Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco's "What Think You I Take My Pen in Hand to Record?" is a captivating journey through the realms of chamber music, released on March 11, 2016, under the Oberlin Music label. This album is a testament to Castelnuovo-Tedesco's mastery of the genre, blending the poetic verses of Walt Whitman and William Shakespeare into a harmonious musical tapestry.
The album is divided into two main sections: the first features settings of Whitman's "Leaves of Grass," and the second showcases 28 sonnets by Shakespeare. Each piece is a delicate interplay of strings and voice, bringing the timeless words to life in a way that is both intimate and profound. The duration of the album is approximately 1 hour and 9 minutes, offering a substantial exploration of Castelnuovo-Tedesco's musical interpretation of these literary giants.
Castelnuovo-Tedesco, an Italian composer known for his rich and expressive compositions, brings a unique sensitivity to these settings. His ability to capture the essence of the poets' words and translate them into music is evident throughout the album. Whether it's the tender intimacy of "What Think You I Take My Pen in Hand?" or the timeless beauty of "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?", each track is a gem that reveals the depth of Castelnuovo-Tedesco's artistry.
This album is not just a collection of songs; it's a profound exploration of human emotion and experience, as seen through the lens of two of history's most celebrated poets. It's a must-listen for anyone who appreciates the intersection of literature and music, and a beautiful addition to any chamber music collection.
