collins in top form, as adept at sudden entries as wonderfully sustained passages, the different sections of this fine orchestra savoured the chance to showcase their skills, the strings as silky as the woodwind were ethereal and the brass, well, brassy. -- Anthony Holden, The Observer, 17 February 2008 on the premire performance of Riffs and Refrains This is the third disc the London Philharmonic's own label has devoted to Mark-Anthony Turnage, who was the orchestra's composer-in-residence from 2005 to 2010. All but one of these five performances from the Royal Festival Hall was a premiere of one kind or another, though only the violin concerto, Mambo, Blues and Tarantella, written for the fabulous Christian Tetzlaff, was a direct product of Turnage's tenure. The whole disc provides an impressive demonstration of Turnage's fluency and orchestral imagination, especially in the works with soloists here. On Opened Ground is a dark-hued, often anguished viola concerto, played with real intensity by Laurence Power, while Riffs and Refrains expertly puts solo clarinettist Michael Collins through his extrovert paces. There are also two short orchestral works: Texan Tenebrae is the interlude that provides the emotional pivot in Turnage's 2011 opera Anna Nicole, while Lullaby for Hans was an 80th-birthday tribute to his one-time mentor, Henze. **** --Guardian,, 01/11/12 All in all, as fine a selection of Turnage's recent music as could be wished. --Gramophone,Feb'13 Shipping Shipping is free for all customers in Australia.
