COMPACT DISC
‘Dominating my Critics’ Choice for 1993 are Koch ‘s outstanding discs of concert works by esteemed film composers … Although the disc of Moross world premieres is especially exciting, both are distinguished not only by superb sound but also by wonderfully bold and intuitive performances that capture the distinctive style of each composer” (Gramophone) “his music’s apparent simplicity and accessibility- is often quite sophisticated … this should not surprise us once we recognize counterpoint is basically the science of composition with melody; and the wellsprings of melody flowed for few composers more abundantly than for Moross” (Christopher Palmer)
Nine centuries ago, Abbess Hildegard von Bingen was active as a writer, composer, philosopher, mystic, visionary, and as a medical writer and practitioner during the High Middle Ages. She is best remembered for her compositions – original sacred works from the age of Chant and one of the largest repertoires among medieval composers. With medieval instrumental ensemble Hesperus, Rosa Lamoreaux gives voice to the meditative and ecstatic facets of Hildegard’s music.
Rosa Lamoreaux (sop) with Hesperus (original instruments) (Tina Chancey -vielle, kamenj, lyra, viola da gamba, recorder; Scott Reiss – recorder, dulcimer)
[Gramophone Editor’s Choice 12/1998] ‘Lamoreaux’s sensitive recital throws new light upon the genius of the abbess. Her voice, pellucid and supple, is perfectly at ease with Hildegard’s demands. The instrumental additions, of other periods and styles, are drawn from the melodies, and musically rather clever.’(Gramophone)
