This Week in Classical Music: January 25, 2021. Calendar Quirks. Why couldn’t Fate be more even-handed? She, the Greek goddess of Time, is responsible for our lives, the moments we are born and die, so why couldn’t she spread geniuses more evenly? Take 52 of them – and there have been at least that many since the time of Josquin – and just deliver them once a week! But no, she’s capricious or doesn’t pay enough attention to these things. So, four days after Mozart’s birth on January 27th she gives us Schubert! And even that is not enough for her: just next to them she places two important composers of the 20th century: the Polish Witold Lutoslawski and Luigi Nono, an Italian. And then Édouard Lalo of the Symphonie espagnole fame and John Tavener, the Brit made popular by his minimalist Orthodox music. Clearly, she wasn’t done with this […]

Essential American Classics
Last year we offered an extensive tribute to the genius of Gershwin, and another - a few months later - to the compelling art of avant-garde Masters like Carter and Feldman. Yet, American music has a lot more to offer, having been, undeniably, one of the most fertile breeding ground for a variety of styles and movements both in the classical and popular repertoire over the last century. Today, we have assembled a collection of some of the greatest and most diverse personalities of the 20th Century's North American output, which we can fittingly refer to as "The Romantics". The extraordinary composers who brought new lifeblood into the great European symphonic tradition are presented here. The likes of Copland, Bernstein, Barber, Joplin, Grofé, or, decades later, Bolcom, Adams, Corigliano and - to a certain extent - Glass, plus pure visionaries like Charles Ives or French born Edgard Varèse.
