The Camerata Salzburg begins a collaboration with Channel Classics and, with it’s leader Giovanni Guzzo, presents it’s first recording entitled Muses. The album includes three neoclassical masterpieces for chamber orchestra by Igor Stravinsky. The Concerto in E-flat “Dumbarton Oaks” is a small concerto in the style of the Brandenburg Concertos. Apollon musagte pays homage to Apollo, and to the Muses of mime, poetry and dance, with beautiful, harmonically pure and melodically perfect music. The Concerto in D employs every conceivable kind of string sound and technique, creating a combination of pure melodic and rhythmic drive and wonderful cantabile passages. In these three works, Camerata Salzburg delves deeply into sound, a quest made possible by each musician’s individual commitment to the ensemble, uniting the muses of chamber music, concert and orchestra.
