Harold Farberman The All Star Percussion Ensemble One-Step 45RPM (2 LP)

Actually, Harold Farberman would have deserved the status of a star long ago – if percussionists were idolized just as much as pianists, guitarists, saxophonists or other experts in their instrument. The present recording contains four classical works that can be assigned to the early Romantic, Romantic, and Baroque periods, and which, viewed from the perspective of the original compositions, could not be more different. 10 of the best percussionists from the most renowned American orchestras as well as from the Royal Danish Orchestra come together under the baton of Färberman and play between 60 and 80 different percussion instruments – per work! The recording, produced by the legendary Andrew Kazdin, creates a fascinating soundscape that is not often heard in concert halls.
Farberman studied percussion at the Juilliard School of Music and became the youngest member of the Boston Symphony Orchestra at the age of 20. During this time, he began studying composition, wrote his first own pieces and later, as a conductor, led orchestras such as the London Symphony Orchestra and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. His oeuvre includes three operas for percussion instruments, various works for orchestra and chamber ensembles, film music and compositions for dance companies. Today he holds a professorship at Bard College in New York.
