May 2016 List Web Version May 2016 Catalogue Prices valid until Tuesday 28�� June 2016 unless stated otherwise 0115 982 7500 [email protected] 1 Welcome! Dear Customer, Welcome to our new style catalogue! Many people have commented over the years on how our monthly listings can be a little bland and uninspiring, so we have long been wanting to make improvements. We now find ourselves in the position to be able to achieve this and hope you like the result. Please rest assured that no content has been ‘watered- down’ as a consequence of these changes! All information that would have been present previously continues to be so, but hopefully in a clearer, easier-to-read format. Feedback will be welcomed if you have any comments, either positive or (constructively) negative… New releases to highlight this month include new discs from Alison Balsom (a trumpet and piano recital) and The John Wilson Orchestra (Gershwin) on Warner Classics, the first instalment in a Mozart Violin Sonata series from Alina Ibragimova on Hyperion, beautifully presented and performed G&S in the form of HMS Pinafore from Scottish Opera and Richard Egarr (Linn), the second volume of British Violin Sonatas from Tasmin Little (Chandos), and the final disc in Gergiev’s series of Scriabin Symphonies with the LSO (LSO Live). Not quite so many boxsets this month as we might usually see, but our picks include the latest ‘Decca Sound’ compilation featuring 55 CDs of Great Vocal Recitals, the 2015 Lugano Festival highlights from Martha Argerich and Friends (Warner), and two titles from Sony Classical: ‘Great Moments at Carnegie Hall’ including performances from Richter, Bernstein, Horowitz, Menuhin, Rostropovich and many more (43 CDs) and the complete Columbia album recitals from legendary mezzo Frederica von Stade (17 CDs). Our special offers for May include the complete catalogues of Signum, Melodiya, Ricercar, Arcana, Ediciones Singulares (beautifully produced book CDs), SDG and Arthaus DVD. There are also budget titles from Harmonia Mundi in the form of their ‘Musique d’Abord’ series and the ever-popular 10CD boxsets from Documents now reduced to just £11.95 each. Best regards from, The Europadisc Team DISC OF THE MONTH Overtures from the British Isles vol.2 £11.95 Including works by Ansell, Bowen, Coates, Foulds, Leigh, Mackenzie, or pay just Parry, Quilter, Smyth and Walton £8.95 if your order value BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Rumon Gamba exceeds £50* Chandos CHAN 10898 * to qualify for the special price, your order value must exceed a Rumon Gamba and the BBC National Orchestra of Wales present the second volume total of £50 excluding this in their exploration of rarely heard overtures from the British Isles. recording and before any applicable carriage charges. Introducing these neglected works, the conductor explains: ‘All the overtures on this Offer available while stocks last. disc belong to the period between 1890 and 1945. In this present selection, however, we see perhaps even more clearly the evolution of musical style, and in particular the use of harmony, in the armoury of the British composer.’ He adds: ‘Rather by accident it seems that we have a nautical theme running through the disc (‘Rule, Britannia!’ makes an appearance in two of the overtures!), perhaps the most familiar work being Walton’s Portsmouth Point. I was surprised to find out that there are relatively few recordings of this little masterpiece. Likewise I was amazed to learn that the BBC National Orchestra of Wales had not played the piece for many years. So it made a perfect maritime choice alongside Britannia, The Boatswain’s Mate, Plymouth Hoe, and Tom Bowlin.’ 2 PRIORITY NEW RELEASES DG and Decca Field Haydn Complete Nocturnes 107 Symphonies Elizabeth Joy Roe (period instruments) Hogwood, Dantone, £11.50 Bruggen Decca 478 9672 £54.95 limited edition Decca 478 9604 (35 CD) Light Argerich Piano Works by The Early Recordings: Scriabin and Mozart, Beethoven Stockhausen Prokofiev, Ravel Mosell Argerich £11.50 £14.95 Decca 481 2491 DG 479 5978 (2 CD) Also available from Decca and DG Decca 478 8964 Arias The second album from soprano Pumeza Matshikiza £11.50 DG 481 2524 The Janoska Style Album from the Janoska Ensemble inc Paganini, Sarasate, Kreisler etc £11.50 DG 482 2952 Berliner Philharmoniker Great Syms - Beethoven, Bruckner, Mahler, Dvorak etc 8CD due 13/5 £18.50 DG 479 5977 Beethoven Symphonies 1-9 (all on one blu-ray audio disc) BPO;Karajan £19.95 DG 479 6218 Battaglie e Lamenti Savall's 1982 album for Archiv re-issued with Archiv catalogue due 13/5 £5.95 Decca 478 8210 Opera Gold 100 Great Arias - Pavarotti, Kaufmann, Fleming, Horne, Freni etc 6CD due 13/5 £18.50 DG 482 3849 L'Art de Maurice Gendron Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Lalo, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi etc 14CD £57.95 Decca Sound 55 Great Vocal Recitals £84.95 55CD Decca 478 9679 Limited Edition This box set puts the spotlight on fifty-five unique voices whose music and art shaped the century.

    Guillaume Du Fay Discography Compiled by Jerome F. Weber This discography of Guillaume Du Fay (Dufay) builds on the work published in Fanfare in January and March 1980. There are more than three times as many entries in the updated version. It has been published in recognition of the publication of Guillaume Du Fay, his Life and Works by Alejandro Enrique Planchart (Cambridge, 2018) and the forthcoming two-volume Du Fay’s Legacy in Chant across Five Centuries: Recollecting the Virgin Mary in Music in Northwest Europe by Barbara Haggh-Huglo, as well as the new Opera Omnia edited by Planchart (Santa Barbara, Marisol Press, 2008–14). Works are identified following Planchart’s Opera Omnia for the most part. Listings are alphabetical by title in parts III and IV; complete Masses are chronological and Mass movements are schematic. They are grouped as follows: I. Masses II. Mass Movements and Propers III. Other Sacred Works IV. Songs (Italian, French) Secular works are identified as rondeau (r), ballade (b) and virelai (v). Dubious or unauthentic works are italicised. The recordings of each work are arranged chronologically, citing conductor, ensemble, date of recording if known, and timing if available; then the format of the recording (78, 45, LP, LP quad, MC, CD, SACD), the label, and the issue number(s). Each recorded performance is indicated, if known, as: with instruments, no instruments (n/i), or instrumental only.

Dear Customer, As summer gives way to autumn (for those of us in the northern hemisphere at least), the record labels start rolling out their big guns in the run-up to the festive season. This year is no exception, with some notable high-profile issues: the complete Tchaikovsky Project from the Czech Philharmonic under Semyon Bychkov, and Richard Strauss tone poems from Chailly in Lucerne (both on Decca); the Beethoven Piano Concertos from Jan Lisiecki, and Mozart Piano Trios from Barenboim (both on DG). The independent labels, too, have some particularly strong releases this month, with Chandos discs including Bartók's Bluebeard’s Castle from Edward Gardner in Bergen, and the keenly awaited second volume of British tone poems under Rumon Gamba. Meanwhile Hyperion bring out another volume (no.79!) of their Romantic Piano Concerto series, more Machaut from the wonderful Orlando Consort (see our cover picture), and Brahms songs from soprano Harriet Burns. Another Hyperion Brahms release features as our 'Disc of the Month': the Violin Sonatas in a superb new recording from star team Alina Ibragimova and Cédric Tiberghien (see below).

  • The National Norwegian Artistic Research Fellowships Programme
    The National Norwegian Artistic Research Fellowships Programme Critical Reflection Candidate: Jostein Gundersen Project: Improvisation. Diminutions from 1350 ad. to 1700 ad. May, 2009 1. Synopsis/Short description In the revised project description, I stated that the subject of the fellowship was the practice of improvising diminutions in the period from about 1350 to about 1700. The objective of the project was to become able to improvise diminutions in three historical styles, as reflected through three historical documents: The manuscript Codex Faenza1 (ca1420), Sylvestro Ganassi´s Opera Intitulata Fontegara2 (1535) and Christopher Simpson´s The Division-Viol (1659/65).3 By and large, this corresponds to the outcome of my research period. The most important deviation from this course has been the emphasis on Codex Faenza, on the cost of the attention given to the two other sources, especially The Division-Viol. (An account of these adjustment was given in the annual reports of 2006 and 2007.) This is also reflected in the final documentation (see below). 2. Personal artistic position/work in relation to chosen subject area nationally and internationally. Contributions to professional development of the subject area. 2.1 General remarks My project belongs to the field frequently referred to as historically informed performance practice. It is often identified with "early music" and sub-divided according to historical focus. There are, however, no clear criteria for this field so far as repertoire is concerned. The performers who place themselves within that tradition have in common that various kinds of historical information are used as basis for the interpretation of different parameters of the performance.

  • 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.

  • Celebrate a Medieval Christmas with the Boston Camerata
    Anne Azéma, Artistic Director Joel Cohen, Music Director Emeritus December 1, 2011 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Please contact Tim Alexander at [email protected] or 617-272-2092 for further information. "A Medieval Christmas," absent for many years from the Boston area, now returns for four performances this Christmas season in New England. Directed by Anne Azema, the performances are December 10 (8 pm) at Boston's Old West Church; December 11 (3:30 pm) at First Parish Church in Newbury; December 17 (8 pm) in Lexington's Hancock United Methodist Church; and December 20 (8 pm) at First Church of Cambridge. Union College in Schenectady has engaged the Camerata for an additional performance there on December 18. "Away with scholastic debate and with the coldness of rectitude: Let the light and awe from some of the most magnificent medieval pieces pour in, the energy of a young group of performers combined with the sheer fun of the seasonal feast," in the words of artistic director Anne Azema. "Enjoy these performances, which are drawn from a vast medieval trove that includes some of the most beautiful music ever produced in Europe." Audiences will hear magnificent medieval song and poetry from France, Provence, England, and Germany, performed by a virtuoso consort of voices and instruments. The Boston area is truly blessed to be the home of a world-famous early-music ensemble. The Boston Camerata began touring overseas in 1974, and in the summer of 2011 it reached new heights, with combined audiences for tours in France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, and Finland exceeding 15,000.

  • Pergolesi Giovanni Battista
    PERGOLESI GIOVANNI BATTISTA Compositore italiano (Iesi, Ancona, 4 I 1710 - Pozzuoli, Napoli, 17 III 1736) 1 Il bisnonno, F. Draghi, si era trasferito, intorno al 1635, da Pergola a Iesi. Il suo primogenito, Cruciano, sposò una donna di Iesi. Dall'ora la famiglia si chiamò Pergolesi e con questo nome anche Giovanni Battista Pergolesi firma, per esempio, il frontespizio dello Stabat Mater ed il Laudate pueri; perciò la grafia Pergolesi deve considerarsi autentica. Fin da fanciullo fu di gracile costituzione e soffrì ad una gamba. I suoi fratelli morirono giovani. Il ragazzo godette la protezione della piccola nobiltà di Iesi, ricevette il primo insegnamento di violino da F. Mondini, proveniente da Bologna e direttore della cappella comunale di Iesi, mentre il direttore della cappella del duomo, F. Santi, gli insegnò il contrappunto. A Iesi, come hanno accertato gli storici musicali locali, erano frequenti le esecuzioni pubbliche di drammi e di intermezzi, nel palazzo municipale, e probabilmente il giovane Pergolesi vi poté ascoltare musiche di A. Scarlatti e di A. Caldara. Secondo G. Santini, sarebbe stato il marchese Cardolo Maria Pianetti a mandare a Napoli il ragazzo per completarne l'istruzione. Studiò comunque nel conservatorio dei Poveri di Gesù Cristo (lo si ritrova sotto il nome di "Iesi" nelle liste, del resto lacunose, a partire dal 1725) ed entrò nella classe di violino diretta da D. De Matteis. Ma il suo talento si rivelò più rapidamente nella classe di composizione di G. Greco (fino al 1728) e poi di F. Durante, mentre la sua più vasta cerchia d'interessi si estendeva a F.

  • Program Notes Machaut
    ABOUT THE MACHAUT MASS by Anne Azéma Program and Production Notes for the upcoming March 29 and March 30 performances Amherst and Cambridge, Ma. The present production of the epoch-making “Messe de Notre Dame” by Guillaume de Machaut (c.1300–77) was the result of a 2011 commission to The Boston Camerata by the Reims Music Festival. The mission confided to us then was to reconsider and reconceive Machaut’s masterpiece, the earliest known polyphonic setting of the mass Ordinary from the hand of a single composer, in honor of the 800th anniversary of the glorious Reims Cathedral. That is the place where Canon Machaut’s music was almost certainly first performed. These 2013 performances in Amherst and Cambridge mark the North American première of that Reims production, a significant milestone both in the history of the Cathedral and of our ensemble. As it is with history’s appreciation of the Reims cathedral itself—a building successively neglected, adored, altered, partially destroyed, rebuilt and restored—our views of medieval musical art in general and of Machaut’s achievement in particular have changed and evolved greatly over the generations. During the Enlightenment and into the earlier nineteenth century, medieval music (or what little was known of it) was generally considered to be crude and primitive. Ever since the earliest transcriptions of medieval polyphony by later nineteenth-century musical paleographers began to circulate, a reappraisal began, and in Machaut’s case appreciation for his musical art has never ceased to grow and progress. His place as one of the greatest composers in music history is now virtually unchallenged, and even his prolific literary output, for so long relegated to the second rank, is now undergoing positive reevaluation.
