about
This month’s Subscriber track comes from trombonist Ryan Keberle, the newest member of the Greenleaf Music family. Here’s what Ryan says about his track Ginastera:
I was first introduced to the Argentinian composer, Alberto Ginastera, by my mom, Ann Keberle, who is a pianist, music director and piano teacher in Spokane, WA. She performed Ginastera’s Creole Dance Suite, Op. 15, for her senior recital at Lawrence University and encouraged me to learn the piece on piano when I was in high school (my mom was my piano teacher). The Creole Dance Suite is composed of 6 contrasting movements that embrace the passion, drama, and rhythmic energy of Argentine folk music with 20th century solo piano music. I immediately connected with the piece, and in particular, with movements three (which you are about to hear) and six. In fact, movement three had such an impact on me that my wife and I chose it be performed as a musical interlude during our wedding ceremony! I’ve done nothing but re-orchestrate the original solo piano arrangement for a pared down version of Catharsis including Jorge on bass and Camila on voice. I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed performing it!

In the Ivory
by Matt Ulerysupported by 585 fans who also own “Ginastera”
This is one of the albums that really sweep me away, no matter which track I'm listening to, and its pleasantly long running time of almost 80 minutes guarantees a maximum sweeping effect. Basically, Matt Ulery is a jazz musician and composer playing the double bass, but the magic he creates on this and other albums is well beyond the confines of the genre. The brilliant varied orchestrations clearly put it into a neo-classical chamber music frame, frequently reminding me of Argentine chamber folk, and the smooth vocals contributed by Grażyna Auguścik and Sarah Marie Young add considerably to the magic, as does the piano work of Rob Clearfield, who's a great composer himself.
