Allegro mosso 11. 20 This album is dedicated to Parker Ray, whose love and support helped me persevere and create in the face of the pandemic. I originally was scheduled to record this album in early April 2020 in my hometown in Northern Spain, but my plans were unexpectedly changed with Europe and then the United States shutting down and entering quarantine due to COVID-19. At the beginning of this unplanned hiatus, these songs, anchored in the theme of love, seemed to me to be a bit out-of-step with what the world was experiencing with the global pandemic. I began to question whether this music was appropriate at this time. Originally titled “Romeo & Juliet,” I realized as I pondered this recording that the music actually was in tune with this turbulent time. Love, decency, hope and optimism prevailing against mortality, mistrust, injustice and uncertainty — these are the overall underlying themes of this album,— and it is what the world, and our country, has demonstrated throughout the past months of this pandemic. The chosen works on this album are fairly well-known. While still an album about love (and the art that can come with love), the meaning of the album has evolved and expanded to become a recording about the importance of the perseverance of hope, determination, and love in the face of death and uncertainty. Global events like the pandemic of 2020 forever alter our lives. Whether we will emerge from this better or worse is still to be seen, but we can each make a positive impact in our own way. And so, I have moved forward with making the album, creating the sound world that I originally planned. I hope you enjoy it, and that it brings something positive into your life. Jesus Rodolfo 4 5 Sergei Prokofiev: Selections from ballet transcribed the entire work for viola and Romeo & Juliet (Arr. Vadim Borisovsky) piano between 1961-1977. Considering the complexity and orchestral lushness - Introduction (1961) of Prokofiev’s original score, Borisovsky - Young Juliet (1967) created a remarkable transcription for viola - Dance of the Knights (1961) and piano.

Perhaps, the most famous love story of all The Introduction, or first movement serves times, where the purest innocent love faces as a prelude to the entire selection of the darkest death. dances. The love theme is presented and the naiveness of youth resembles joy. Romeo & Juliet, a play originally written by William Shakespeare in 1597, a tragic idyll Young Juliet introduces one of the main that was taken by the Russian composer characters, Juliet, jumping in her room with Sergei Prokofiev and turned into a ballet. her grandma.

  • Toccata Classics TOCC 0127 Notes
    SERGEI VASILENKO AND THE VIOLA by Elena Artamonova The viola is occasionally referred to as ‘the Cinderella of instruments’ – and, indeed, it used to take a fairy godmother of a player to allow this particular Cinderella to go to the ball; the example usually cited in the liberation of the viola in a solo role is the British violist Lionel Tertis. Another musician to pay the instrument a similar honour – as a composer rather than a player – was the Russian Sergei Vasilenko (1872–1956), all of whose known compositions for viola, published and unpublished, are to be heard on this CD, the fruit of my investigations in libraries and archives in Moscow and London. None is well known; some are not even included in any of the published catalogues of Vasilenko’s music. Only the Sonata was recorded previously, first in the 1960s by Georgy Bezrukov, viola, and Anatoly Spivak, piano,1 and again in 2007 by Igor Fedotov, viola, and Leonid Vechkhayzer, piano;2 the other compositions receive their first recordings here. Sergei Nikiforovich Vasilenko had a long and distinguished career as composer, conductor and pedagogue in the first half of the twentieth century. He was born in Moscow on 30 March 1872 into an aristocratic family, whose inner circle of friends consisted of the leading writers and artists of the time, but his interest in music was rather capricious in his early childhood: he started to play piano from the age of six only to give it up a year later, although he eventually resumed his lessons. In his mid-teens, after two years of tuition on the clarinet, he likewise gave it up in favour of the oboe.

This repertoire approach to the enhancement and enrichment of the was undoubtedly influential for Borisovsky in his own viola’s instrumental and timbral possibilities in his selection of transcription choices for the viola. performing editions, in which he closely followed the historical and stylistic background of the composers’ Performing Collaborations manuscripts.

Like so much of the chamber music of his last years, this quartet is imbued with an inwardness, a sense of personal expression that is not always present in the sometimes bombastic public statements that were his symphonies.
