Joel
Quarrington is probably the best-known soloist on the string bass in North America
and probably the world. He was principal bass with the Toronto Symphony from
1991 to 2006, and is presently principal bass with the National Arts Centre
Orchestra in Ottawa. He has performed solos throughout the world and performed
with many of the world’s leading string quartets. Coenraad Bloemendal has
performed solos with orchestras through Canada and plays with some of the best
chamber ensembles in Canada. This CD presents duos by well-known names from the
classical period as well as the world premiere recording (and performance) of a
piece, based on themes by Bach, written especially for the duo by renowned
award-winning composer and jazz bassist Don Thompson. The name “In Memory of
Glenn” refers to Glenn Gould, with whom Bloemendal, Quarrington, and Thompson
worked frequently. They were involved in the last recording that Glenn Gould
did before his death.
