Schurmann: Chamber & Instrumental Music & Songs, Vol. Four
Sheet Music

SKU: NX.TOCC0520

By Mark Robson, Maxim Rubtsov, Mikhail Korzhev, and Randall Bills. By Gerard Schurmann. Classical. Listening CD. Toccata Classics #TOCC0520. Published by Toccata Classics (NX.TOCC0520).

This fourth Toccata Classics album of the chamber music of Gerard Schurmann - born in the former Dutch East Indies in 1924, naturalised Briton and now a resident of Los Angeles - adds two major song-cycles (one of them written for Britten and Pears) and works for flute and piano to the mix, in a distinctly personal language derived from influences as distinct as Javanese gamelan to Bartok and Britten. Schurmann's music somehow manages to blend elegant intensity and touching lyricism, with a result balanced between strength and sensitivity.
