Editorial Reviews "Over almost a half-century, Korte has carved out a personal, non-dogmatic body of work which both reflects the trends of the period and places his own personal stamp on them. His career, with its devotion to individual expression and a refusal to accede to any single "ism", is a reminder that those who look only to the traditional centers of musical activity do so at their peril, for they can miss art of genuine substance in the process." —Robert Carl
Album Description
This musical overview of the works of Karl Korte reaches back to as early as 1959 and demonstrates the many compositional paths that Korte has taken in his lifetime of work. Featuring many gifted musicians, including soprano Christine Schadeburg in the 1986 work, Five New Zealand Songs, as well as saxophonist Albert Regni in a 1973 recording of Symmetrics, this disc is an important challenge to the notion of stylistic singlemindedness. It includes both new digital recordings as well as two digital remasterings of works by the composer who was professor of composition for 26 years at the University of Texas at Austin.
