He has received wide acclaim for his album of orchestral works, Home Stretch, and his debut album, Shy and Mighty. Current projects include orchestral arrangements for Sufian Stevens and the New York City Ballet and Justin Peck's Principia. A new Calder Quartet work through the Los Angeles Philharmonic. And an oratorio for the Cottbus State Theatre Orchestra.In 2019\/20, Andres plans (and performs in) the concert \"American Perspective\" with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Andre de Ridder, Dance, and cellist Inbal Segev.He has also given solo recitals at Carnegie Hall's Zankel Hall.\n\n\n\nThe Blind Bannister was written for pianist Jonathan Biss. Jonathan asked me to compose a new concerto to be programmed alongside Beethoven's Second, a work built on this fault line of Beethoven's as the basis for a miniature fantasy and an attempt to peer into the gaps.\n\nThe Colorful History is a chaconne that begins with a chord consisting of a single enhanced triad of notes and follows the course of the various directions it suggests. The work is a kind of extended metaphor for historical events and how they echo each other without literally repeating themselves.\n\nUpstate Obscura is a kind of thought experiment set in the primitive atmosphere of the 19th century, when American artists were primarily trying to emulate European models. John Vanderlyn (1775-1852) was one such artist, an ambitious painter from Kingston, NY, who studied for years in Paris.His work was both too realistic and too abstract at the same time, since Americans had little interest in paying to see a replica of an ornate French palace. All the melodic material of the piece is generated in this way. Each movement is taken from a stretched fragment, directed in a different direction, and transitions between registers are used as a way to translate the forced perspective of the panorama into the sonic illusion of physical space. The solo cello moves through these registers, sometimes wandering, sometimes with purpose, as if the listener is exploring a virtual world.\n\n(Warner Music)\n\n\n\n[Included in the album](Scheduled to be included in the album)\n\nTimo Andres:.\n\n1) Blind Bannister\n\n2) Colorful History\n\n3) Upstate Obscura\n\n\n\nPerformers\n\nTimo Andres (Piano:1)\n\nInbal Segev(Cello:3)\n\nMetropolis Ensemble\n\nAndrew Seal(Conductor)\n\n\n\nRecording\n\nJune 1-2, 2023, Adelphi University Performing Arts Center, New York, NY\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nonesuch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48341149057313,"sku":"75597899894","price":15.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/75597899894.jpg?v=1710673587","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/es-es\/products\/75597899894","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
