Learning to Fall: Music of Glenn Buhr
JUNO Award Nominee!
Glenn Buhr's music shows many influences: the classical tradition,
jazz, Broadway, and music of the Near East and India. The music on this
CD presents many of these influences in a vibrant and appealing collection.
The repertoire includes his String Quartet no. 1, and his String Quartet
no. 2 (sixblues), which is a set of variations of Charles Mingus's "Goodbye
Pork Pie Hat." Also featured is the beautiful "Ritchot Mass,"
composed during the devastating Manitoba floods in 1997. Glenn's music
is performed by The Penderecki String Quartet, mezzo-soprano Anne-Marie
Donovan and the University of Manitoba Singers, conducted by Henry Engebrecht.
Catalog: MAR 237
