THE OXTET DOES HINDEMITH from Josh Oxford is a bold reimagining of classical music in a jazz fusion context. In this album, Oxford revisits some of Paul Hindemith’s greatest works. Hindemith, a late Romantic German composer, lived during the first half of the 20th century and was among the most significant composers of his time. The album contains sonatas for trumpet, tuba, trombone, and more, in which tonically complex horn lines weave above a jazz band. Recorded at Pyramid Sound in Ithaca and at Ithaca College, the timbres of the various horns along with marimba, Fender Rhodes, drums, electric guitar and bass, and more, are rendered in high fidelity. THE OXTET DOES HINDEMITH features the music of this legendary composer as you’ve never heard it before.

German music produced by a Bavarian band, the one of musician, composer and conductor Karl Barthel, consisting of more than twenty musicians mostly with wind and brass instruments. The LP, released in 1978 in Germany, brings 12 tracks, nine of which are the creation of own Barthel, offering styles as typical marches and polkas among others.

Part of the cultural fallout in Western Europe just after the First World War was the conviction that Romanticism had to be expunged from contemporary artistic life. Assorted ideologies, theories and techniques, often colliding with one another, were offered as tools for this purpose, and Paul Hindemith (1895-1963), then the boy wonder of German music, investigated a considerable number of them in his wildly eclectic compositions. What with atonal dabbling, nose-thumbing at bourgeois values via jazzy sitcom operas and so on, it was no wonder, when the National Socialists came to power in 1933, the archmoralist Adolf Hitler declared Hindemith a cultural Bolshevist.
