Textura Reviews Migration

Posted by Reference Recordings on

Textura Magazine gives The University of Texas Wind Ensemble and Jerry Junkin’s Migration album a warm review:

“Expertly helmed by Jerry Junkin, The University of Texas Wind Ensemble has been commissioning new music and performing world premieres for more than three decades. …Migration is very much characteristic of Schoenberg’s music and shows why he’s been twice named one of the most performed living composers by orchestras in the United States.… In [Corigliano’s] dazzling set-piece, Gunn glides confidently over the ever-shifting base and sometimes engages in antiphonal to-and-fro with the ensemble’s players.… [Jennifer Jolley] created [The Eyes of the World Are Upon You] as a powerful elegy, defiant statement, and expression of horror. Unsettling episodes appear, but so too do elegiac ones that honour the victims’ memory.… Montague’s Intrada 1631 offers a dynamic conclusion to the recording… The album’s four works differ dramatically in character and style, though that’s hardly a bad thing; if anything, it enhances the impact of the release in showing the range of which The University of Texas Wind Ensemble is capable. Its musicians prove themselves as adept at essaying Corigliano’s challenging score as capturing the emotional essence of each of the other three pieces.”

—Ron Schepper, Textura
