tavener

Hi all

I absolutely love this album - it's been a favourite for years.

Has anyone got more of a Tavener back-catalogue. What else is good?

 

This is lovely and also notable for the inclusion of some Arvo Part

 

This and This - Out of the two Svyati is my favourite.

 

thanks will investigate

 

Also Radio 3's composer of the week this week (the one hour slot at midday) - last day tomorrow but catch up on iplayer.

 

Hi Coda.

I have an Ipod (and Itunes) but don't know how to listen to old radio shows.

Any ideas how to start?

Cheers

iPlayer just works through a web browser, there's also a podcast facility but I couldn't tell you how to use that! (someone here will know).

 

We went to see the man himself conduct 'Eternity's Sunrise' performed by Patricia Rozario and the Academy of Ancient Music at the Oundle Music Festival a few years ago. (My absolute fave Emma Kirkby was also on the bill - great gig!)

This is a really atmospheric piece and it was one of the first works I played on my system after my upgrades earlier this year. The Harmonia Mundi CD also contains four other works, of which the Funeral Canticle also comes recommended.

EK sang with Anthony Rooley and the AAM. The venue was full, needless to say. It w3as a summer's evening and there was a properly filled glass of drinkable wine in the interval - not something you can always count on at these events! Now, what more could you ask for?
