This recording presents first recordings of three recent compositions by the
American composer Justin Dello Joio. John Corigliano writes that "Justin
Dello Joio is a born composer- a real musician with a sparkling craft who
has something urgent to say in his works, and the ability to say it. In an
age when so much contemporary music seems dictated by its technologically
sophisticated means, it is wonderful to hear music that is composed
completely by ear, mind and heart." Performed by four superb virtuosi, the
performances heard on these recordings provide vibrant realizations of the
music of an exciting new voice in contemporary music. Writing about Dello
Joio's Trio, John Corigliano says that the work "demonstrates Dello Joio's
ability to forge a large shape that is clear, and meaningful while providing
subtle and remarkable details along the way. Not a note is wasted in Dello
Joio's music. It is concise yet expansive, detailed yet unified,
intellectual yet dramatic." Justin Dello Joio is the 7th generation of
composer in the Dello Joio family, the son of the well-known Norman Dello
Joio. A student of Persichetti, Sessions and Diamond at Juilliard, he has
received numerous awards and has composed a large catalog of works ranging
from solo through orchestral, and recently, opera.
