Description

Violinist Rachel Barton Pine's 26th recording for Cedille Records, Dependent Arising, reveals surprising confluences between classical and heavy metal music by pairing Shostakovich's Violin Concerto No. 1 in A minor, Op. 77 with Earl Maneein's Dependent Arising" - Concerto for Violin and Orchestra, performed with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra under the baton of Tito Muñoz. Known for her virtuosity, expressive playing, and extensive repertoire, Pine discovered her love for heavy metal as a teenager, and later performed at rock radio stations where she would intersperse covers of songs by Black Sabbath, AC/DC, and Metallica with works by Paganini and Ysaÿe. The album explores connections between modern classical music and heavy metal and showcases Pine's unique journey with these two seemingly disparate genres. Now a staple of the classical concerto repertory, Shostakovich's emotionally charged Violin Concerto No. 1 also holds a special place among metal enthusiasts, with it's diverse movements ranging from haunting Nocturne to relentless Burlesque. Earl Maneein's "Dependent Arising" pushes the boundaries of traditional concerto composition and draws inspiration from the Western European classical music tradition, the world of "Extreme Metal, " and the composer's practice as a Buddhist. An acclaimed violinist and composer known for his unique and innovative fusion of western classical music, heavy metal, and hardcore punk, Earl Maneein has been praised by Metallica's Robert Trujillo as "a kick-ass artist who pushes the creative boundaries." Both concertos explore themes of struggle, oppression, and defiance, which define Shostakovich's oeuvre and resonate deeply with the essence of heavy metal music. The album was produced by the Grammy-winning team of James Ginsburg and engineer Bill Maylone, with session engineering by the RSNO's Hedd Morfett-Jones. It was recorded January 7-8, 2022 at Scotland's Studio, Glasgow."
