Boris TCHAIKOVSKY (1925–1996) Piano Trio 1 Cello Sonata 2 • Solo Cello Suite Christopher Marwood, Cello Haik Kazazyan, Violin 1 • Olga Solovieva, Piano 1,2

Boris Tchaikovsky stands out as one of the most original composers of the post- Shostakovich generation. The three works presented here helped establish his early reputation for expressive lyricism and strong rhythms that embrace the deep-rooted traditions of his teachers Miaskovsky, Shebalin and Shostakovich. The elegant and emotionally searching Piano Trio is considered by some to be a kind of self-portrait. The Cello Sonata and Solo Cello Suite were both written for Mstislav Rostropovich who declared, ‘I consider him to be a genius, whose contribution to the cello repertoire has yet to be sufficiently appreciated.’

Key Features: ● Naxos has been championing the music of Boris Tchaikovsky for a while now, with releases including orchestral works such as the First Symphony (8.570195) which “makes for compelling listening” (MusicWeb International), and the stunning Piano and Clarinet Concertos (8.557727). 8.573783 Playing Time: ● Award-winning pianist Olga Solovieva is also a strong advocate for Boris Price Code: 61:05 Tchaikovsky’s chamber works, having NXP 7 47313 37837 1 already recorded solo and chamber works on the Grand Piano label (GP716), as well as the remarkable Piano Quintet (Naxos Companion Titles – Boris Tchaikovsky, Composer 8.573207), in which “there’s no lack of precision, tension, or involvement; and Olga Solovieva… is a powerful, almost elemental, presence.” (Fanfare).

In his writing for strings, Stephen Dodgson revealed an abiding love of early music through his perceptive use of ornamentation, virtuoso displays and enthusiasm for variation form. Both String Trios reflect these elements and their slow movements – hymnal in the earlier work, valedictory in the later – are especially beautiful. The Sonatina in B minor for solo violin is simultaneously a tribute to Bach and a statement of Dodgson’s own musical identity, while the very different Caprice after Puck offers a complex exploration of the hobgoblin’s sinister pranks.

World Premiere Recordings Franz SCHUBERT (1797–1828) Schwanengesang Johannes BRAHMS (1833–1897) Acht Ziguenerlieder Arranged for French horn and piano Tim Thorpe, French horn • Christopher Williams, Piano

Both of the song cycles recorded here combine lyricism with powerful storytelling, covering a wide range of emotions that are well suited to the beautiful sonorities and vocal nature of the French horn. Schubert’s late Schwanengesang conveys its pastoral setting, messages of love, pain of separation and haunted loss so descriptively that the music is just as effective without words. Brahms arranged his Zigeunerlieder or Gypsy Songs from vocal quartets, their Hungarian folk music character lending themselves superbly to further transcription.

Key Features: ● Arranging songs for French horn and piano may seem like an unusual project, but Tim Thorpe follows in a long tradition of creating new instrumental music from vocal repertoire, and in transcribing Schubert’s Schwanengesang and Brahms’s Zigeunerlieder he has managed to step away from the well-trodden paths of core repertoire to explore new opportunities that prove highly effective in practice, opening 8.573815 Playing Time: new avenues for players and audiences alike.

Italian Clarinet Treasures BUSONI • GAGLIANO • PILATI • GABUCCI SINIGAGLIA • LABATE • RIETI Sergio Bosi, Clarinet • Riccardo Bartoli, Piano

Circumstances including an overwhelming preoccupation with opera at the expense of instrumental music, two world wars and the rise of a Fascist dictatorship, resulted in a generation of Italian chamber music composers born between the 1880s and early 1900s whose music seemed to vanish without trace. Featured on this release, they include virtuoso composer-performers, such as Ferdinando Busoni, father of Ferruccio, renowned pedagogues, and composers persecuted for their Jewish origins. This is Sergio Bosi’s fifth album for Naxos in a series devoted to restoring to the repertoire forgotten and rarely-performed Italian clarinet works from the second half of the 19th century to the present day.

Key Features: ● Sergio Bosi is an acclaimed specialist in Italian music, and part of his campaign to restore forgotten clarinet repertoire into the public domain has already resulted in numerous Naxos CDs. ‘Italian Clarinet Suites’ (8.572399) was critically acclaimed with comments such as: “the playing of Sergio Bosi is exemplary, always sympathetic to the writing, unfazed by any of the technical 8.579034 Playing Time: demands and capable of real wit and panache; his accompanist, Price Code: 60:48 Riccardo Bartoli is excellent…” (MusicWeb International), “highly recommended” (The Clarinet). NXC 7 47313 90347 4 ● Sergio Bosi and Riccardo Bartoli have also recorded works by Aurelio Magnani (8.572890): “The music on this disc ranges from Companion Titles – Sergio Bosi, Clarinet charming to truly beautiful, and all of it is a pleasure to hear.” (The Clarinet), a further album of ‘Italian Clarinet Gems’ (8.572690): “The overall tone of this delightful recital is one of serenity: this is music certain to have very wide appeal.” (MusicWeb International), and ‘20th Century Italian Clarinet Solos’ (8.573090), in which “the inherent beauty of the instrument’s dynamic range, though contained, speaks for itself.

Louis SPOHR (1784–1859) Violin Duets, Vol. 1 Jameson Cooper and James Dickenson, Violins

One of the giants of music-making in the 19th century, Louis Spohr excelled as a composer, violin virtuoso, conductor and teacher. His concertos for the violin (Nos. 6, 8 and 11 can be heard on 8.570528 and the world premiere recordings of Nos. 7 and 12 on 8.555101) demonstrate a Romantic temperament framed in a Classical style, but he was equally adept in smaller forms. The Duets for Two Violins, Op. 67 reveal a perfect sense of architecture, the two instruments frequently exchanging roles, as well as a majestic command of melody. The Duet, WoO 21, written when Spohr was just 12 years old, is one of his earliest surviving compositions.

Key Features: ● Spohr was a great figure in the history of violin development. He also invented the chin rest and wrote a lastingly important treatise for the instrument as well as a very entertaining autobiography. ● Naxos’ Spohr Violin Concertos series should be promoted – see 8.570528 which contains Nos. 6, 8 and 11 (No. 8 is his most famous) about which Fanfare wrote that it: “stands out for its version of the once famous Gesangszene (No. 8), as it’s often called, perhaps the best after Heifetz’s – and, with Lamsma’s personal approach, a creditable alternative.” 8.573763 Playing Time: ● The multi-faceted performer and teacher, Jameson Cooper, Price Code: 67:32 was Born in Sheffield, England. As a founding member of the NXP 7 47313 37637 7 Euclid Quartet, Cooper has won numerous competition prizes and performed to high acclaim throughout the US, in ensembles and as soloist. He is the dedicatee of several new works and has Companion Titles – Louis Spohr, Composer performed many premieres.

Includes World Premiere Recordings Olivier MESSIAEN (1908–1992) Livre d’orgue Tom Winpenny, Organ

Ten years after writing Les Corps glorieux (8.573682) Olivier Messiaen developed a plan to compose a Book of Rhythmic Studies for the organ. This resulted in two distinct works of which Livre d’orgue proved to be an anthology representative of his compositional thinking at the time. It runs the gamut of rhythms, tone colours and sonorities, ranging from extreme delicacy to the most powerful vehemence, and includes new modes, complex Hindu rhythms, and an aviary of birdsong. The test piece Verset pour la fête de la Dédicace offers a more serene vision in its own essay in birdsong.

Key Features: ● Tom Winpenny has embarked on a sequence of Messiaen’s organ music and has already recorded Messiaen’s La Nativité du Seigneur (The Birth of the Saviour) on 8.573332. Of this disc BBC Music Magazine wrote: “Winpenny plays with impressive precision and clarity. Each detail of the scintillating toccata of ‘Dieu parmi nous’ can be readily heard, even where Messiaen’s music deliberately obscures the texture. Both the playing and the © Colin Innes-Hopkins recorded sound are technically impressive.” ● Recently he has added Messiaen’s Les Corps Glorieux (released 6/2017 on 8.573845 Playing Time: 8.573682 and American Record Guide wrote about this: “Winpenny again gives Price Code: 57:29 wonderful performances playing on a marvelous 2014 Siefert organ in Hildesheim Cathedral, perfect for these pieces.” NXP 7 47313 38457 0 ● Winpenny has recorded quite extensively for Naxos and his other discs of twentieth- century music are ripe to be promoted – Judith Bingham, John Rutter, Malcolm Companion Titles – Tom Winpenny, Organ Williamson and William Mathias.

Antonio SOLER (1729–1783) Keyboard Sonatas Nos. 75–86 Soo-Jung Ann, Piano

For the last 25 years of his life Antonio Soler occupied the distinguished positions of maestro di capilla and organist at the Escorial palace. He wrote around 150 keyboard sonatas, which remain his best-known achievement, a body of music that reveals the subtle influence of Domenico Scarlatti on the Catalan composer, as well as prevailing Viennese trends. Volume eight of the complete sonatas shows Soler’s cultivation of expressive melancholy in No. 77 in F sharp minor, a virtuosic use of the full range of the keyboard in No. 85 in F sharp minor and characteristically vibrant Spanish motifs in No. 86 in D major.

Key Features: ● Pianist Soo-Jung Ann won the First Prize at the 58th Maria Canals International Piano Competition in Barcelona in 2012. In 2013 she became the first woman to win the International Telekom Beethoven Competition, Bonn. ● This is the eight volume in the cycle. Vol. 4 (8.573281), performed

by Mateusz Borowiak, received a 10/10 score from ClassicsToday. © Dan Hannen com: “While his playing is sensitive and stylish with regard to ornaments and phrasing, Borowiak is not afraid to exploit the modern concert 8.573863 Playing Time: grand’s dynamic range and potential for tone color.” Price Code: 78:50 ● This is Naxos’s second Soler cycle – Gilbert Rowland recorded them back in the NXP 7 47313 38637 6 1990s. Each volume in this new series is performed by a different pianist, which gives a different perspective on the sonatas. ● All performances are on the piano – not harpsichord – which differentiates these Companion Titles – Soler Complete Keyboard discs from historically informed performances on original instruments. Sonatas series ● Soler’s sonatas should be seen in the same light as those of Domenico Scarlatti, whose sonatas are also being recorded by Naxos – the ongoing Scarlatti cycle can certainly be promoted alongside this one.

Alexander Panfilov Piano Laureate Recital Winner, 2016 Jaén Prize International Piano Competition DEBUSSY • SECO DE ARPE • MUSSORGSKY • ALBÉNIZ

Debussy’s richly evocative Estampes takes us through exotic gamelan-like sonorities from East Asia and the strumming guitars of Spain, to end amid the bracing excitement of a violent rainstorm in Normandy. Alexander Panfilov was a laureate at the Premio Jaén competition in 2016, at which Manuel Seco de Arpe’s elegantly constructed and complex Anamorfosis was the mandatory work. He concludes this recital with Mussorgsky’s supremely descriptive Pictures at an Exhibition, one of the great works of the Russian piano tradition.

Key Features: ● Naxos is proud to present brilliant young pianist Alexander Panfilov’s debut album in a release that showcases not only his stupendous Russian-school virtuosity in Mussorgsky’s ever popular Pictures at an Exhibition and his remarkable technical prowess in the competition test-piece Anamorfosis by Spanish composer Manuel Seco de Arpe, but also represents this multifaceted artist’s poetic touch in Debussy’s impressionist masterpiece Estampes. ● Alexander Panfilov is laureate and 1st prize winner of numerous international piano competitions, including the Rina Sala Gallo (2016), Premio Jaén (2016), Hastings Piano Concerto Competition (2015), Premio Accademia Romana (2015), James 8.573846 Playing Time: Mottram (2014), Taranto (2013), Brant (2013), and most recently 2nd prize at the Price Code: 61:58 first Harbin International Music Competition.

Sergey RACHMANINOV (1873–1943) Great Pianists – Solo Piano Recordings, Vol. 5 Final Edison and First Victor Recordings, 1919–1923 DAQUIN • MENDELSSOHN • CHOPIN • TCHAIKOVSKY • DEBUSSY • RACHMANINOV

Sergey Rachmaninov moved to America in 1918 and immediately began giving concerts to raise funds for his new life outside Russia. Thomas Edison was the first to entice him into the recording studio, and the compositions captured here complete his work for Edison, the rest of which can be found on volume 4 (8.111407). In 1920 Rachmaninov moved to the Victor company, and these first recordings, made with the acoustical process, reveal the perfectionist composer-pianist at his fascinating best.

Key Features: ● Previous releases in this historical edition have received universal praise. Vol. 1 (8.112020) was considered “a superb first volume in what promises to be an invaluable series” by Gramophone. Vol. 2 (8.112058) is “an amazing tribute to a towering talent as well as a wonderful job performed by Ward Marston as audio restoration engineer” according to MusicWeb International, and Classical Recordings Quarterly also admired Vol. 3 (8.111397): Not only does this disc present one of the summits of pianism on record; but the transfers are excellent,” the same volume summed up by Gramophone as “playing beyond price.” Vol. 4 (8.11407) is a Gramophone Choice: 8.111408 Playing Time: “Rachmaninov’s pianism is utterly and undeniably compelling.” Price Code: 78:37 ● As with Vol. 4, this collection includes takes from the Edison sessions not approved NXC 7 47313 34082 8 by Rachmaninov for commercial release, but each having their own qualities and insights. Booklet notes by Jonathan Summers provide valuable insights into the background to these sessions, and further details on Rachmaninov’s interpretative Companion Titles – Rachmaninov Solo choices.

The Story of My Life, Volume 2 By Giacomo Casanova Unabridged Read by Peter Wickham 9 781781 981467

The Story of My Life is the explosive and exhilarating autobiography by the infamous libertine Giacomo Casanova. Intense and scandalous, Casanova’s extraordinary adventures take the listener on an incredible voyage across 18th-century Europe – from France to Russia, Poland to Spain and Turkey to Germany, with Venice at their heart. He falls madly in love, has wild flings and delirious orgies, and encounters some of the most brilliant figures of his time, including Catherine the Great, Louis XV and Benjamin Franklin. He holds a verbal duel with Voltaire, a pistol duel with a Polish noble, and finds himself hauled before the court multiple times, including in London, where the judge in question turns out to be none other than Henry Fielding. His appetite for life is voracious; for him, a life lived close to the precipice is the only life worth living. The book is divided into six sections. Volume 2 contains the third and fourth sections: ‘3: The Eternal Quest’ and ‘4: Adventures in the South’.

Great Victorians By David Angus Unabridged Read by Benjamin Soames 9 781781 980989

The Victorian era was a time of great change and rapid progress. Britain was undergoing the most tremendous development. Scientific discoveries had prompted the Industrial Revolution, which made Britain the world leader in iron and steel production. Science was undergoing a revolution, enabled by the groundbreaking work of Michael Faraday, who led the Royal Institution. Great swathes of Central Africa were mapped by the explorer David Livingstone and the understanding of humankind’s place in the world was being redefined by the theories of the great naturalist Charles Darwin. Brunel’s steam-driven ships were connecting continents and Florence Nightingale’s work in hospitals helped lay the foundations for modern nursing. In literature, Charles Dickens put the lives of ordinary men and women at the centre of great novels for the first time, and in politics Britain was completely transformed by the reforms of William Gladstone. Written exclusively for Naxos AudioBooks, Great Victorians captures a fascinating period in world history.

Nana By Émile Zola Unabridged Read by Leighton Pugh 9 781781 981481

Nana Coupeau is a beautiful woman, able to attract men of enormous wealth with the crook of her finger. Part-time prostitute, part-time actress, she makes her debut in a mediocre operetta The Blonde Venus at the bustling Paris World’s Fair of 1867. She can’t sing, act or dance, yet she is stunning. Nana soon rockets through elite Parisian society, and, blinded by desire, men crawl to her feet, yielding to her every demand. Affections are manipulated, hearts are broken; fortunes are gutted and inheritances squandered. The poverty and violence of Nana’s upbringing have led her to a cold and profligate life – a metaphoric indictment of the excesses of France’s Second Empire, and a striking example of Zola’s Naturalism.

The Book of Disquiet By Fernando Pessoa Unabridged Read by Adam Sims 9 781781 981429

Assembled from notes and jottings left unpublished at the time of the author’s death, The Book of Disquiet is a collection of aphoristic prose-poetry musings on dreams, solitude, time and memory. Credited to Pessoa’s alter ego, Bernardo Soares, who chronicles his contemplations in this so-called ‘factless’ autobiography, the work is a journey of one man’s soul and, by extension, of all human souls that allow their minds and hearts to roam far and free. Though his outward life as an assistant bookkeeper in downtown Lisbon is a humdrum affair, Soares lives a rich and varied existence within the contours of his own mind, where he can be and do anything. Soares has no ambition, nor has he any friends; he is plagued with disquiet, and only imagination and dreams can conquer it. Compiled by the translator Richard Zenith, Fernando Pessoa’s The Book of Disquiet is a fulgent tribute to the imagination of man.
