In Japan, he was selected as a juror for the 2020 Toru Takemitsu Composition Award, and with many of his works being performed and recorded by renowned artists, he has been particularly active as a composer in recent years.\nThe “Beethoven \u0026amp; Barry” project has featured all nine of Beethoven’s symphonies combined with works by Irish composer Gerald Barry (b. 1952)—who has stated he was greatly influenced by Beethoven—in a series of recordings. A 6-CD box set is now available, containing all three volumes (previously released in pairs) along with a Japanese liner note written exclusively for this release by Noriyuki Komuro!\nGerald Barry’s “Beethoven” is a mini-opera that sets to music the text of Beethoven’s enigmatic “Immortal Beloved” letters. “The Eternal Recurrence” is a work for soprano and orchestra composed using excerpts from Nietzsche’s *Thus Spoke Zarathustra* as its text, intended to pair with Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. Also worth noting are other intriguing works by Barry, such as concertos featuring soloists Nicholas Hodges and Lawrence Power. Combined with Thomas Adès’s stimulating and unique interpretations of Beethoven, this complete symphony collection is a must-have for all Beethoven fans.\nTokyo M Plus\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Signum Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53595649114401,"sku":"4947182117255","price":11490.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4947182117255.jpg?v=1790482117","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4947182117255","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
