[email protected] Your Account Number: {MM:Account Number} {MM:Postcode} {MM:Address5} {MM:Address4} {MM:Address3} {MM:Address2} {MM:Address1} {MM:Name} 1 Welcome! Dear Customer, Young Norwegian soprano Lise Davidsen has gradually been garnering attention in recent years, perhaps making the leap to a wider awareness following her award of Gramophone’s ‘Young Artist of the Year’ in 2018 and her sublime performance of Strauss’s ‘Morgen’ at the ceremony. Ariadne was her major role last year; 2019 sees her take on the part of Elisabeth in Tannhauser - Zurich and Munich have already had the pleasure and she will be taking it to Bayreuth in July, under the baton of Valery Gergiev in a brand new production. Pleasingly for those of us who won’t manage to catch her live, her debut album on Decca has just been released, featuring two arias from Tannhauser plus orchestral lieder (and one aria) by Richard Strauss. We have been hugely impressed, especially considering her mere 32 years of age, making it a clear choice for Disc of the Month. Please see our website for our full review. Other new releases to highlight for June include a second lieder recital from Decca, performed by none other than Renee Fleming; Hyperion issue the latest in their series of ‘Romantic Violin Concertos’, this volume featuring works by Lassen, Scharwenka and Langgaard; the Vaughan Williams Society offer us his works for viola and piano via the Albion label; the final instalment in the Halle’s superb Ring Cycle (Siegfried) is released on the Halle’s own label; and stunning vocal ensemble Vox Luminis give us a treat in the shape of works by the Bach Family.

A special thank you is for Dr. Paul Cohen, who was so kind to have a critical look at my use of the English language. INTRODUCTION We saxophonists all know that Adolph Sax developed two saxophone families. One that is in use today and best known is the E flat, B flat group, the other is the F, C-family. From this last family, consisting of different types including soprano in C, alto in F, tenor in C, baritone in F and bass saxophone in C, the C tenor saxophone is the only family member that has had some serious role in saxophone history. It is an instrument, that forms a link between the alto in E flat and the tenor in B flat.

Many living composers join us throughout the season, and I am particularly delighted to welcome the pianist and composer, innovator, improviser and Harvard Professor, Vijay Iyer. I invited him to represent the idea of music without borders throughout this very special season. Brahms, Britten and Bach also dominate the season, as well as the Hall welcoming the world’s best song recitalists and pianists. We particularly look forward to recitals from Sir Bryn Terfel, Anna Caterina Antonacci, Susan Graham, Thomas Hampson, Philippe Jaroussky, Marianne Crebassa and the pianist Leif Ove Andsnes, who will perform both a solo recital and a concert with Musicians from the Mahler Chamber Orchestra.
