The whole album “Transclassical Concertos” will be released on August 25th 2023 on the label Bright Shiny Things/Imaginary Animals. Recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields—the most successful chamber orchestra in history with about 800 albums released with millions of copies sold and won many Gold Discs.

The opening piece, Jay says is one of the most joyous, most exuberant pieces ever written. It is a movement of a symphony, actually—the finale. Jay closes this program with Victor Borge, the musician-comedian, or comedian-musician—but in a serious vein. There is much to soak in, in this relatively brief program. Maybe the kind to listen to twice. Mozart, Symphony No. 34 in C, K. 338, finale Rorem, “Ferry Me Across the Water” Bach-Loussier, Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565 Henriques, Lullaby Join the conversation and comment on this podcast episode: https://ricochet.com/podcast/music-for-a-while/from-mozart-to-borge/.
