| |  | Frank Martin - Concertos Volume 1
“…Frank Martin's Violin Concerto… has a truly magical aura and effects a compositional mastery that is worthy of the finest 20th-century examples of the genre. This new excellently engineered recording from violinist Michael Erxleben serves the music admirably and benefits from superbly attentive instrumental detail from the Winterthur orchestra under Jac van Steen.” BBC Music Magazine, May 2005 **** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

The Anthology of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra is a transcription in sound of the concert-giving history of the Concertgebouw Orchestra, based upon radio recordings from the archives of Dutch Radio and Radio Netherlands World Service. Six decades of the 20th century are put under the spotlight in six boxes, each containing 14 CDs. The RCO have chosen not only legendary performances by chief conductors of the Orchestra but also concerts led by countless guest conductors of both greater and lesser renown. Famous soloists make their debuts alongside world premieres of works that have since become classics of the repertoire. This sixth volume of the Anthology features the radio recordings made by the orchestra in the 1990s, presenting an overview on 14 CDs of the orchestra’s artistic development under various conductors during that period. The RCO will celebrate their 125th anniversary in 2013, when Volume 7 will be issued and limited print runs of the early volumes. “Hats off to the Royal Concertgebouw: this sixth installment of their 'Anthology' crowns what is without doubt the most impressive (certainly the most representative) recorded retrospective of any orchestra ever undertaken on disc...there's the expected wealth of varied interpretation, all of it well worth preserving...with this kind of evidence to hand, there's surely no valid reason to challenge this great orchestra's continued reign.” Gramophone Magazine, November 2011 | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
