Eschewing all obvious display, he concentrates on the Sonata's Monumental weight, grandeur and ever-elusive inner poetry. His sense of drama is dark and intense and his reading of the central Andante sostenuto alone puts his performance in the highest league…one of the finest, most intelligently planned Liszt recitals to have come my way for many years. Harmonia Mundi's sound is of demonstration quality.” Bryce Label: harmonia mundi Morrison, Editor’s Choice, Gramophone, October 2004 File Under: Classical/Instrumental “a performance of unflinching energy and power, of youthful intensity and sharp- edged clarity. There’s never a moment Catalogue No: HMA1951845 that isn’t filled with interest or edge- of-the-seat excitement. Lewis’s playing has an irresistible magnetism. It has a Barcode: 3149020184530 reflective charm, too, in the shorter, lesser-known pieces that complete this Liszt homage - the delicate Four Piano BUDGET Price Pieces, the delicious En Rêve and the pensive La Lugubre gondola among them." KENNETH WALTON, The Format: 1 CD Scotsman, 10 September 2004 Paul Lewis [piano] “Lewis's refusal to indulge in self-conscious flamboyance generates tremendous, brooding intensity throughout. Those who equate Liszt purely with bravura showmanship will probably be fazed. If you really care about his music, however, you'll love it." Tim Ashley, The Guardian, 17 September 2004, ***** "[Lewis] tackles Liszt's monumental Sonata with an energy and power that sweeps all before it, while allowing room for thoughtful introspection, too. It's an astonishing performance." Andrew Clarke, The Independent, 2-8 October 2004, 4/5 “Oh and Santa, if you’re passing, I wouldn’t mind at all if you dropped Paul Lewis’s majestic account of the Liszt B minor Sonata down the chimney.” Lindsay Kemp, Critics’ Choice, Gramophone, December 2004 RELEASE DATE 14TH JULY 2014 LASSUS: Lagrime di San Pietro Philippe Herreweghe This cycle of 21 spiritual madrigals for seven voices is at once the swansong of the most famous composer of his time, who died in 1594 at the age of 62 just three weeks after dedicating the work to the Pope, and the highpoint of Counter-Reformation polyphony. More than four centuries later, the ‘Tears of St Peter’ still have the power to move. This title was released for the first time in 1994. * Gramophone Collection JUNE 2014 Lassus 'Lagrime di San Pietro' TOP CHOICE, commenting: "to my mind, it's one of the finest recordings of Renaissance music ever made" Label: harmonia mundi File Under: Classical/Choral Catalogue No: HMA1951483 Barcode: 3149020148334 BUDGET Price Format: 1 CD Maria-Cristina Kiehr Johanna Koslowsky (cantus) Simon Berridge, Gerd Türk (altus) Hervé Lamy, Peter Kooy (tenor) Adrian Peacock (bassus) Ensemble Vocal Européen Philippe Herreweghe [conductor] RELEASE DATE 14TH JULY 2014 BRUCKNER: Symphony No.3 [1873] DSO Berlin, Kent Nagano “In what will surely prove a landmark performance, Nagano wrings every last nuance from fine German players.” Anthony Holden, The Observer, 20 June 2004 "A fascinating recording...Nagano captures the reverence and agitation of the symphony perfectly, gleaning a bright, luminous tone from the strings." Anna Picard, The Independent on Sunday, 14 July 2004 “The orchestra rises to the challenge of sustaining Bruckner’s immensely long paragraphs, and there’s some wonderful solo playing.” Ivan Hewett, The Times, 19 June 2004 Label: harmonia mundi File Under: Classical/Orchestral Catalogue No: HMA1951817 Barcode: 3149020181737 BUDGET Price Format: 1 CD Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin Kent Nagano - Conductor RELEASE DATE 14TH JULY 2014 Cipriano de RORE: Missa Praeter rerum seriem Huelgas-Ensemble Paul Van Nevel Like Willaert, Cipriano de Rore was one of the great Flemish composers who spent their entire career in Italy.

Gilbert also edited the complete harpsichord works of Jean-Henri d'Anglebert, Bach's Packaging: digipack Goldberg Variations, Frescobaldi's first and second books of toccatas and Rameau's complete harpsichord works. In 1968, he gave his first recital in London and undertook an international career. Stephen Plaistow in Gramophone (May Kenneth Gilbert [harpsichord] 1973) said: 'Kenneth Gilbert's achievement... is to rescue the music from a small circle of connoisseurs and to make it... universally enjoyable. He does so by harnessing the discipline of scholarship to his flair for performing the music... Not since Thurston Dart... has there been such a fruitful coincidence of the scholar's mind and the performer's fingers in this field'. He has made well over 50 recordings on the Harmonia Mundi and Archiv labels, as well as a host of more specialised lines. He has focused on French music and many of his recordings are considered standards. Originally issued in 1994. ALSO AVAILABLE: HMD9909036 Kenneth Gilbert harpsichord & organ.

  • Opera Olimpiade
    OPERA OLIMPIADE Pietro Metastasio’s L’Olimpiade, presented in concert with music penned by sixteen of the Olympian composers of the 18th century VENICE BAROQUE ORCHESTRA Andrea Marcon, conductor Romina Basso Megacle Franziska Gottwald Licida Karina Gauvin Argene Ruth Rosique Aristea Carlo Allemano Clistene Nicholas Spanos Aminta Semi-staged by Nicolas Musin SUMMARY Although the Olympic games are indelibly linked with Greece, Italy was progenitor of the Olympic operas, spawning a musical legacy that continues to resound in opera houses and concert halls today. Soon after 1733, when the great Roman poet Pietro Metastasio witnessed the premiere of his libretto L’Olimpiade in Vienna, a procession of more than 50 composers began to set to music this tale of friendship, loyalty and passion. In the course of the 18th century, theaters across Europe commissioned operas from the Olympian composers of the day, and performances were acclaimed in the royal courts and public opera houses from Rome to Moscow, from Prague to London. Pieto Metastasio In counterpoint to the 2012 Olympic games, Opera Olimpiade has been created to explore and celebrate the diversity of musical expression inspired by this story of the ancient games. Research in Europe and the United States yielded L’Olimpiade manuscripts by many composers, providing the opportunity to extract the finest arias and present Metastasio’s drama through an array of great musical minds of the century. Andrea Marcon will conduct the Venice Baroque Orchestra and a cast of six virtuosi singers—dare we say of Olympic quality—in concert performances of the complete libretto, a succession of 25 spectacular arias and choruses set to music by 16 Title page of David Perez’s L’Olimpiade, premiered in Lisbon in 1753 composers: Caldara, Vivaldi, Pergolesi, Leo, Galuppi, Perez, Hasse, Traetta, Jommelli, Piccinni, Gassmann, Mysliveek, Sarti, Cherubini, Cimarosa, and Paisiello.

A rich manuscript tradition has facilitated numerous studies ofAquitanian sacred music, but to date most previous research has focused on one particular facet of the repertoire, often in isolation from its cultural context. This study seeks to view Aquitanian musical culture through several intersecting sacred and secular concerns and to relate the various musical traditions to the region's broader societal forces.

The Papal State, who wanted to seem virtuous achieved at least outwardly like all these stories about love, lust, passions and all the ancient heroes and gods was morally rather questionable.

Their rule saw a particular increase during the reign of Maximilian I, secured first by his marriage to Mary of Burgundy in 1477 and then by the union of their son Philip ‘the Handsome’ with Joanna ‘the Mad’ of Castille.
