  • MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings of the Year 2018 This
    MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings Of The Year 2018 This is the fifteenth year that MusicWeb International has asked its reviewing team to nominate their recordings of the year. Reviewers are not restricted to discs they had reviewed, but the choices must have been reviewed on MWI in the last 12 months (December 2017-November 2018). The 130 selections have come from 25 members of the team and 70 different labels, the choices reflecting as usual, the great diversity of music and sources - I say that every year, but still the spread of choices surprises and pleases me. Of the selections, 8 have received two nominations: Mahler and Strauss with Sergiu Celibidache on the Munich Phil choral music by Pavel Chesnokov on Reference Recordings Shostakovich symphonies with Andris Nelsons on DG The Gluepot Connection from the Londinium Choir on Somm The John Adams Edition on the Berlin Phil’s own label Historic recordings of Carlo Zecchi on APR Pärt symphonies on ECM works for two pianos by Stravinsky on Hyperion Chandos was this year’s leading label with 11 nominations, significantly more than any other label. MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE YEAR In this twelve month period, we published more than 2400 reviews. There is no easy or entirely satisfactory way of choosing one above all others as our Recording of the Year, but this year the choice was a little easier than usual. Pavel CHESNOKOV Teach Me Thy Statutes - PaTRAM Institute Male Choir/Vladimir Gorbik rec. 2016 REFERENCE RECORDINGS FR-727 SACD The most significant anniversary of 2018 was that of the centenary of the death of Claude Debussy, and while there were fine recordings of his music, none stood as deserving of this accolade as much as the choral works of Pavel Chesnokov.

  • Symfoni Nr. 16 “Deluge of Sun” (BVN 417) Preface
    THE RUED LANGGAARD EDITION EDITION WILHELM HANSEN Rued Langgaard: Symfoni nr. 16 “Deluge of Sun” (BVN 417) Critical first edition by Bendt Viinholt Nielsen Preface About Symphony no. 16 Symphony no. 16, completed on 16th April 1951, is Rued Langgaard’s last major work, a concluding artistic tour de force from the composer, who was then weakened by illness. Langgaard’s worklist between this work and his death in July 1952 was only increased by a few small organ, piano and choral pieces. The symphony was written in the course of a month, but not according to a fixed plan. The idea of a new symphony first arose at the end of March 1951 in connection with the sketching of the two latest movements in time, the Scherzo (II) and the Finale (V). Such a formally crucial element as Movement III, which was composed in 1950 as an independent orchestral piece, was not incorporated in the symphony until after the fair- copying of the other four movements had been concluded on 14th April 1951. The dating 16th April 1951, which also features as an end-dating in the sources, may well refer to this concluding expansion and completion of the symphony. Movement III, which is the oldest part of the symphony, was written between 20th June and 1st August 1950 – in two bouts of activity, since the introductory 62 bars were added after the main body of the movement had been completed in fair copy. The movement constituted an independent composition with the title Orchestral Prelude to Strindberg’s “Stormy Air” (‘Oväder’) or simply Stormy Air (Uvejrsluft in Danish).
