Cosmo Copland Eschews Symphonies?

2008-06-24 00:00:00 by newmusicrebloggers in New Music reBlog
 
...eschews rhetoric I just loved this little snippet because I found it so completely absurd. Mentioning the Third Symphony but then really telling you about that wonderful, underappreciated masterpiece, The Second. Nice of the author to do that for you, huh? I mean everyone knows the big titan, but listen to the better little gem. However,...

...eschews contemporary references, pairing the soft vocal harmonies of sisters Carol Saboya and Luisa Saboia with the gently funky guitar of Jose Carlos and Adolfos own keyboards, along with a rich, smooth backing of percussion, horns, and strings Amid the current flood of re-releases and retrospectives (not that I have anything against the...

...eschews the additional instrumentation and electronic assistance prevalent in their previous recordings in favor of the more rigorously dictated form and old-fashioned composition of tsugaru-shamisen standards . If the Brothers end up turning their back on the rock-shamisen fusion that they've helped pioneer it may not bode well for their...

Schiff's Beethoven (vol. 5)

2007-12-21 00:07:00 by Patrick J. Smith in The Penitent Wagnerite
 
...eschews a deeply personalized translation, preferring to get as close as possible to the author's original language. That's not to say that it isn't personal, listening to his lecture on the Waldstein , in particular, will show as much, but it isn't an idiosyncratic or quirky performance. Schiff, as far as I can tell, places himself at the...

Detholz! demo - Next New Now

2008-01-02 20:06:40 by detholz in Detholz! Mp3 Blog
 
...eschews politics in its songs, but if I had to pigeonhole this one Id say its a confused love song to Lady Liberty. At the time this was written, we were most of the way through George W. Bushs first term in office and the Iraq invasion was in full swing. A confusing time for most Americans, no doubt Rather than reference specific events, I...

2008-01-17 20:08:00 by Jack in Pound for Pound
...eschews the current trend of spinning banger after banger from the new rave and indie dance scenes to just create a phenomenal hour plus mix that is a listening experience. It's almost shocking to see someone try to make a mix that sounds different; this one goes from spaced-out shoegazer stuff to psychedelic folk to Brazilian rock and all...

...eschews the details of the disaster and lets the characters take precedence. The protagonists, a father-son duo, also remain unnamed. Dialogue between the two is as bleak as the landscapethey mutter only a few phrases at a time. Their only motivation is survival. They trek south in slim hopes of reaching the coast and its warmer climes....

2008-01-23 06:00:18 by Doug in 1st4music.net
...eschews the glammy, pre-punk hard rock of live faves such as Stone Cold Crazy and Tie Your Mother Down for the bands more quirky club-beat string of latter-day hits , this 51-track triple-CD anthology goes a long way toward documenting the true dimensions of the bands music and fame. It even includes some solo work by Brian May and Freddie...
