Review
In this richly varied Passiontide sequence, polyphonic settings
of the great texts of Holy Week are interwoven with a plainchant rendition of
the mournful Stabat Mater: the traditional medieval poem meditating on the death
of Jesus and the grief of his mother.
Dans la richesse de ce programme pour le temps de la Passion
s'entre-tissent les grands textes associés à la Semaine Sainte et les strophes
en plain-chant du Stabat Mater médiéval, poétique méditation sur la mort de
Jésus et la douleur de sa mère.
In diesem abwechslungsreichen Programm zur Passionszeit sind
mehrstimmige Chorwerke auf die bedeutenden Texte der Karwoche mit einer
gregorianischen Wiedergabe des traurigen Stabat Mater verbunden: das
traditionelle mittelalterliche Gedicht, das über den Tod Jesu und seine
wehklagende Mutter nachdenkt. |

Graham Ross (b1985 - )
Graham Ross is a composer and conductor of a wide range of
repertoire. A passionate believer in the unveiling of lesser-known works, he has
given numerous first performances as both a pianist and conductor of a very
broad spectrum of composers. He studied at Clare College, Cambridge, and in
London at the Royal College of Music, generously supported by an H.R. Taylor
Trust Award for Conducting and a BBC Performing Arts Bursary. As a composer he
studied principally with Giles Swayne, and has had works performed at numerous
concerts and festivals in both live and broadcast performances, including as far
afield as Slovenia, Kuwait, Israel, Lebanon and Australia. He is co-founder and
Principal Conductor of The Dmitri Ensemble, and in addition regularly guest
conducts numerous ensembles and orchestras. His freelance work has taken him to
Aldeburgh, Glyndebourne, Salzburg, Spitalfields and Jerusalem, and he holds a
special relationship with Aalborg Symfoniorkester, Denmark. In 2010 he was
appointed Director of Music at Clare College, Cambridge at the age of
24.
