Michael Fine: A Time of Uncertainties

Emmanuel Villaume conducts the PKF-Prague Philharmonia in the second of Michael Fine’s Three Orchestral Essays: A Time of Uncertainties…

Michael Fine wrote A Time of Uncertainties in an airport lounge in the United States. He was flying back earlier than planned, home to The Netherlands, after learning that his wife had entered a hospital’s intensive care unit, dangerously ill. The doctor he spoke with was not optimistic. He finished the piece moments before the flight was called. Happily, his wife made a full recovery. Fine had been attending a premiere of a piece conducted by Philip Mann when his wife became ill. This world premiere recording of A Time of Uncertainties in conducted by Mann with musicians from his Ensemble Bravura. A Time of Uncertainties became the middle movement of Three Orchestral Essays.

Robert Heppener: Nachtklange / Canto carnascialeschi / Spinsel

A Singer’s Farewell Semi-staged performance with beautiful music from the Romantic period. There was a time when increasing age meant wisdom and respect. That is no longer self-evident. Singing at the highest level has a limited duration. At some point, singers say goodbye to the family from which they seemed inseparable.
