  • MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings of the Year 2019
    MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings Of The Year 2019 This is the seventeenth 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 2018-November 2019). The 128 selections have come from 27 members of the team and 65 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, one has received three nominations: An English Coronation on Signum Classics and ten have received two nominations: Gounod’s Faust on Bru Zane Matthias Goerne’s Schumann Lieder on Harmonia Mundi Prokofiev’s Romeo & Juliet choreographed by John Cranko on C Major Marx’s Herbstymphonie on CPO Weinberg symphonies on DG Shostakovich piano works on Hyperion Late Beethoven sonatas on Hyperion Korngold orchestral works on Chandos Coates orchestral works on Chandos Music connected to Leonardo da Vinci on Alpha Hyperion was this year’s leading label with nine nominations, just ahead of C Major with eight. MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE YEAR In this twelve month period, we published more than 2300 reviews. There is no easy or entirely satisfactory way of choosing one above all others as our Recording of the Year, but this year one recording in particular put itself forward as the obvious candidate. An English Coronation 1902-1953 Simon Russell Beale, Rowan Pierce, Matthew Martin, Gabrieli Consort; Gabrieli Roar; Gabrieli Players; Chetham’s Symphonic Brass Ensemble/Paul McCreesh rec.

    “The Quartet’s immaculate musicianship shines like an illuminated manuscript” - The Independent "Mozart, Chopin and Bizet as you’ve never heard them before – classical music become theatre." - The Scotsman "Unveiling all the potential of their instruments, using their innate musical instincts, these Musicians perform in such a way that the heavens seem to open up before you." - Leidsch Dagblad "Love, hatred, irony, more philosophical feelings, all of these are mixed in Russian music, it’s very spiritual!" - The Independent All these quotes from the Russian and foreign press are dedicated to a single ensemble – St.Petersburg’s Terem Quartet. A pioneer ensemble, a trailblazer, the world’s first composer- ensemble, the Terem Quartet will celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2016! Much of what the Terem Quartet has accomplished over its 30-year history was never done before. The Terem Quartet was the first Russian ensemble, together with the PoKrovsKy Ensemble, to perform for a foreign audience at Peter Gabriel’s world-famous WOMAD festival. The Terem Quartet was the first Russian folK instrument ensemble to win the hearts of Russian Philharmonic halls. [email protected] The Terem Quartet was the first ensemble bacK in the 1980s that tried to combine what seemed at that time unimaginable – academic music, folK and rocK, thus creating its own “Folk-RocK-Fantasy”. The Terem Quartet became the first ensemble to combine music on folK instruments with symphonic music through its ambitious “MasKed Ball” program with a symphonic orchestra. Artists Management The Terem Quartet was a pioneer of the Russian crossover-style: a style born at the intersection of unique crossroads of the times.

    l mes de julio trae cada año a Cantabria un nuevo Encuentro de Música y Academia. Son ya 17 las ediciones que cumple una iniciativa que ha convertido la excelencia en su sello Ede garantía al servicio de la formación y la difusión musical. Del 1 al 27 de julio, las aulas del Conservatorio Jesús de Monasterio volverán a acoger a los grandes maestros del panorama internacional para ofrecer un intercambio único a los jóvenes talentos de las doce escuelas europeas más prestigiosas. Un encuentro entre la experiencia de grandísimos artistas consagrados y el entusiasmo y el potencial de las nuevas figuras llamadas a triunfar en los escenarios del futuro. Y junto a la academia, la difusión musical más allá de las aulas para acercar a los cántabros momentos inolvidables en medio centenar de conciertos que llegarán al Palacio de Festivales de Cantabria, al Palacio de La Magdalena y la iglesia de Santa Lucía, en Santander, pero también a otra veintena de localidades cántabras, como Torrelavega, Comillas, Santillana del Mar o Laredo. Tenemos por delante un mes para disfrutar de la Música con mayúsculas, desde el concierto inaugural a cargo de la Orquesta Sinfónica Freixenet, dirigida por el maestro Csaba, a los homenajes al pianista Bashkirov y al maestro Rostropovich, pasando por el concierto extraordinario para familias, que acercará la música de Stravinsky al público de todas las edades. Sobran razones y argumentos para sumarse un año más al Encuentro y estoy seguro de que los cántabros y los muchos visitantes que se encuentran entre nosotros en estas fechas estivales sabrán disfrutarlo y valorarlo como merece.

  • Steven Osborne
    Biography Steven Osborne “Some pianists gild everything they touch with their own personality; some are like chameleons, finding a new colour for each composer. Last night at St John’s Smith Square, the wonderful Scottish pianist Steven Osborne did both, which lent the whole evening a miraculous air.” The Daily Telegraph, 8 February 2016 Winner of the Royal Philharmonic Society’s 2013 Instrumentalist of the Year, pianist Steven Osborne is one of Britain’s most treasured musicians. Celebrated for his insightful interpretations, his musicality and technique make him sought after as soloist, chamber musician and recitalist. His residencies at London’s Wigmore Hall, Antwerp’s deSingel, the Bath International Music Festival and currently the CBSO are a testament to the breadth of his interests and the respect that he commands. Artist-in-Residence with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra from the beginning of the 2016/17 season, Steven Osborne opens with a pair of concerts featuring Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1 under Edward Gardner and Messiaen’s Quartet for the end of time performed with members of the Orchestra. Later in the season he will perform Piano Concertos by Britten, Rachmaninov and Tippett. Further orchestral engagements this season include concertos ranging from Brahms and de Falla, to Gershwin, Prokofiev and Ravel, with performances in the UK, Ireland, Europe, Japan and in the USA. His collaborators include the Royal Flemish Philharmonic and Jun Märkl; the Oregon Symphony and Carlos Calmar; the Dresden Philharmonic and Michael Francis; the Hallé and Louis Langrée; the Oslo Philharmonic and Juanjo Mena; the St Louis Symphony and Stéphane Denève; the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra and Martyn Brabbins; and the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Sakari Oramo.
