Notes

The multi-award-winning Latvian composer riks Eenvalds 21stcentury choral sound is both exquisite and angular, and in this album he explores ideas of translation, legend and the divine. With his expanded tonality and employment of shimmering singing handbells in Translation, and the angelic use of the viola and cello in In paradisum he creates music of ravishing refinement. In The Legend of the Walled-In Woman Eenvalds transcribes and employs an authentic Albanian folk song.

Reviews

“…Whether you are new to Ešenvalds’s music or returning to it in eager anticipation, this is an excellent program that demonstrates his many strengths as a composer, not least of these a deep understanding for what challenges vocal ensembles to give their best, and then to give a little beyond that… This ensemble is of an international quality and should inspire college and university choirs everywhere…”

Raymond Tuttle – Fanfare – November/December 2020

Critics’ Choice 2020

“As the days grow shorter and the curtains are drawn earlier, I am lured back to the Portland State Chamber Choir’s ravishing all-Ešenvalds album, ‘Translations’, mostly for its highly soothing, comforting factor but also for the stunning choral performances under Ethan Sperry…”

Malcolm Riley - Gramophone magazine - December 2020

"Portland State Chambe Choir produces a beautifully blended sound in Ešenvalds's multi-layered, atmospheric music ..." ***

Oliver Condy - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - June 2020

John Quinn – MusicWeb-International.com – 16 April 2020

“… It [Portland State Chamber Choir] is one of the best choirs in the United States, and this CD is further proof of its high standard. The performances on this CD are excellent, very atmospheric, with excellent solo performances. The choir sings with much warmth, clarity and flawless intonation. In addition, the performances have also been beautifully recorded.” ****
