  • Mark Padmore
    ` BRITTEN Death in Venice, Royal Opera House, Covent Garden At the centre, there’s a tour de force performance by tenor Mark Padmore as the blocked writer Aschenbach, his voice apparently as fresh at the end of this long evening as at the beginning Erica Jeal, The Guardian, November 2019 Tenor Mark Padmore, exquisite of voice, presents Aschenbach’s physical and spiritual breakdown with extraordinary detail and insight Warwick Thompson, Metro, November 2019 Mark Padmore deals in a masterly fashion with the English words, so poetically charged by librettist Myfanwy Piper, and was in his best voice, teasing out beauty with every lyrical solo. Richard Fairman, The Financial Times, November 2019 Mark Padmore is on similarly excellent form as Aschenbach. Padmore doesn’t do much opera, but this role is perfect for him………Padmore is able to bring acute emotion to these scenes, without extravagance or lyricism, drawing the scale of the drama back down to the personal level. Mark Padmore Gavin Dixon, The Arts Desk, November 2019 Tenor ..It’s the performances of Mark Padmore and Gerald Finley that make the show unmissable. …Padmore……conveys so believably the tragic arc of Aschenbach’s disintegration, from pompous self-regard through confusion and brief ecstatic abandon to physical and moral collapse. And the diction of both singers is so clear that surtitles are superfluous. You will not encounter a finer performance of this autumnal masterpiece. Richard Morrison, The Times, November 2019 BACH St John Passion¸ Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Simon Rattle. Royal Festival Hall, London Mark Padmore has given us many excellent evangelists, yet this heartfelt, aggrieved, intimate take on St John’s gospel narrative, sometimes spiked with penetrating pauses, still seemed exceptional.

    KEY RELEASES | January 2012 STÉPHANE DENÈVE CONDUCTS ROUSSEL © J Henry Fair Albert ROUSSEL (1869-1937) Le festin de l’araignée (The Spider’s Banquet) Padmâvatî Ballet Suites Nos 1 and 2 Royal Scottish National Orchestra ∙ Stéphane Denève One of Roussel’s most performed orchestral works, The Spider’s Web was composed during his earlier impressionistic period, and depicts the beauty and violence of insect life in a garden. Roussel’s experiences as a lieutenant in the French Navy first introduced him to Eastern influences, and the ‘operaballet’ Padmâvatî was inspired by his later visit to the ancient city of Chittor in Rajasthan state of western India. It uses aspects of Indian music to evoke this city’s legendary siege by the Mongols. This is the fifth and final volume in Stéphane Denève and the RSNO’s acclaimed survey of Roussel’s orchestral works. “An excellent disc, splendidly and idiomatically performed and a superb advertisement for composer, conductor and orchestra. Highly recommended.” (Gramophone on Vol. 4 / 8.572135) Booklet notes in English Listen to an excerpt from The Spider’s Banquet: Catalogue No: 8.572243 Total Playing Time: 54:53 About Stéphane Denève Stéphane Denève is the newly-appointed Chief Conductor of the Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra (SWR) and, since 2005, Music Director of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. He has made regular appearances with the Scottish orchestra at the Edinburgh International Festival and BBC Proms and the Festival Présences, and at celebrated venues throughout Europe including the Vienna Konzerthaus, Amsterdam Concertgebouw, and Théâtre des Champs-Elysées.

His complete set of the Beethoven sonatas enjoyed extraordinary acclaim in the UK, culminating in the prestigious ‘Recording of the Year’ award from Gramophone magazine for the fourth volume in 2008. Encouraged by what has now become a worldwide success, Paul Lewis has chosen to turn his attention to the five piano concertos with these distinguished partners. Recorded between July 2009 and March 2010, these interpretations paint a portrait of Beethoven full of light and shade. Paul Lewis studied with Joan Havill at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, before going on to study privately with Alfred Brendel. Today, Paul Lewis is a regular guest at many of the world’s most prestigious venues and festivals, performing with leading orchestras and conductors such as Sir Colin Davis, Bernard Haitink, Christoph von Dohnanyi, Sir Mark Elder, Sir Charles Mackerras, Wolfgang Sawallisch, Sir Andrew Davis and Marin Alsop. He has given recitals across Europe and the United States, as well as in Japan and Australia. Paul Lewis has a particularly strong relationship with London’s Wigmore Hall, where he has appeared on more than 40 occasions and where he launched a Schubert cycle with tenor Mark Padmore.
