Rachel Podger - Mozart & Haydn Concertos

Rachel Podger - Mozart & Haydn Concertos


Haydn:

Violin Concerto No. 1 in C major, Hob.VIIa:1

Violin Concerto No. 4 in G major, Hob.VIIa:4

Mozart:

Sinfonia Concertante for Violin, Viola & Orchestra in E flat major, K364

with Pavlo Beznosiuk (viola)


Rachel Podger’s first recording with orchestra since the landmark Gramophone Award winning disc of Vivaldi’s La Stravaganza.

Follows eight volumes of the Award Winning Mozart Violin Sonatas edition.

Rachel Podger challenges Pavlo Beznosiuk.

Soloists play on real ‘Strads’.

“Podger makes a strong case for Haydn's concertos… the sound has a warm glow that enhances her standpoint that these works are not lightweight nonentities. Slow movements are particularly profound…” Gramophone Magazine, December 2009

“…Rachel Podger…silvery-toned, subtly nuanced 1739 Pesarinius violin and intent direction of the strings of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment find a genuine eloquence in the Adagio of the otherwise unremarkable G major Concerto. Mozart's Sinfonia Concertante is... a masterpiece unique even in his output for the almost operatic interplay between its solo violin and viola protagonists... Podger's almost 'speaking' line contrasts with the more 'masculine' tones of Pavlo Beznosiuk. Others have wrung even more pathos from the somber Andante, but this scarcely alloys the warmth and life of the reading.” BBC Music Magazine, Christmas 2009 ****

“...the OAE accompanies with poise and discretion, allowing Podger's consummate talent to shine through.” The Observer, 29th November 2009

Haydn: String Quartets, Op. 33 Nos. 1-6 (complete)

Haydn: String Quartets, Op. 33 Nos. 1-6 (complete)


The six String Quartets Op.33, though known as the 'Russian' in reference to their dedicatee the Grand Duke of Russia and future Tsar Paul I, in fact have much more in common with Austrian folk music and comic opera. Almost ten years after the extreme intensity of his Op.20, Haydn shows his wit and good humour in these works featuring scherzos, written 'in a new and special way'.

"the best quartet to have come out of Spain for many a year" The Strad

“…a vivacious and technically superb outfit…” BBC Music Magazine, November 2009 ***

“These quartets, written in "a new and special way", are played… in a style not heard from established groups, vindicating scholar David Schroeder's belief that "new and special" also represented "new possibilities for the relationship of the four performers". The relationship here is one of compact, razor-edged cohesion...” Gramophone Magazine, November 2009

“they richly repay performances as inventive and witty as these ones by the excellent Cuarteto Casals. The group’s rhythmic vitality and dynamic range are a constant pleasure… this set represents an exciting issue.” Sunday Times

Haydn - Violin Concerto & Symphonies Nos. 49 & 80

Haydn - Violin Concerto & Symphonies Nos. 49 & 80


Haydn:

Violin Concerto No. 1 in C major, Hob.VIIa:1

Symphony No. 49 in F minor 'La Passione'

Symphony No. 80 in D minor


The musicians of the Freiburger Barockorchester chose to highlight the craggiest 'Sturm und Drang' side of the composer in August 2008 when they recorded this symphony known as 'La Passione'. Composed in the deliberately chosen key of F minor, the work bathes in an intensely emotional atmosphere entirely characteristic of this pre-Romantic movement which came shortly before the arrival of the classical style. It is coupled here with Violin concerto No. 1 and Symphony No. 80, two calmer pieces which enable listeners to return to terra firma.

“…the first recording on period instruments of Symphony No 80. The Freiburgers are alive to this curious work's contradictions: the vehemence of the Sturm und Drang opening, giving way to the lopsided Ländler of the second subject…” Gramophone Magazine, Awards Issue 2009

“Bernstein held it all together with maximum expressive power and spirit of contemplation. A great, moving occasion.” Abendzeitung (Munich) [concert review]

“The Creation gives us time to remember – and rejoice in – the purity and grace and fortitude of Nature, to restore our souls, to recover our moral strength, and to rediscover our power to praise” (Leonard Bernstein)
