[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, 2019 is certainly shaping up to be a big year for Berlioz celebrations! February sees the release of the eagerly anticipated ‘Complete Works’ box from Warner Classics (also including recordings originally made by EMI, Virgin, Decca and DG), details of which can be found on the page opposite. Featuring content as recent as John Nelson’s highly acclaimed ‘Les Troyens’ alongside legendary staples of the catalogue such as Janet Baker’s ‘Les Nuits d’ete’, they certainly haven’t held back on the quality of the selections, making it seem a bit of a bargain at just over £2 per CD. Harmonia Mundi are our other label to highlight with regard to Berlioz this month: below you will find our choice for ‘Disc of the Month’ - a brand new recording of ‘Harold en Italie’ coupled with ‘Les Nuits d’ete’, featuring violist Tabea Zimmermann and baritone Stephane Degout, both brilliantly supported by Francois-Xavier Roth and his group, Les Siecles - plus they have just issued a fascinating version of ‘Symphonie fantastique’, performed on a two-keyboard Pleyel instrument in a new arrangement by Jean-Francois Heisser. Piano transcriptions have always had a rather niche following, but we would urge you to give this one a try - we have thoroughly enjoyed the soundworld of the instrument and the musical insights that result. We have actually had to cram an unusually large number of new releases in this month (partly due to catching up since Christmas), but highlights to point out include the start of a new Schubert Symphony cycle from Edward Gardner (Chandos); beautifully performed late-Liszt from Cedric Tiberghien (Hyperion); a box of the complete keyboard works of Francois Couperin from Carole Cerasi (recorded by Metronome to mark the anniversary last year); Parry’s complete violin and piano works (EM Records); a superb Handel Acis and Galatea from The Sixteen (Coro); Schubert and Weber Piano Sonatas from Paul Lewis (Harmonia Mundi); and a previously unrecorded operatic work by Liszt, ‘Sardanapalo’ (Audite). Great to see the classical record industry still going strong! As always, you will find plenty of new special offers to explore, including the catalogues of some excellent independent labels such as CPO, ECM New Series, Coro and Berlin Classics, selections from Hyperion and Brilliant Classics, archive anthologies from Scribendum, and DVDs/Blu-rays from Euroarts. Best regards from, The Europadisc Team DISC OF THE MONTH Berlioz Harold en Italie, Les Nuits d’ete £12.95 Tabea Zimmermann, Stephane Degout, Les Siecles, Francois-Xavier Roth or pay just Harmonia Mundi 902634P £9.95 With Debussy Year barely over, it’s already time for the record companies to start if your order value marking 2019’s 150th anniversary of the death of Hector Berlioz.

And what a treat it is! Here is historically informed performance at its absolute best, the ranks of French wind instruments in particular immaculately voiced and blended to make this whole disc an absolute joy to listen to. The viola soloist is Tabea Zimmermann, already well experienced in this score, whose beauty of tone, exquisite phrasing and natural stylishness infuse the passive observer Harold with a particularly sympathetic mien. Les Nuits d’été doesn’t normally appear on disc alongside Harold en Italie on disc, nor is it usually heard with a male singer, but here it is extraordinarily effective, a yin to Harold’s yang. And with a baritone of Stéphane Degout’s musicality and sensitivity to text, Théophile Gautier’s verses are as well served as they have ever been.

Carefully selected from the Warner Classics and Erato catalogues with some additions from Decca and Deutsche Grammophon, they span more than 60 years, from 1956 to 2018. Among them are: the multi-award winning 2017 recording of Les Troyens conducted by John Nelson; the Symphonie fantastique and Lélio conducted by Jean Martinon; Janet Baker singing Les Nuits d’été conducted by Sir John Barbirolli, and L’Enfance du Christ conducted by John Eliot Gardiner. The edition also contains a number of world premiere recordings, most notably the surviving fragments of the unfinished opera La Nonne sanglante. Featuring leading French soprano Véronique Gens, these were recorded at their world premiere performance at the 2018 Berlioz Festival in La Côte-Saint-André, near Lyon. The edition offers a special bonus in the form of the two earliest recordings of Berlioz’s music, produced by Pathé at the beginning of 20th century: two of Didon’s arias from Les Troyens are sung by Marie Delna and Félia Litvinne, and for the very first time on CD the first ever recording of the Symphonie fantastique under Rhené-Baton’s baton, recorded in 1923. Berlioz was born in La Côte-Saint-André in 1803. The town’s Hector Berlioz Museum, an official partner in Hector Berlioz: The Complete Works, has supplied numerous documents and images for the lavish 160-page booklet. Along with material from France’s Bibliothèque Nationale, they complement fascinating notes by David Cairns – perhaps the world’s leading authority on Berlioz. 3 PRIORITY NEW RELEASES Sony/RCA New Year’s Day Sibelius Concert 2019 Symphonies 1-7 from Vienna Orchestre de Paris, VPO, Thielemann Paavo Jarvi £12.95 £34.95 Sony 19075 902822 (2CD) RCA 19075 863412 (11CD) also available on DVD & Blu-ray Black Composers Series 1974-1978 £26.95 19075 862152 (10CD) Black Composers Series is a collection of a ground-breaking series of recordings which features the music of black composers.

  • PMMS Josquin Des Prez Discography June 2021
    Josquin des Prez Discography Compiled by Jerome F. Weber This discography of Josquin des Prez (Josquin Lebloitte dit des Prez), who has been indexed as Josquin Desprez, Des Près, and Pres, adopts the format of the Du Fay discography previously posted on this website. It may be noted that at least three book titles since 2000 have named him simply “Josquin,” bypassing the spelling problem. Acknowledgment is due to Pierre-F. Roberge and Todd McComb for an exhaustive list of records containing Josquin’s music in www.medieval.org/emfaq. It incorporates listings from the work of Sydney Robinson Charles in Josquin des Prez: A Guide to Research (Garland Composer Resource Manuals, 1983) and Peter Urquhart in The Josquin Companion (ed. Richard Sherr, Oxford, 2000), which continued where Charles left off. The last two lists each included a title index. This work has also used the following publications already incorporated in the three cited discographies. The 78rpm and early LP eras were covered in discographic format by The Gramophone Shop Encyclopedia of Recorded Music (three editions, 1936, 1942, 1948) and The World’s Encyclopaedia of Recorded Music (three volumes, 1952, 1953, 1957). James Coover and Richard Colvig compiled Medieval and Renaissance Music on Long-Playing Records in two volumes (1964 and 1973), and Trevor Croucher compiled Early Music Discography from Plainsong to the Sons of Bach (Oryx Press, 1981). The Index to Record Reviews compiled by Kurtz Myers (G. K. Hall, 1978) provided useful information. Michael Gray’s classical-discography.org has furnished many details. David Fallows offered many valuable suggestions.

In order to make a thorough and clear analysis of this relationship a structural/semiotic analysis has been developed as the analysis of best fit. Historically it has been fashionable to see Liszt's symphonic poems in terms of sonata form or a form only making sense in terms of the attached programme. Both of these ideas are critically examined in this analysis.

Während ihrer Entstehung habe ich diverse Unterstützungen ver- schiedener Personen und Einrichtungen erhalten. Zu allererst gebührt Prof. Dr. Silke Leopold für die Betreuung der Arbeit ein herzliches Dankeschön! Sie hat alle Phasen der Dissertation – Themenfindung, Anlage und Konzeption, Verschriftlichung – mit wertvollen Hinweisen und Anregungen zum Über- und Weiterdenken begleitet. Außerdem hat sie mir ermöglicht, wäh- rend der gesamten Promotionsphase ununterbrochen unter anderem als wissenschaftliche Hilfs- kraft am Musikwissenschaftlichen Seminar der Universität Heidelberg angestellt zu sein, und damit einen finanziellen Rahmen für die Arbeit geschaffen. Dafür bin ich ihr ebenfalls sehr dankbar. Daneben hat Prof. Dr. Dorothea Redepenning im Doktorandenkolloquium immer wie- der das Projekt mit nützlichen Ratschlägen unterstützt und zudem dankenswerterweise das Zweitgutachten übernommen. Überhaupt danke ich allen Teilnehmern des Doktorandenkollo- quiums: Zum einen habe ich in den Diskussionen nach meinen Referaten stets positive Anre- gungen für die Gestaltung der einzelnen Kapitel erhalten, zum anderen hat die Lektüre kultur- wissenschaftlich orientierter Texte im Rahmen des Kolloquiums dazu geführt, gewinnbringend aus einer anderen Blickrichtung auf die eigene Arbeit zu schauen.
