Now available on CD! Commissioned by the Oregon Bach Festival Composer's Symposium in celebration of George Crumb's 75th birthday, the String Trio for George Crumb was premiered by Third Angle in July 2004. The work is in three movements. The second movement is heard here from the premiere performance. The first movement on this page is from the February 8, 2008, performance by Teo Benson, violin, Sarah Bass, viola, and Brendan Kellogg, cello. The Langroise Trio has released the complete work on their new CD, Volante .The three movements of the Voyageur Suite for brass quintet are each based on a melody sung by the French Canadian voyageurs as they paddled their canoes carrying explorers and fur traders west from Quebec in the 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries. The Suite was premiered by the Alaska brass in February 2007. The first movement, Quand J'Etais Chez Mon Pere, is heard here from the Seattle premiere performance on February 8, 2008, by Brian Chin & Matt Swihart, trumpets, Becky Miller, horn, Patrick Raichart, trombone, and Kevin Pih, tuba. The completed performance may be heard at gregbartholomew.com .On the Ground Where We Live, Greg Bartholomew's first work for full orchestra, was awarded the "Masterworks Prize" by ERM Media and recorded by the Czech Philharmonic for release on the "Masterworks of the New Era" CD series. The piece evokes the sense of walking through the community of an old town or city, where new sights and experiences are discovered around each corner. We sense a generally benign social-political environment in which individuals and small groups may interact harmoniously, although at times the world becomes ominous or chaotic. Individual voices are at turns confident, reflective, insistent or celebratory. As the ensemble builds, we may be entering a popular plaza. When the crowd gets too boisterous, we follow a pair of individual voices as they retreat for refuge in a quiet passage, but soon the larger forces return and build to a climatic conclusion. Listen to an excerpt of their 12-minute recording on this page. You may buy the CD with the Czech Philharmonic's recording of the complete work at gregbartholomew.com or download the complete work from the SNOCAP store above.Watch this film setting of excerpts from On the Ground Where We LiveSuite from Razumov (Act One), for clarinet and string quartet, was premiered by the OdeonQuartet at Seattle's Town Hall in October 2003 and was subsequently recorded by the Kiev Philharmonic for release on the "Masterworks of the New Era" CD series.
