Discovery

Patrick Millstone composed his 'Discovery March' for Gobelin Music Publications' 'Discovery Series' : The music in this series is meant to be a journey of discovery for incipient musicians who have started playing in an ensemble. 'Discovery March' is a cheerful march in which the melody part is not only played by the lead instrument but rather by all instruments in turn.

Internationally renowned classical guitarist David Leisner plays a live concert program with some pieces that are well-known and others that may be new to guitarists. One of the discoveries is the Sonata in b minor byWenzeslaus Matiegka (1773-1830) an unduly neglected composer that Leisner calls 'the Beethoven of the Guitar'. It’s a great addition to the Guitar repertoire. Another discovery is Leisner’s own Nel Mezzo: Sonata whichSoundboard magazine called 'an original and profoundly personal work...powerful angry and moving music'. Now played quite a bit the music of Johann Kaspar Mertz (1806-1856) was virtually unknown when Leisner recordedand published some of his music almost 30 years ago. Here two of Mertz’s pieces display the passionate Romanticism of this music. The classics include the sublime Prelude Fugue and Allegro by J. S. Bach two delightful Rags byScott Joplin in Leisner’s arrangements and a dazzling encore of Etude No. 12 by Villa-Lobos.Leisner introduces each piece informally and is interviewed during intermission by Andrew Dickenson. Theinterview covers a number of topics in depth including some of Leisner’s secrets about easing physical tensions while playing the Guitar and his thoughts about the music he’s playing and about composition.
