David Starobin

  • Poul Ruders – Occam’s Razor

    Nov 21st, 2018 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Amaila Hall, Bridge Records, Chamber music, contemporary classical music, Daniel Druckman, David Starobin, Hao Yang, Liang Wang, Movses Pegossian, Poul Ruders, Xiaobo Pu, YunXianGan

    The cover of this release shows two old friends sharing a moment — composer Poul Ruders and guitarist David Starobin. Their 30+ year relationship has been extraordinarily fruitful. This release presents a few of Ruders’ works commissioned by Starobin. Occam’s Razor is a philosophical principle: the simplest explanation is usually the best. Just as Occam’s Razor […]

  • David Starobin hits milestone with New Music for Guitar

    Sep 14th, 2016 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Bridge Records, CD Review, Chamber music, contemporary classical music, David Starobin, Gregg Smith, Michael Starobin, Paul Chihara, Poul Ruders, William Bland

    As David Starobin points out in the liner notes for this release, this series started over 35 years ago. The first three volumes were on LP, but as times changed, so did the media. This volume is available as a CD,  digital download, and is found on many streaming services. But while the delivery has […]

  • New Music With Guitar, Vol. 9

    Jun 8th, 2015 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Alabama Symphony Orchestra, Bridge Records, CD Review, contemporary classical music, David Starobin, Justin Brown, Paul Lansky, Poul Ruders, Richard Wernick

    The ninth installment of Bridge Records’ New Music With Guitar series presents an interesting program of new guitar music — music that (I think) deserves a place in the repertoire. Guitarist David Starobin has a personal connection with each composer and work, which gives these performances an added depth. Starobin premiered Richard Wernick’s “The Name […]

  • Poul Ruders 9

    Poul Ruders, Vol. 9 – Amiable Chamber Music

    Jun 18th, 2014 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Amalia Hall, Bridge Records, CD Review, Chamber music, Contemporary classical, Daniel Druckman, David Holzman, David Starobin, Hsin-Yun Hunag, Poul Ruders, Sara Rothernberg

    The two words that sprang to mind as I listened to this collection of Poul Ruder’s chamber music was “amiable atonality.” These chambers works move well beyond tonality, without a hint of academic dryness. Every work had real personality, often full of warmth and gentle humor. Guitarist David Starobin and Poul Ruders have enjoyed a […]

  • Starobin Crumb Ruders Lansky New Music with Guitar 8

    David Starobin – New Music with Guitar 8

    Jan 21st, 2014 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: CD Review, classical guitar, Contemporary classical, David Starobin, George Crumb, Paul Lansky, Poul Ruders

    David Starobin’s New Music with Guitar series has done much to expand the repertoire for the instrument. Volume 8 continues the same high standards set for composition and performance set by the previous volumes. Only this time it’s personal. It’s sort of a Bridge family release. David Starobin, in addition to being the featured artist […]
