About

Commissioned by acclaimed cellist Jonathan Miller, this digital only recording of Judith Weir's Three Chorales for cello and piano is a world premiere. Weir is a London-based composer of Scottish ancestry who occupies a central position in the UK's most august musical circles. Of the Three Chorales, Weir says that these three pieces for cello and piano are meditations—personal, secular and musical—on images from religious poetry. Jonathan Miller is a member of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and has performed as soloist with numerous orchestras including the Boston Pops and Hartford Symphony Orchestra. He is the founder and artistic director of the Boston Artists Ensemble. He is joined on this recording by pianist Randall Hodgkinson, who has an international career as a concerto soloist, recitalist, and chamber musician.
