| You know all those years Rossini lived after he completed his final opera when he composed no music? If he had composed music during his latter years it would sound like these compositions by Dennis Busch. You hear it said that the public is looking for contemporary music that is accessible. Well, here it is. Dennis Busch makes the film composer John Williams sound like an atonalist. But you know what? I can see why MMC put this disc out. There is a real charm to this music. The tunes are good, like Rossini, rather than Stamitz or Dussek or Pleyel. Dennis Busch writes: "I began musical instruction at an early age. During my adolescence, I became addicted to and strongly influenced by the operas of Rossini. At the age of eighteen, I began formal instruction in composition in Fairlawn, New Jersey. For a period of seven years, the rules of harmony, composition, counterpoint, and orchestration were drilled into me. After five years of intensive study and countless four-part harmony exercises, I composed my first work, a set of five sonatinas for piano. I continued composing a large corpus while making a meager living by giving lessons in theory and harmony in my basement studio. Upon the passing of my father in 1986, I came into a large inheritance which left me financially secure. I left Fairlawn to occupy dreary rented rooms in Paramus, devoid of basic living necessities. In spite of this, I managed to produce the score to an opera, An Idle Rumor, writing on the edge of dresser. I now live in Lodi, New Jersey. I am a full-time composer. My morning hours are devoted to the creation of one musical work after another. Since I joined the American Music Center in 1980, I have over 600 works on file there. Someday I hope to leave the world a better place than I found it." One last comment about the music of Dennis Busch. Busch is not a contemporary composer who writes in a tonal idiom for the normal 20th century orchestra, but rather a 20th century composer who writes not only in the style of the late 18th or early 19th centuries, but for the same size orchestra that existed during this time as well. A pleasing sound. | |||||
