2007, “The Winds of Thera”, Joseph Petric, Normand Forget and the Penderecki Quartet perform The Winds of Thera, Primavera (after Botticelli), Hymenaeus, and Pythikos nomos, Centrediscs (CMCCD 12407);
From Triton’s creation of the isle of Thera to the Pythian Games at Delphi, Andrew Paul MacDonald’s works draw heavily on Greek history and mythology for their inspiration. Dramatic yet lyrical, MacDonald’s compositions on this CD draw the listener into imaginative, yet non-programmatic, musical narratives. This recording makes a great companion to his previous Centrediscs’ title The Great Square of Pegasus which also draws inspiration from the Greek ethos.
