Jonathan Swain

Jonathan Swain explores musical forests and jungles as portrayed by Peterson-Berger, MacDowell, Villa-Lobos and Rossini. Plus music from the Gerhard Quartet and a work by Dohnanyi.

Picking up on ideas from this week's Building A Library choice, Sibelius's Tapiola, Jonathan Swain explores musical forests and jungles through the compositional eyes of Peterson-Berger, MacDowell, Villa-Lobos and Rossini. The week's young artists are the Catalan ensemble, the Gerhard Quartet, and the neglected classic is Dohnanyi's Variations on a Nursery Song, Opus 25.
