| |  | Dohnányi & Penderecki: Sextets
Ensemble Kheops: Muhiddin Dürrüoglu (piano), Graf Mourja (violin), Lise Berthaud (viola), Marie Hallynck (cello), Ronald Van Spaendonck (clarinet) & Hervé Joulain (horn) A great team of soloists united by their love for chamber music, two masterpieces in the rare repertoire of sextets for piano, wind and strings: this is a regal menu. Dohnanyi has place of honour: giant of Hungarian culture, emulator of Brahms, contemporary of Bartók and one of the great victims of his country’s historical upheavals. His fascinating Sextet illustrates the quality, creativity and vitality of his writing. Penderecki also composed a sextet for the same instruments at the end of last century. Ever since its premiere at the Musikverein in Vienna, this work has imposed itself as a cornerstone in the catalogue of the great Polish master. “A really meaty coupling, this...As for the Ensemble Kheops, no praise could be too high: unbelievably, they sound as if they were born to play both works. They're not only technically superb but wholly convincing interpreters, and the crystal-clear recorded sound matches their playing in its excellence.” Gramophone Magazine, January 2012 | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days.

| |  | Shostakovich - Krokodil
“The two Russian singers deliver very expressive accounts of the vocal works, Nadja Smirnov in particular effecting a beautiful lyricism in the Blok cycle. Of the two extended instrumental works, the performance of the Violin Sonata by Graf Mourja and Schoonderwoerd is especially convincing. The Second Piano Trio also receives a thoughtful rendition, with a surprising lightness of touch in the scherzo and a strongly delineated Passacaglia...” BBC Music Magazine, September 2004 **** | | | (also available to download from $21.00) | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days.

| |  | Poulenc: Complete Chamber Music, Vol. 2
“The first volume in this series of Poulenac's chamber music was a bit of a mixed bag. ...there are wonderfully spiky moments from Graf Mourja in the Stravinskian Violin Sonata, and Ronald Van Spaendonck's control of the haunting slow movement of the Clarinet Sonata is mesmerising.” BBC Music Magazine | | | (also available to download from $6.00) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
