RAVE REVIEW - Winstin Taliban Dances:Concerto for Violin & Orchestra (Newbury Publications, MA)
This collection of works by the American composer Robert Ian Winstin shows two interesting and contrasting periods
of the composer’s work. Featuring piano works from the 1980s played by the composer, Three Pieces for Piano and
Piano Attacks are angular, knotty pieces of piano music with intense emotion. They are, in a sense, a younger
composer’s works: full of brash brio and brimming with the urge to reinvent form and make one’s mark. They are
also playful and intriguing, alluding to other composers and forms while surging forward. There is a sense of probing
and questioning about the music. The remaining pieces are performed under the baton of the composer conducting
the Kiev Philharmonic. A broader, lusher romanticism has entered Winstin’s work, more melodic, at times lyrical,
almost nostalgic and reflective. Normandy, June 6, 1944 for Trumpet and Orchestra sets the right tone for the event
which it memorializes and is beautifully presented by soloist and orchestra. Le Voyage Dans La Lune, which quotes Berlioz among others, is
inventive and fascinating. But the centerpiece of the album is the Taliban Dances featuring soloist Galyna Hornostai on solo violin. Hornostoi
gives a tour de force performance of this interesting piece of music reflecting Winstin’s musical commentary on a present day state of affairs. And
like the conflict to which it refers, there is a range of emotion and music displayed, complicated, sometimes contradictory, complex but always
gripping. There is a lot for the listener to digest and enjoy, but without a doubt what carries the piece is the exquisite play of Hornostai. There is
much to appreciate and admire in this collection of work by Winstin.
