MARGARET SWINCHOSKI- Reviews THE HUDSON VALLEY margaret Swinchoski (fl); Ron pianist, Ron Levy. I so enjoyed your tone - it's very lovely. Best Wishes and many thanks, Jeanne baxtresser" (Former http://www.margaretswinchoski.com/Reviews
Extractions: SCHROTH Spring in Bucks County This is one of those "little" recordings that will not get much press or have many sales but will be treasured by the few people lucky enough to happen on it. Margaret Swinchoski's captivating program consists of four varied works for flute, each with different accompaniment. The music is all examples of American Impressionism. That the earliest music was written some 80 years before the latest is really only apparent from reading the notes and the dates of the composers involved. All the music is firmly tonal and not much advanced from the harmonic discoveries of Debussy. Two works are for flute and strings, with the one by Leo Kraft that gives the whole program its title adding a harp to the strings. Kraft's piece takes the listener through a variety of moods, and I was reminded again and again of the accompaniments to those peculiarly highbrow cartoons that occasionally showed up in my distant youth. If there were such a thing as a neoclassical tone poem it would be this. The other work with strings, Arthur Foote's A Night Piece , dates from 1918 in its original version. It is heard here in a revision for string orchestra done in celebration of the composer's 80th birthday in 1933. A serene interlude of eight or so minutes, it somewhat recalls Delius among others.
