Dear Customer, Autumn is now upon us, one of our favourite times of year at Europadisc. Record labels tend to keep their biggest and best releases for the run up to Christmas, giving us plenty of wonderful music to explore and enjoy. Some of the more popular labels also start to crop up in special offers, resulting in us getting busier and able to enjoy a real buzz around the office. Plus we have the Gramophone Awards to look forward to - a real celebration of the best that the classical record industry has seen over the last 12 months or so. British music seems to have a strong showing amongst our priorities this month: Chandos in particular have come up trumps, with recordings of works by both Dame Ethel Smyth (see ‘Disc of the Month’ below) and Eric Coates; a world premiere from New Sussex Opera on Somm features Stanford’s final opera, ‘The Travelling Companion’; and there are two Vaughan Williams releases to highlight - Andrew Manze and the RLPO continue their series on Onyx with The Lark Ascending and other short works, and Albion offer us no fewer than 15 world premiere song recordings on a disc entitled ‘The Song of Love’. Piano music also features heavily, highlights including Rachmaninov from Daniil Trifonov (DG), the start of a new Beethoven Concerto cycle from Boris Giltburg (Naxos), and Igor Levit’s eagerly awaited Beethoven Sonata cycle (Sony). Other picks include Haydn from the London Haydn Quartet (Hyperion), operatic Mussorgsky from Kent Nagano (BIS), and the latest album from Jonas Kaufmann featuring Viennese favourites (Sony). And don’t miss the boxsets - there are mouth-watering collections of performances from the likes of Wilhelm Furtwangler, Pierre Monteux, Rudolf Firkusny, Jean-Francois Paillard (134CDs!), Ton Koopman and Maria Yudina, to name just a few. While we’re on the subject of boxsets, there are two other things to mention. One is that we are currently aware of three Complete Beethoven Boxset Editions due for release in November (from DG, Warner and Naxos). These will be available for pre-order very soon, and certainly be featured in our November catalogue. Secondly, you will find our usual Autumn Boxset Catalogue tucked in this month. We have around 2500 boxsets reduced in total, so only have room to print a selection, but please feel free to browse our website for details of all the others. These will remain available at the reduced prices until Christmas. Finally, a quick mention of our new special offers: Australian Eloquence are all now reduced until Christmas - details of single discs are printed this month and we will feature others in November; the superb catalogues of Signum, Avie and Alpha are all now available at discounted prices until the end of November; and we have a range of opera DVDs and Blu-rays from DG and Decca with up to 35% discount. Plenty to explore! Best regards from, The Europadisc Team DISC OF THE MONTH Dame Ethel Smyth £12.95 Mass in D, Overture to ‘The Wreckers’ or pay just Susanna Hurrell, Catriona Morison, Ben Johnson, Duncan Rock, £10.95 BBC Symphony Chorus and Orchestra, Sakari Oramo if your order value Chandos CHSA 5240 (Hybrid SACD - playable on standard equipment) exceeds £50* Ethel Smyth was one of England’s foremost Victorian composers, and a * to qualify for the special price, prominent suffragette. She was the first female composer to be honoured your order value must exceed a total of £50 excluding this with a Damehood. She studied composition with Carl Reinecke in Leipzig recording and before any applicable carriage charges. (alongside Dvořák, Grieg and Tchaikovsky) and then privately with Heinrich Offer available while stocks last. von Herzogenberg (who introduced her to Brahms and Clara Schumann). Her Mass in D is her only large-scale religious work, although it was certainly composed for the concert hall rather than the church. Scored for 4 soloists, choir, and orchestra, the Mass in D sets the usual six parts of the mass, but is performed with the Gloria at the end, not second, at the instruction of the composer. Her opera The Wreckers, set in mid-eighteenth-century Cornwall, is considered by some critics to be the ‘most important English opera composed during the period between Purcell and Britten’. The Overture sets the scene wonderfully, as well as introducing the main thematic material to follow. Sakari Oramo and his BBC forces are joined by an outstanding quartet of soloists for this surround sound recording. 2 PRIORITY NEW RELEASES DG and Decca Rachmaninov Jenkins Piano Concertos 1 & 3 Miserere: Songs of Mercy Trifonov, The Philadelphia and Redemption Orchestra, Nezet-Seguin Davies, Selaocoe, £12.50 Polyphony, Layton DG 483 6617 £12.50 due 11/10 Decca 481 8580 due 11/10 Encores Weinberg 30 tracks of piano music Piano Trio, Vln Son no.6, ranging from Purcell to 3 Pieces for violin & piano Rachmaninov Kremer, Avdeeva, Freire Dirvanauskaite £12.50 £12.50 Decca 485 0153 due 18/10 DG 483 7522 due 18/10 DG 483 6086 Tchaikovsky None But The Lonely Heart – Violin Concerto + song arrs due 18/10 Lozakovich £12.50 DG 483 7465 Voyager The Essential Max Richter 2CD Richter £16.95 Decca 481 8166 Einaudi Seven Days Walking (complete) 7CD Einaudi £56.95 DG 483 7459 John Williams Across the Stars: Deluxe Edition CD + DVD Mutter;Williams £16.95 DG 483 7441 Ode to Freedom Beethoven – Symphony no.9 CD + DVD Various Orchestras;Bernstein £16.95 Karl Jenkins reissues from Decca Beethoven £13.50 each due 11/10 481 7806 Stella Natalis Complete Symphonies 481 7763 The Peacemakers Wiener Philharmoniker, 481 7803 Gloria & Te Deum Andris Nelsons 481 7735 This Land of Ours £52.95 481 7811 Quirk – The Concertos 483 7071 (5CD + Blu-ray Audio) 481 7857 Stabat Mater 481 7732 Adiemus II – Cantata Mundi In 2020, the world will celebrate the 250th anniversary of 481 7862 Adiemus III – Dances of Our Time maybe the greatest composer of all time!

During the 1930s Firkušný achieved international fame as an interpreter of the core concerto, chamber and solo repertoire. His unique reputation today rests chiefly on his unequalled mastery in the piano music of his Czech compatriots Dvořák, Janáček and Martinů. Firkušný also recorded memorable interpretations of Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann and Chopin, as well as Samuel Barber and Howard Hanson. All of these stunning recordings are included in this must-have box set. Rudolf Firkušný taught at the prestigious Juilliard School and the Berkshire Music Centre.

But following this anniversary there is some sad news, with the recent passing of our President, Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon. Her energy, commitment and enthusiasm from the outset and throughout the evolution of the Festival have been fundamental to its success. The Duchess of Kent and I have seen the Festival grow from humble beginnings to an internationally renowned arts festival, having faced and overcome many obstacles along the way. Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon, can be justly proud of the Festival’s achievements. Her legacy must surely be a Festival that continues to flourish as we embark on the next forty years. www.newburyspringfestival.org.uk 1 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 2 Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon MBE Founder and President 1935 - 2019 2 box office 0845 5218 218 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 3 The Festival’s founder and president, Jeanie Countess of Carnarvon was a great and much loved lady who we will always remember for her inspirational support of Newbury Spring Festival and her gentle and gracious presence at so many events over the years.
