Popis - SACRED MUSIC OF ROBERT MANSELL:
Robert Mansell was born in London, England, where he started writing music almost as soon as he began to play the piano at the age of nine. Towards the end of a career as a business executive, he moved to America where he stayed for thirty years before returning to Britain in 2009. During that period overseas he became musically associated with the American Reformed Church in Charlotte Amalie, St . Thomas and later was made the Music Director of the Frederick Lutheran Church there. His music is rich in chromatics, which makes it harder to perform than it might appear. In addition to the choral works on this CD he has written an amount of piano music and much secular music (CDs of both of which are already available on this site) and also some works for the stage – including ‘Marlene’, a musical based on the life and loves of Marlene Dietrich; and ‘Willm S’, based on the life and loves of WiIliam Shakespeare, which was premiered in Florida in 2005 and subsequently recorded as an Audio-book by Coolbeat.biz. Mansell’s music, although contemporary, is quite traditional, never straying far beyond the bounds of conventional romantic tonality.
