James Whitbourn - Moving Ground /

James Whitbourn - Moving Ground Version for piano solo of a movement from the Celtic Suite Programme Note: James Whitbourn Moving Ground (2006) The Ground Bass (or simply ‘Ground’) was often used in baroque music - especially in England - and by earlier keyboard writers such as William Byrd. It consists of a constantly repeating bass line over which melodies and flourishes are heard. This ground bass is unusual in that it alternates 3/4 and 4/4 bars within its four-bar pattern. The melody line, played in the right hand, should always be flowing, with the repeated notes at the end of phrases gently tapered off. Careful use of the pedal ensures that a harmony is built from the notes of the ground bass. James Whitbourn was born in Kent and educated at Skinners' School before winning a scholarship to Magdalen College, Oxford, where he gained his first two degrees. His international reputation as a composer developed from his early career as a programme maker at the BBC, during which he produced many award-winning programmes and developed a style known for its direct connection with audiences. His close association with the BBC Philharmonic resulted in three large-scale commissions for voices and orchestra. His "Son of God Mass" has had many performances worldwide, especially in the USA and Europe. In 2005, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra with the Choir of Clare College Cambridge, under Leonard Slatkin, premiered his largest choral work Annelies, a setting of the Diary of Anne Frank, at London's Cadogan Hall to wide critical acclaim. Television credits include music for the BBC's coverage of the Queen Mother's funeral, and major BBC series Son of God. Among many international awards and achievements, he has earned three GRAMMY nominations (including Best Choral Performance for Annelies) and a Royal Television Society Award. He is an Honorary Research Fellow of St. Stephen's House, University of Oxford, and is a member of Oxford's Faculty of Music.
