Symphony #4 for the virtual orchestra, Prelude and Fugue and the Sonata for Virtual Cello and Piano
"Is that a real orchestra in his studio? Believe him when he says it's electronic, but Jerry Gerber's 'Symphony #4 for the Virtual Orchestra is so artfully done, so musically sensitive and convincing, that it emerges as one of the finest examples of electronic orchestration that there is. Gerber has a fine musical ear and considerable skills in translating instrumental concepts to electronic media. Other compositions on the CD include 'Prelude' (1980) and 'Fugue' (1980) for MIDI piano. And 'Sonata for Virtual Cello & Piano' (1982) is an electronic realization of a work originally composed for acoustical instruments. The production, which means composition, orchestration, MIDI programming, recording and mastering, is by Jerry Gerber. This is a very impressive CD!" |
