Elin Manahan Thomas, Roderick Williams, Ruth Massey & Mark Dobell The Sixteen & Academy of St Martin in the Fields, Harry Christophers Recorded at the 2007 Mostly Mozart Festival at London’s Barbican Hall, this disc reflects the unique live experience of a concert performance that captivated its audience. “…the singers of The Sixteen evoked an unearthly expressiveness. Fauré once said: ‘here it was as if we had stumbled upon some private memorial, and caught a haunting glimpse of paradise.’"

| |  | Complete Grieg EditionComplete Works of Edvard Grieg
Jorge Bolet, Håkon Austbø, Marianne Hirsti (soprano) Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields & Raphael Quartet Major Reissue, Partially Licensed From Decca
Brilliant Classics presents a unique 21 CD collection of the complete works of Norway’s most famous composer, Edvard Grieg. 2007 is the 100th anniversary of Grieg’s death and the immediate occasion for issuing this set. It features many works that are rarely performed.
The piano music is performed by Håkon Austbø, the recipient of the 2003 Grieg Award. This edition contains 7 CDs of his idiomatic performances. Another 7 feature Grieg’s orchestral, choral and chamber works. Performers include the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields and the Raphael Quartet. Jorge Bolet is the soloist in the famous piano concerto.
The final third of this Edition is dedicated to Grieg’s 170 beautiful songs which at the time were inspired and performed by his wife Nina. Grieg also had ample opportunity to incorporate his beloved folk music in these works. The singers include soprano Marianne Hirsti and tenor Kjell Magnus Sandve. They are accompanied by pianist Rudolf Jansen. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Celia Nicklin (oboe & cor anglais) & Michael Laird (trumpet) Academy of St Martin in the Fields, Sir Neville Marriner Recorded: Smith Square, London, October 1975 “Few anthologies find room for a symphony; but this one does, and in doing so offers us a very good one, Ives's Third: three gently affectionate movements (for once no jokes, no revolutions) ... it is music of great charm, and given exactly that quality in the continuously eloquent performance of Neville Marriner's Academy... there is also playing of the very first order in Barber's Adagio, with an intensity of string tone at the climax hardly to be believed possible with the number of players likely involved. The Copland is splendid too, trumpet and cor anglais exceptionally well balanced with each other - projecting their solos with a long-lined beauty matching that of the string players. Creston's A Rumour is in a sense a party piece for the orchestra... perhaps in this little piece Creston has produced the record's second triumph of good nature; hardly comparable in scope with the Ives, but an effective one nevertheless. Its performance and recording are of an equal standard to that of the whole disc: impeccable”. Gramophone July 1976 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
