Published by Ronald Beckett (A0.928610). These pieces appear on the Arcady CD “A Beckett Miscellany†from 2002. Listening to these charming suites, epilogues, fantasias, dances, toccatas, and trios by Canadian composer Ronald Beckett makes one realize just how far the neo-tonal counter-revolution has come. Written over a 23-year period, these are cheery, player-friendly 'works to be shared' (in the composer's words) employing baroque counterpoint, occasional minirealist rhythms, and lots of diatonic tunes. Arcady, a chamber group founded by Beckett himself, plays with bubbly energy. -American Record Guide If Ron Beckett's music is half as much fun to write as it is to hear, he must go around smiling all the time -Richard Todd, Ottawa Citizen.
