The Rolling Stones: Angry (Universal)<\/span><\/p>\n Rating:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n From its staccato guitar riffs to Mick Jagger’s pouting presence, the first new Stones single in three years is an instantly recognisable slice of swagger and strut.\u00a0<\/p>\n Pitched between Start Me Up and Undercover Of The Night, Angry is a textbook taster for the band’s first album of new songs in 18 years.\u00a0<\/p>\n ‘Don’t get angry with me, I never caused you no pain,’ wails the octogenarian frontman, before complaining he isn’t having enough sex and threatening to jet off to Brazil in protest. It’s ridiculous, of course, but also pretty good fun.\u00a0<\/p>\n There’s even a crunching, bluesy Keith Richards guitar solo. The band made the single, and much of next month’s Hackney Diamonds LP, with U.S. musician Andrew Watt, a producer who has worked with Justin Bieber, Ozzy Osbourne and Iggy Pop.\u00a0<\/p>\n The new album will also be the band’s first since the death of Charlie Watts, though the late drummer does play on two tracks. Steve Jordan is an adroit replacement here, although Charlie’s less-is-more style will be missed.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood at the Rolling Stones ‘Hackney Diamonds’ launch event on Wednesday<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Steve Jordan is an adroit replacement here, although Charlie’s less-is-more style will be missed, writes ADRIAN THRILLS<\/p>\n The album is out on October 20.<\/p>\n BACH: Orgel-Buchlein Vol. 1<\/p>\n (BIS BIS-2541)<\/p>\n Rating:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n AMONG the great treasures of our Western culture is Bach’s vast array of music for his own instrument, the organ.<\/p>\n The great Japanese Bach scholar Masaaki Suzuki seems to have performed and recorded virtually all the choral music and in recent years he has been giving us organ recitals.<\/p>\n This fourth volume brings us the first part of the Orgel-Buchlein or Little Organ Book, with 26 of the 45 chorale preludes based on hymn tunes from the Lutheran Church.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Suzuki plays a lovely-sounding organ from Bach’s time, the 1737 Christoph Treutmann instrument at the Stiftskirche St Georg in Grauhof, and it is all beautifully recorded<\/p>\n Most are quite short but BWV 622, on ‘O Mensch, bewein’ dein’ Sunde gross’, runs to six and a half minutes as the great intellect of Bach spins miracles from the melody.<\/p>\n Suzuki plays a lovely-sounding organ from Bach’s time, the 1737 Christoph Treutmann instrument at the Stiftskirche St Georg in Grauhof, and it is all beautifully recorded.<\/p>\n He begins his programme with the great Prelude and Fugue in A minor, BWV 543, and he breaks the chorale sequence with the Prelude and Fugue in C minor, BWV 549.<\/p>\n TEODORESCU-CIOCANEA: Archimedes Symphony etc<\/p>\n (Toccata TOCC 0668)<\/p>\n Rating:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I am not sure what the ancient Greek scientist Archimedes did to deserve it, but he has inspired a colossal Symphony.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Livia Teodorescu-Ciocanea’s album of ‘orchestral music’ including the Archimedes Symphony and the Mysterium Tremendum cantata<\/p>\n Romanian composer Livia Teodorescu-Ciocanea relates her 37-minute 2006-11 Symphony to episodes in Archimedes’s life and it begins with the battle of Syracuse.<\/p>\n LT-D employs a large orchestra to sometimes violent effect: is she kidding us, and does the music not portray equally the chilling post-war history of her native country?<\/p>\n The Romanian Radio National Orchestra does an excellent job under conductor Valentin Doni and there is also a religious cantata, beautifully sung by mezzo Antonela Barnat.<\/p>\n A Flute Concerto with a pretentious title mostly consists of breathy effects which make me think of it as The Flatulent Flautist; it was written in Huddersfield, astonishingly.<\/p>\n
