New from Karl Jenkins: Sarikiz for Violin and Piano
(April 2011)
A highly approachable violin concerto in three movements, with a flexible scoring for strings and optional wind and percussion.
The work was commissioned by Sapar Iskakov in memory of his great Kazakh ancestor, composer and kobyz player Tlep Aspantaiuly (1757-1820) and is based in part on Kazakh folk melodies. It has been recorded on the album Quirk (EMI Classics), which brings together four concertos by the composer of Adiemus.
