This CD release celebrates John Mayer’s orchestral work and sees the further development from his son Jonathan Mayer, including three premiere recordings and one first commercial release. Included in this CD is John Mayer’s Second Violin Concerto, originally commissioned for the late Erich Gruenberg in 1978; it is played by Sasha Rozhdestvensky, who has a long standing relationship with First Hand Records.
Mayer’s Concerto for the Instruments of an Orchestra had its premiere performance in 1976 by The London Philharmonic Orchestra and Bernard Haitink.
Jonathan Mayer’s Pranam for sitar, tabla and orchestra is inspired by the Indian dance form Kathak and was premiered in the Czech Republic in 2017; it features the composer on sitar and Shahbaz Hussain on tabla.
His Second Sitar Concerto was again premiered in the Czech Republic in 2019 and all works are under the baton of the Indian conductor Debashish Chaudhuri.
