Ben Jacks horn
Orchestra Victoria
The Queensland Orchestra
Barry Tuckwell conductor
Melba Recordings is pleased to announce the release of an exciting recording of French and Australian works for French horn and orchestra featuring one of Australia’s most acclaimed soloists, Ben Jacks, with Orchestra Victoria and The Queensland Orchestra conducted by Barry Tuckwell, the greatest brass player of his generation.
The title track Rhapsodie, by contemporary French composer, Jean-Michel Damase was commissioned by the famous satirist Barry Humphries for Barry Tuckwell and was first performed by him as soloist in 1987. This is the world premiere recording of this work.
Also included are world premiere recordings of the Damase Horn Concerto and Paul Terracini’s superb new orchestral arrangement of Paul Dukas’ popular Villanelle, especially commissioned for this CD and all recorded to Melba’s exacting standards.
In addition there is the well-known Morceau de Concert pour cor et orchestre, Op.94 by Saint-Saëns, the world premiere recording of the Phantasy for horn and orchestra by Australian composer, G.W.L. Marshall-Hall (1905), the first Australian horn concerto written, and Koechlin’s sensuous Poème pour cor et orchestre, Op.70bis.
Ben Jacks is Australia’s leading horn player. He studied at the University of Western Australia under Heidi Kepper. He was appointed as Principal Horn in the Sydney Symphony Orchestra in 2001 after already holding the position of Principal Third Horn in this orchestra since 1998. Ben has performed with every orchestra in Australia, playing as Guest Principal with the Tasmanian, Adelaide, Queensland, Melbourne Symphony Orchestras and the Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra (Sydney).
Ben Jacks has a busy solo career performing in solo recitals, brass quintets and in 2003 as soloist with the Sydney and West Australian Symphony Orchestras and with the Academy of Melbourne.
