Digital Booklet
|
|||||
Carl Schimmel’s debut full-length release shows the composer at his best, writing intricate, expressive music that balances wit and pathos. Both of the Roadshow pieces were composed for his children, one for his son Otto and the other for his daughter Thora. Schimmel was inspired by the hit PBS show Antiques Roadshow and each miniature movement is an imagining of how his children might play with toys he saw featured on the show. The six movements of his String Quartet No. 2 were inspired by cubist paintings that Schimmel then incorporates as characters in the piece. The final work on the recording, The Pismirist's Congeries, returns to the light character of the Roadshow pair.
