This disc of studio recordings made between 1956 and 1960 features one of the greatest and distinguished contemporary classical guitarists: Julian Bream. It seems extraordinary but the discography of his youth has only been partially re-mastered on CD. This recording features genuine rarities including the Lennox Berkeley Sonatina. “The concentration and energy of Bach's Chaconne triumph over antique sound, and the offbeat repertoire maintains its grip. This is the playing of a master.” BBC Music Magazine, July 2011 ***** | |

| |  | Bach - Cantatas for the Liturgical Year Volume 12
These interpretations are becoming more and more established. “A rare treat, Kuijken – and Bach – at their very best” BBC Music Magazine. This volume contains cantatas for the 15th to 18th Sundays after Trinity. “The choral blend of the four voices is excellent...This is some of the best of Bach, excellently recorded in surround-sound” BBC Music Magazine, July 2011 **** “Petra Noskaiová sings with authority, conviction and a good mastery of Baroque trills...Kuijken's tiny band of four violins, vola and basse de violon suits this intimate but dramatic piece ['Gute Nacht' BWV27] and Jan Van der Crabben sings it most affectingly.” International Record Review, April 2011 | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.

This historic Munich Radio recording was made in 1960. “Jochum's conducting of this work is utterly involving, his feeling for long-term musical direction palpable from the first moments of the great opening chorus. This is big-band, big-choir Bach, but when it has as strong a sense of the spiritual as this performance the results are emotionally involving and moving. Pears and Hotter are both noble and eloquent” International Record Review, May 2011 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

This intriguing work introduces the notes B A C H in the last movement. Sadly, this recording in 2007 brought the work of this legendary ensemble to a close. The recording was made in a light, modern building and Bach’s timeless music enters into a two-way dialogue with a fascinating light and shadow effect by day and night. Every movement has an optically individual image. “you might think...that a performance of Bach's work would not make for the best viewing on video. Yet being able to see a performance can heighten the musical experience - as here, where the players' gestures often clarify the music's structure and texture...In turn, sheer contrapuntal wizardry begins to spill over from cerebral into emotional appreciation.” BBC Music Magazine, September 2011 ***** | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

| |  | JS Bach: Violin Concertos
Elfa Run Kristinsdottir (violin) Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop The Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop, founded in 2006, is a young, Berlin-based chamber orchestra on a mission to transform the traditional experience of concert-going. In collaboration with artists from many different fields, the ensemble searches for new forms of presentation and performance, including music theater and "concert installations". The core of the ensemble is a string orchestra of 15 players that can split up into smaller chamber groups or be joined by guest musicians, depending on the demands of the program. The repertoire, which stretches from the early Baroque to contemporary music, requires all members of the ensemble to perform in chamber music settings as well as solistically This new recording presents two Violin Concertos and the Double Concerto BMV 1043 by Johann Sebastian Bach. The solo violin part is played by concertmaster Elfa Rún Kristinsdóttir, also a regular guest of the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin. | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days.
