Description:
A collection of works for violin by modern British composers. The works of Finzi, Gurney, and Bliss are known for their use of rural atmospheres, and the music of Ian Venables, who is related to the same lineage, also has a unique style that draws on tradition while incorporating elements of modernism. The album opens with Venables' 1989 technical sonata, followed by seven world premiere recordings of works for violin and piano composed by Gurney in 1908-1909, before he studied with Stanford. Included here are lyrical pieces that show Elgar's influence, as well as light fumoresques (humoresques). Brice's single-movement Violin Sonata, based on his own experience of being wounded in the "Battle of the Somme" in 1916, also has a rural warmth that is emblematic of his musical style. Finzi's "Elegy," while seemingly serene, contains personal grief over the loss of a brother and a mentor in World War I. It is distinguished by its Bach-influenced counterpoint and precise rhythms.The concert concludes with "Three Pieces" from 1986, which depicts scenes from the Severn Valley that Venables was exposed to when he moved to Worcester. Yang Chu-Yu is a violinist from Taiwan. He studied at the Royal Birmingham Conservatory of Music and has been active mainly in the UK. He is committed to the promotion of British music. Naxos Japan
