Shore noted, “I too live in a place where I am encompassed by things that grow and bloom and fade. It is everchanging. It is always striving for equilibrium and harmony. I find this interconnectedness and interdependency inspiring. These are ideas I carry with me and are often the source from which I express my musical ideas.” Miloš added, “The first time I heard the piece, I was moved by the honest simplicity of its harmonies, idiomatic writing and incredibly programmatic nature that makes you instantly dream up so many colours and sceneries in your head. The work is magical, just like the enchanted forest Howard wanted to paint with his unique musical brushstrokes.” https://www.udiscovermusic.com/classical-news/milos-the-moon-the-forest/ Older info: http://www.howardshore.com/milos-performs-howard-shore/#.YDkMYuhKhaQ https://www.eamdc.com/news/world-premiere-of-howard-shores-guitar-concerto-the-forest/ https://artsfile.ca/review-not-enough-tree-in-howard-shores-the-forest/ crocodile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 The second movement of Shore's guitar concerto is out. On first listen, it's pleasant, but unfocused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arpy 4,145 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I usually find the first movements are where the magic is at. Sounds great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
