“Buried Alive” unearths Roaring 20s classics
Michael Nagy delivers what seems like a stream of consciousness monologue. Schoeck knew how to write for the voice -- and Nagy knows how to bring Schoeck's music to life.
Honegger More Than One-Hit Wonder
If you’re not familiar with Honegger, or – worse yet – only know his one hit, this disc can be a revelation.
Cello Concertos by Mid-Century Masters
Recommended to anyone interested in unusual repertoire. And if you *hate* 20th Century music, you really should get a copy of this disc!
