Cedille Records releases Malek Jandali Concertos, an album featuring violin and clarinet concertos by the Syrian American composer Malek Jandali, who has been praised for writing “heart-rending melodies, lush orchestration, clever transitions and creative textures'' (American Record Guide). The album, to be released on May 12, 2023, comprises world premiere recordings of Jandali's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra with Rachel Barton Pine and Concerto for Clarinet and Orchestra with Anthony McGill, performed by the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra led by Marin Alsop, a champion of the composer's music.
Violinist Rachel Barton Pine's new release marks the 25th anniversary of her pioneering album of works by Classical and Romantic composers of African descent. VPM's Mike Goldberg talks with her about the album, which features a new recording of the Violin Concerto No. 2 by 20th-century American composer Florence Price.
