Description
An exciting concert, performed by Joseph and Anthony Paratore on two pianos, features four groundbreaking works by twentieth century composers. One of which caused a riot, two became immediately popular and endearing to concert audiences and one remains important as an exploration of the future in music. Igor Stravinsky's ground breaking piece the "The Rite of Spring" is considered the most famous and groundbreaking composition of the early twentieth century. George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" and "Concerto in F" are two of the most popular pieces by an American composer for Orchestra, and are one of the first classical compositions to be influenced by jazz. Charles Ives is a uniquely individualistic American composer. His iconoclastic and rarely performed work "Three Quarter Tone Pieces" is featured as a tribute to Ives and his musical vision. This DVD also includes the option of viewing running commentaries on the pieces as they are performed as well as liner notes, a glossary of music terms, historical markers for the pieces, and performer profiles. Audio playback options are 5.1 dolby digital and non-compressed stereo.
