  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalChristmas Week 3

    Dec 18th, 2020 | By Ralph Graves

    For the past four years, the #ClassicsaDay team has adopted  Classical Christmas as its theme for December. And why not? We have a rich body of music related to the season dating back to the Middle Ages. A good deal of it is religious, but not all — many works are simply inspired by the […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalDistancing Week 1

    Normally the Classics a Day theme for May involved May Day (#SovietaDay). Having a theme centered around social distancing/self-quarantine seemed more appropriate. The challenge for May is post works for unusual solo instruments or works about solitude. Here are my selections for the first day of May, and the first full week of #ClassicalDistancing 05/01/20 […]

  • Il Furibondo deliver with Max Reger String Trios

    Mar 31st, 2020 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: CD Review, Chamber music, Classical music, Il Firubondo, Max Reger, Romantic period

    Il Furibondo, violinist Liana Mosca, violist Gianni de Rosa, and cellist Marcello Scandelli, are quite impressive. The musicians regularly perform in early music groups with period instruments. In this recording, they show equal proficiency with modern instruments. In many ways, their dual skill sets make the trio uniquely suited to Reger’s music. Max Reger considered […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalChristmas Weeks 4 & 5

    Dec 28th, 2018 | By Ralph Graves

    This is the second year the #ClassicsaDay team went with a Classical Christmas theme. And that’s fine. If you think about it, composers have been writing works for the season as long as there’s been notation to preserve them. For my contributions, I tried to avoid the obvious choices. In the process, I discovered some […]

  • Max Reger: Music for Clarinet and Piano

    Oct 12th, 2016 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Alan R. Kay, Bridge Records, CD Review, Chamber music, Classical music, Jon Klibonoff, Max Reger

    In 1900, Max Reger heard Brahms’ Op. 120 clarinet sonatas for the first time. According to one of the performers, he said, ‘Fine, I am also going to write two such things.’ Three weeks later, Reger’s Op. 49 clarinet sonatas were completed. As one might expect, these sonatas are very similar to Brahms’, both in […]
