RHAPSODIC CELLI:
THE MUSIC OF FRANK CORCORAN
RTÉ lyric fm CD154
Soloist Martin Johnson explores Frank
Corcoran’s writing for cello in all its
nuances, from the swagger of a concerto
and the rhapsodic polyphony of his
work for eight cellos through to the
composer’s arrangements of folk tunes
for cello and piano informed by the
rhythmic patois of the Irish language.
