When the complete Quintets by the Talich Quartet were released in the late 1990s, for the first time, these works - which in reality were performed in concert relatively infrequently and were not widely recorded - became accessible in all of their emotional power and stunning beauty. “These are magnificent performances, intimate, beautifully nuanced and captured in a warm, clear acoustic that suits the music very well.” International Record Review, September 2012 | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |

Pia Heise - a rare talent nurtured by world leading accompanist, Roger Vignoles, has her first CD released featuring a beautiful selection of music which has a theme of the night running through it. “Heise has an attractive voice and sings with appealing candour. Roger Vignoles is an attentive, vastly experienced accompanist. Yet it is hard to suppress the feeling that this debut recital is premature...In both [Danish] songs she sings with a confidence and a mezzo glow in the tone that can seem inhibited in the familiar German songs...As yet her characterisation is cautious, generalised, with no illumination of individual words and phrases.” Gramophone Magazine, Awards Issue 2012 | | | (also available to download from $10.75) | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days.

On this budget-priced 10-CD set, the legendary Austrian conductor Bruno Walter performs major works by Mahler, Mozart, Beethoven, Wagner, Brahms, and Mendelssohn. The recordings cover the years between 1935 and 1960, and they feature the Columbia Symphony, the New York Philharmonic and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestras. Amongst the soloists are some of the greatest artists of their time, including Kathleen Ferrier, Lauritz Melchior, Rudolf Serkin, and Nathan Milstein. Cultivated, sensitive and technically brilliant, Bruno Walter the musician may be reckoned among the most influential conductors in musical history, particularly in view of his definitive interpretations of works by Mozart and Mahler. But his readings of works by Beethoven, Brahms, Wagner and Mendelssohn also provide evidence that the Berlin-born Walter was an outstanding craftsman in sound. | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
