Arthur Bliss: Werke für Blechbläser on Super Audio CD
Werke für Blechbläser
The SACD uses a higher digital resolution than the audio CD and also offers the possibility to store multi-channel sound (surround sound). To enjoy the music in high-end quality, a special SACD player is required. Thanks to the hybrid function, most of the products marked "SACD" in our store can also be played on conventional CD players. In this case, however, the sound does not differ from that of a normal CD. In case of deviations, we point this out separately (non-hybrid).

Sir Arthur Bliss steuerte zwei Klassiker des Blasmusikrepertoires bei – Kenilworth und The Belmont Variations –, deren anhaltender Erfolg die Arrangeure dazu inspirierte, sich anderen Kompositionen zuzuwenden, wie Eric Balls Vier Tänze aus dem Ballett Checkmate und Phillip Littlemores Suite aus der Filmmusik für Things to Come. Drei neue Arrangements wurden eigens für dieses Album erstellt: Robert Childs’ Suite aus dem Ballett Adam Zero und Michael Halstensons Bearbeitungen von Welcome the Queen und Musik aus The Royal Palaces. Insgesamt spiegelt dieses Programm die Essenz von Bliss’ Kompositionsstil wider: die inhärente Dramatik seiner Partituren für Film, Ballett und Fernsehen und sein Gespür für das Zeremonielle, insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit seiner Position als Master of the Queen’s Music.
