Royal Northern College of Music Wind Orchestra & Clark Rundell, Mark Heron - Bennett: Old American Dances (2016) [Hi-Res]


The Royal Northern College of Music Wind Orchestra and its director Clark Rundell, with the guest conductor Mark Heron, explore the works of Robert Russell Bennett in this eagerly-awaited new recording.

Bennett is best known for his orchestrations for 300-plus musicals between 1920 and 1975. He worked alongside the great songwriters of ‘golden age’ Broadway – Gershwin, Porter, Kern, Rodgers, Loewe, Berlin, and more – his contribution far more than dutifully putting a songwriter’s piano music into the orchestra, measure by measure. His rich career left us a heritage of more than 200 original compositions, more than thirty of which were written for wind band, inspired by, as Bennett put it, ‘its apparently inexhaustible colours and its fabulous vitality’.

Deeply committed to world premiere performances and recordings of new music, the RNCM Wind Orchestra under Rundell and Heron here dedicate its energy and brilliance to a unique, highly enjoyable programme.

Many thanks for this recording, which I have been eager to hear for some time, with its combination of well-known classics such as the Suite of Old American Dances and the Symphonic Songs for Band, along with works making their first (or among their first) appearance on disc!
