CD REVIEWS
Rautavaara: Lost Landscapes
Simone Lamsma, violin; Malmö SO; Robert Trevino, conductor Ondine ODE1405-2
Lost Landscapes is the title of one of the last pieces composed by the Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavaara. It’s a violin concerto based upon reminiscences of places that were of great importance to Rautavaara’s creative journey in the mid1950s. The first is Tanglewood, where Rautavaara worked with Copland, the second is Ascona in Switzerland, the third his Vienna lodgings (an 18th century palace that was something of a relic), and the fourth his apartment in New York. The works on the recording all date from after Rautavaara’s recovery from an aortic dissection, an event
that kept him in hospital for six months in 2004. They all have a calm and nostalgic peace about their character with sweeping melodies above buoyant accompaniment textures. The performances from violinist Simone Lamsma and the Malmö Symphony Orchestra are clear and beautiful under the direction of Robert Trevino. This recording is a relaxing and moving survey of the late music of the most important Finnish composer of the latter part of the 20th century.
– James Nightingale
This recording presents us with an intriguing view of the early career of Maurice Ravel, documenting the works he composed for the Prix de Rome competition between 1900 and 1905. To the great puzzlement of his supporters, Ravel was never successful in the pre-eminent competition for French composers, several times not even getting through the first round. This recording, which is meticulously compiled, brings us the three cantatas and the five choral fugues that Ravel composed for the competition. The choral fugues
were written for the first part of the competition, with successful finalists progressing to write a dramatic cantata to a set text. The highlight for me was the second disc which brings us the choral fugues, works that are clearly that of Ravel, reminiscent of Daphnis et Chloé, hinting at the wonderful music to come from Ravel’s mature works but having a forced quality, dictated by circumstance. I found this recording to be fascinating with beautiful playing from French singers and the National Orchestra of the Pays de la Loire.

Archetypes
Harry Mitchell Bandcamp
In producing his sixth album under his name and his thirteenth as a leader, Harry Mitchell wanted to create an album with a unifying theme, particularly one that could convey something about our lives through music. Carl Jung’s Man and His Symbols provided him with the perfect springboard for this process. In his book, Jung proposes that some symbols and ideas are part of a universal human consciousness that has a parallel to how musicians communicate when they are improvising. Performing with Mitchell on Archetypes is a high-octane quartet of Western Australianbased first-call musicians. Saxophonist Jamie Oehlers, bassist Karl Florisson, trumpeter Ricki Malet, and drummer Ben Vanderwal encompass the musical influences on the album,
with the pianist Cecil Taylor and the saxophonist Steve Coleman embracing a spread of styles, moods, and tempos. Mitchell’s pianism and composition are full of gradation and dash with a soupçon of grace. Thus, the album is appropriately titled. The ensemble ducks and dives through his compositions like Hero with its changing time patterns, sprints through Jester, and gently strokes the face on a favourite piece, Lucid Dreaming, exhibiting that this band is one tight working team creating a stellar recording.

Blakey Obihiro Bandcamp
Pianist/composer Aaron Blakey’s latest offering is a collection of original compositions, weaving in memories from New Zealand and Australia with his time spent in Japan, in a session that is a travelogue of sorts within the jazz universe. It is hard to resist tapping one’s feet along to the swinging brass, drums, bass, and piano that these guys so expertly deliver. Infused and bursting with a multitude of melodies left, right, and centre, Blakey assembles a tight quintet of core players with whom he has frequently played in live situations, taking the listener through a journey of nine original compositions of his, which hew closely to the post-bop canon. Saxophonists Michael Avgenicos’s (tenor) and Andrew Crago’s (alto) solos are consistently sharp and engaging. Their tones adopted for the
most part are not blustery but sunshiny and pleasant with their two-horn interplay creating some dazzling moments. Bassist Tom Botting and drummer Tim Firth are calmly efficient and expertly professional, doing what needs to be done. Blakey is an extremely talented pianist who solos and comps with assurance. The addition of the National Jazz Award-winning guitarist Peter Koopman on four of the tracks is a bonus for delivering some beautifully crafted solos on Taupo Bay, Little Person, and Ebisu, the stand-out favourites. Revealing his strong musicianship everywhere, Blakey has released an album with strong themes and multicoloured hues that will make you want to revisit it often.

look after Christian and make sure he comes to no harm. For his part, Christian, however handsome he may look, cannot manage to say the right thing, especially not in the company of women. So, to help him, Cyrano writes letters in Christian’s name. These letters enthral Roxane, making her fall in love with the writer, whom she thinks is Christian. Cyrano’s corp of cadets is surrounded at the Siege of Arras, starving and abandoned. Cyrano continues to write to Roxane, always pretending to be Christian. At a moment of great tension, a wagon appears with supplies for the Gascon Cadets, a wagon driven by Roxane, who has stolen through the Spanish lines to reach the French army. As the Spanish attack, Christian is mortally wounded and Roxane finds ‘his’ last letter on his body. Cyrano decides not to tell her the truth of its author.
Roxane retires to a convent and, years later, Cyrano visits her. He has been wounded in a duel but puts on a brave face. He asks Roxane to read the last letter from Christian. When Cyrano is able to repeat it without reading it, Roxane realises that Cyrano must have been the author of all of Christian’s letters and that she has been in love with Cyrano all of these years. It is now too late, as he dies.

Capellio, leader of the Capulets, refuses to seal a peace agreement with the Montagues by marrying his daughter Juliet to Romeo, insisting that she marry her cousin Tebaldo instead. Romeo is in love with Juliet and is loved by her. He attends the wedding in disguise, to try to rescue Juliet from the wedding ceremony, but is discovered. Lorenzo, Juliet’s doctor and sympathetic to the lovers, provides her with a sleeping potion that will cause her to appear as if dead. He then will
bring Romeo to the family vault and rescue her when she wakes. Lorenzo is arrested and Romeo, unaware of the scheme, believes Juliet to be dead and takes poison. Juliet wakes and, finding him dead, drinks the final drops of poison and dies. Their bodies are found by Capellio and Lorenzo.

MR PICKWICK: Simon Butteriss, bar MRS BARDELL: Gaynor Keeble, mezz TOM: Alessandro MacKinnon, treb
THE BAKER: Toby Stafford- Allen, bar Stephen Higgins, pf & dir. Retrospect Opera RO002 55
Mr. Pickwick lodges with widowed Mrs. Bardell who fancies him as her next husband. Pickwick is preparing to set off on an excursion and has decided to engage a servant as a
general factotum. He sends Mrs. Bardell’s son Tom with a note, offering employment to Sam Weller. Mrs. Bardell believes he has sent Tom away so that he can propose to her. The Baker, a keen suitor, arrives with marriage lines, ready for Mrs. Bardell to sign. Certain that Mr. Pickwick will soon plight his troth, she sends The Baker away. Pickwick is anxious because Tom has not returned. Worried about the cost of a servant, Pickwick asks Mrs. Bardell if two can live as cheaply as one. She, thinking this is his roundabout way of proposing, throws her arms around him, and declares she will ‘never quit him’.
The Baker, seeing Mrs. Bardell in Pickwick’s arms, declares he’ll marry someone else. Tom returns and finds Pickwick’s friends waiting on the doorstep. They espy him embracing Mrs. Bardell, who has fainted. Pickwick shouts an explanation to his friends, and assures them that he is ‘free’. Hearing this, Mrs. Bardell threatens Pickwick with prosecution, thereby encouraging the Baker to make another proposal.

Princess Helene and Lieutenant Niki of the Army are to be married and her father, Prince Joachim XIII of Flausenthum, declares that Niki is to be heir apparent to his throne. Niki is sceptical as this position of prince is not financially beneficial and he misses his home in Vienna and its customs. After the marriage, Niki is unhappy and secretly leaves the palace with his comrade Lieutenant Montschi for a pleasurable evening in the beer garden.
At the beer garden, Niki is attracted to Franzi, a ladies' orchestra leader. A scheming Count Lothar who wishes to have a liaison with Franzi, arranges for the Prince and Princess Helene to be present at the same venue. When Niki dances with Princess Helene, Franzi realises that Niki is married to the Princess.
Princess Helene discovers that Niki is unhappy and is longing for familiar Viennese customs. An immediate change is implemented in the palace: Viennese dress code, furniture and even meals. Niki, as expected, is happy with the new surroundings and soon willingly
accepts Princess Helene without restrictions, renouncing Franzi, who also decides that she no longer cares for Niki.

While Golaud is out hunting, he encounters a strange girl sitting by a pool in the forest. After repeated urging, she tells him that her name is Melisande, and she agrees to follow him out of the woods. They marry but, six months later, Golaud still knows nothing about Melisande. Melisande loses the ring given to her by

Golaud. He enlists the help of his half-brother, Pelleas, to find it. Melisande is carrying Golaud’s child but she and Pelleas develop an intimate relationship, which arouses Golaud's jealousy. Golaud kills Pelleas, and after the subsequent death of Melisande in childbirth, Golaud’s grandfather, King Arkel, declares that the infant daughter must now live in Melisande’s stead.

Blanche Dubois has problems dealing with reality and lives in her own world. She arrives unexpectedly to live with her younger married sister, Stella, in a cramped apartment in New Orleans. There is instant friction between Stella’s husband, Stanley Kowalski, and Blanche. She finds him loud and rough and thinks her sister has married beneath her. Stanley is suspicious of Blanche and determined to find out about her past. She is nervous and jittery and seems to have a drinking problem.
As the weeks pass, Blanche is being courted by one of Stanley’s poker-playing buddies, Mitch. Meanwhile, Stanley has discovered the secrets of Blanche’s past, that she was fired from her teaching job for involvement with an underaged student and that she lived at a hotel known for prostitution. He tells Stella, who erupts in anger after he tells her that he has also told Mitch. They argue and Stella goes into labour and is taken to hospital. As Blanche waits at home alone, Mitch arrives and confronts her with the stories that Stanley has told him. At first, she denies everything, but eventually confesses that the stories are true. She pleads for forgiveness. An angry and humiliated Mitch rejects her.
Stanley returns home to find that Blanche has descended into another fantasy and she falsely claims that Mitch had asked for her forgiveness but she had rejected him. Stanley taunts her about her lies and behaviour. She threatens to attack him with a broken bottle, but he overpowers her.
Blanche has a mental breakdown but Stella can’t believe that Stanley has raped her. When a doctor and a matron arrive to take Blanche to the hospital, she goes, saying: ‘Whoever you are – I have always depended on the kindness of strangers’.
