A little bit of recycling, but worth it..........2005-09-11

Joaquín Sabina remains the undisputed king of Spanish pop, thanks to his lyrical brilliance and an ever expanding style of grand music that never fails to impress. The first disc of this boxed set is Sabina's awe-inspiring album "Dímelo En La Calle", but the second disc is worth the price if you don't own "Calle". Some demos and unreleased songs are here, and versions of songs such as "La Canción Más Hermosa Del Mundo", sung by Sabina and Pablo Milanés. If you don't have "Dímelo En La Calle" (and you should), run, don't walk and order this double shot of one of the world's most gifted songwriters.

Album Description

Few composers have exercised as vigorous a political conscience as did the late Luigi Nono. Beginning his career as a dedicated 12-tone composer (and Schoenberg's son-in-law), Nono consciously sought to revolutionize both music and society in his large output. Significantly, many of Nono's compositions were highly expressive and individualistic settings of texts from authors as diverse as Nietzsche and Latino Labor Leader, Caesar Chavez, to the anonymous inscriptions of political prisoners. The miracle of Nono's music is the tremendous beauty and intensity he was able to forge using such disparate material. The compositions on this disc, masterfully performed by Rupert Huber and the Vokalensemble Stuttgart, are definitive readings of some of the most difficult choral music EVER composed. And yet, despite all the avant garde techniques, the sonic impact of these scores has the otherworldly beauty of Gregorian chant. Make no mistake; this is an essential recording o! f music by one of the 20th century's greatest composers!

Great performances of important choral music.......2003-11-25

This disc contains two short choral pieces from the middle of Nono's career and a longer one from the end. Cori di Didone, a setting of love poetry for choir and percussion, dates from 1958 while Da un diario italiano, for 72 solo voices, is a complex setting of texts from the Italian resistance written in the mid 1960s. In contrast to these intense pieces, Das atmende Klarsein, for small choir, bass flute and electronics, is a study for Nono's opera Prometeo, written in the early 1980s.

Cori di Didone continues from where the last movement of his first masterpiece, Il Canto sospeso, left off. Complex yet clear choral writing--often containing open fourths and fifths, a precursor of his late work--floats over sometimes-aggressive percussion work. This is a touching miniature, though not amongst Nono's most important works.

Rather more musically cluttered is Da un diario italiano. The composer evidently was never truly satisfied with this work, as he returned to it several times without ever producing a definitive score, and indeed this is the first recording of the work. Its complex vocal counterpoint--and explicit political content--point towards a the style that created the masterpieces of the 1970s, Como una ola de fuerza y luz and Al gran carico sole d'amore. However, the later works are more finished, less congested, the style more refined and effective.

I have no such complaints about the final work, Das atmende Klarsein. A set of calls and responses for small choir against electronically-modified bass flute, this predominantly peaceful work glows with the radiant sounds of open fifths and fourths. Some of the choral writing, in particular, is astonishingly beautiful, the style very much pointing towards the opera Prometeo--but in a much more concise 37 minutes as opposed to 137 for the opera.

The performances here are outstanding, under the direction of the experienced German conductor Rupert Huber. The coordination in the difficult Da un diario italiano is phenomenal, yet the luminous sound of Das atmende Klarsein is just as impressive. However, there is a rival Das atmende Klarsein on the market, a live performance also directed by Huber. Its coupling is somewhat weightier, the piano-and-tape piece ...sofferte onde serene..... and the percussion and electronics sextet Con Luigi Dallapiccola. I have not heard the rival recording, so cannot compare performances, but I believe that nobody buying the present disc will be disappointed.

Not very serious........2002-12-04

Once you die, your compositions can be used to say what you have not said when you were alive. It's not serious to record and sell a piece that Nono had not premiered during his life. The publisher has not the right to make money with "Da un diario italiano", composed in 1963/1964, 26 years before Nono's death. The performances are not marvelous. And the booklet is full of missprints: "Scabia Giuliano" instead of "Giuliano Scabia", "fianto" instead of "flauto", "Archivi Luigi Kani" instead of "Archivio Luigi Nono", and so on. The cover says that the pieces are sang by the SWR Vokalensemble Stuttgart under Rupert Huber, but omits the WDR Rundfunkchor Köln, that, according to the third page of the booklet, is the performer of two out of three tracks. Coherently, the booklet does not mention who conducts these pieces or who plays the percussion, but informs us about who has prepared the WDR choir.

Groundbreaking Choral Work.......2002-08-29

Nono is the most human and engaging of the serialist set from Darmstadt. And his work for choral forces is unequalled, certainly among the serialists. He predated the vocal experiments of Ligeti and Berio by several years. This disc is a great sampling of early, middle and late period Nono.

The first work on the disc is for choir and percussion. The music takes it's direction from Nono's seminal work, Il Canto Sospeso. The voices are treated as almost solo instruments, and the words of the text are treated serially along with other elements of the music. The result is a stunning wash of sound that can sound like a precusor to Ligeti's Requiem of 5 years later. The text is unusual for Nono at this time. It focuses on romantic love rather than his more typical political material, but the style clearly leads in the direction of his first great theater piece, Intollerenza.

Nono's musical styles actually can be said to be summed up by his big theater works. The second choral work on this disc actually began as a study for a theater piece that never was developed, but you can hear in Da un Diario Italiano the spectacular vocal writing that would make Al gran sole carico d'amore such a shattering theatrical experience ten years later. The Diario is scored for 72 solo vocalists, but, unlike Penderecki's massed sounds, this work requires extreme precision in each of the parts, making it nearly impossible to find a performance. As such the work languished for years until this recording. And this performance reveals what a stunning piece this is. Based on collected texts from common Italians reacting to floods and uprisings, the piece has the deep humanism and love for people that characterized Nono's music in this period.

The final work on the CD, Das Atmende Klarsein is one of Nono's first and finest works in his late style, and contains seeds that would flourish in the theatrical work Prometeo. This piece is post-serialist...neither tonal nor atonal. Nono is interesting in sonority here, specifically the sound of fifths. The work is basically monodic, with thickening of textures occuring at points in the choral writing. We are worlds away from the density of Diario here. The sole accompaniment to the choir is a bass flute which is processed with live electronics. The flute is relegated to interludes which comment on the previous section and provide contrast. The overall feeling of this work is contemplative...almost otherworldly. I don't know quite what was driving Nono personally duringthis period, but the break in style is so profound, it is almost as if he has become another composer...just as moving as the earlier work, but altogether different.

Performances are superb, particularly in the Diario, which I imagine may be one of the most difficult choral works ever composed (and don't let anyone fool you....if someone sang wrong notes, it would be noticable in this music! That's an old slander against the avant-garde that is simply not true.) This is a highly recommended disc, one that I will come back too often.

Music to close your eyes to......and be transported.......2007-06-27

I first heard this music on the radio. It took a lot of hunting around to get it and I was not disappointed when it arrived. The music is uplifting without being too airy. It has substance and depth. I have not heard anything like this music before, quite unusual & quite lovely. Thankyou.

''Babado Novo'' (New Gossip) is one of the best ax?music bands of the moment. Although ax?music from 2k's is not as good as ''old'' ax?music from the 90ies, there are still some nice songs that appear every year.''Bola de Sab?o'' is the best song off this studio album. This song itself makes the CD worth buying.

Great Album by Venditti.......1999-12-20

This album contains some of the best titles in one compilation by Antonello Venditti. I was sent this album by a dear friend in southern Italy in my last year of college. My flatmate (from northern Italy) used to borrow it to listen to it. I guess this album made him feel somewhat homesick because he knew all the stories behind each song. I absolutely loved it and would recommend it to anyone who feels passionate about Italian music!

If you are tired of all the crappy reggeaton out on the radio and want a change of pace that has layers of instrumentation, deep meaning to their songs, and a more laid back feeling this cd is for you.

Stylistically is similar to Bob Marley in how the instruments flow, but the mood of the music has more changes than in the average Marley song. And of course it is in spanish.
