Description:
A new feat for the genius of the ancient music world, Paul MacLeish and the Gabrieli Consort to build "Gerontius' Dream," the first recording by an orchestra with instruments from Elgar's time. The Gabrieli Consort & Players, one of the UK's leading ancient music ensembles and choirs, was founded in 1982 by master musician Paul MacLeish. Following Purcell's "King Arthur" (OSIGCD589), which won the prestigious BBC Music Magazine Award 2020 for "Record of the Year," and the Gramophone Award-nominated "The Fairy Queen" (SIGCD615), this is their first new album in nearly four years. Elgar's masterpiece oratorio, "Gerontius' Dream (Gerondias' Dream)" is now available! MacLeish & Gabrieli have been highly acclaimed for their efforts to recreate the instruments, orchestration, and performance habits of the time through meticulous research and consideration in their previous recordings. This time, they have realized a groundbreaking project to recreate the orchestra of the first performance in Birmingham in 1900. Look out for "Gabrieli Rohr" composed of three top British soloists and young singers, a 150+ member choir from the Polish National Youth Choir, and "Gerontius' Dream" recorded for the first time with an orchestra of instruments from Elgar's time! The booklet (about 40 pages) includes lyrics, biography, and contributions from such outstanding artists as Stephen Hough and Mahan Esfahani, as well as a description of each instrument by Paul McLeish (strings are gut-strung except for the lowest string, and there is a mix of "transitional" and "modern" instruments). The strings are strung with gut strings except for the lowest string, and there is a mix of "transitional" and "modern" instruments. Nicholas Daniel plays a special oboe that belonged to Leon Goossens. Dennis Blaine uses the same instrument that his father actually used in Gerontius' early performances. and other interesting information).
