Tapiola Sinfonietta, Jean-Jacques Kantorow Kantorow and the Tapiola Sinfonietta revisit Weber focusing on works by the young composer, before the fame that his opera Der Freischütz would bring. The two symphonies – the only works in the genre that Weber composed – were written in the space of six weeks around New Year 1808, while Weber were staying at the court of the Count of Württemberg-Öls in Carlsruhe (nowadays Pokój in Poland). The symphonies also bear witness to the period of transition from classicism to romanticism, particularly in terms of orchestral colour | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Karen Geoghegan (bassoon) Orchestra of Opera North, Benjamin Wallfisch Currently studying at the Royal Academy of Music with John Orford, nineteen-year-old Karen Geoghegan came to
the attention of the British public late last year following her appearance as a finalist on Classical Star, a BBC
reality programme. She proved immensely popular with the public and judges alike, and brought much needed
attention to the bassoon, which has generally been neglected as a solo instrument. The cellist Matthew Barley who
was mentor and presenter of the show says of Karen, ‘with her sound and focus she is already one of the great wind
players in the country’. Chandos’ Managing Director, Ralph Couzens, was so impressed by Karen’s performance
that he contacted Karen the day following the broadcast, and offered her a contract.
For her first CD with Chandos, it was decided to focus on the repertoire performed for the show. Hummel’s
Bassoon Concerto, the centrepiece of the album, is complemented by Elgar’s Romance, Berwald’s rarely recorded
Konzertstück, Weber’s Andante and Hungarian Rondo, Carl Jacobi’s Introduction and Polonaise and a beautiful
arrangement of Gershwin’s ‘Summertime’. Each work demonstrates Karen’s ability as a performer of outstanding
quality. Benjamin Wallfisch conducts the Orchestra of Opera North. “Bassoons rarely equal best-sellers: that could be about to change… Chandos have a real find on their hands with Karen Geoghegan.” Gramophone Magazine, August 2008 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
