Something almost being said: Music of Bach and Schubert
Simone Dinnerstein's new album, Something Almost Being Said: Music of Bach and Schubert, combines J.S. Bach s Partitas Nos. 1 and 2, with Schubert's Four Impromptus, Op. 90, and was produced by Grammy Award winning producer, Adam Abeshouse. Dinnerstein says of her new album, "Bach and Schubert, to my ears, share a distinctive quality. Their non-vocal music has a powerful narrative, a vocal element. The effect is that of wordless voices singing textless melodies. Bach and Schubert s melodic lines are so fluent, so expressive, and so minutely inflected that they sound as though they might at any moment burst suddenly into speech." Inspired by lines from Philip Larkin s poem, The Trees, Simone Dinnerstein brings her own unique voice to Bach s first two Partitas and Schubert's Four Impromptus revealing the inherent vocal qualities in these instrumental works.
