The music selected by Tina Chen and Hannibal for this recital is the soundtrack for a day dream, or the twilight accompaniment for a romantic dinner. The emphasis is on Melody – beautiful, finely arched musical lines that reach beyond the pressures of everyday life and transport you, to a quiet realm of song, warmly and realistically recorded in SACD, Super Audio Sound!

This recording also marks the CD debut of the charismatic, young concert violinist , Chen Yi, was the Gold Medal winner at the China International Violin competition (2008).

Pablo Casals (cello)

“The Rubinstein/Popper represents the salon side of Casals, very Romantic, with the cellist clearly enjoying himself – and enjoyment that flies across the years and into our living rooms. And really, the Liszt Liebestraum is brought into this arena. It is just Casals’ sort of thing. He reaches the stratosphere around 2’25 in, and yet is infinitely agile up there. Liszt, surely, must be smiling somewhere.” MusicWeb

Handel at the Opera

Handel at the Opera


Handel:

Overture, Aria & Entractes from 'Alcina'

Overture & Minuet from 'Arminio'

Largo from Xerxes (instrumental arrangement)

Overture, Minuet & Ghigg from 'Berenice'

Lascia ch'io pianga (from Rinaldo)

Overture, Minuet & Aria from 'Rodelinda'

Overture, Aria & Entractes from 'Ariodante'


“Handel's music is never more winsome than when it's written for special occasions, not least operas. Several of the items in this programme are arias, but they aren't sung. Like today's musicals, though not for calculated commercial reasons, some became what we would now term pops, and Handel reworked them as instrumental pieces, so no liberty has been taken here in presenting them in that form. The charm of this music hasn't escaped the notice of others in recording studios, but it has never been more persuasively captured than it is by Collegium Musicum 90. Other recordings exist of the complete operas and some of the individual instrumental items, but Arminio is represented by only one aria; there's nothing run-of-the-mill about the fugal subject of the Overture, or its treatment, and the Minuet is winsome and light of step. Collegium Musicum 90 fields a team of 32 players but their sound is marvellously light and transparent even when in full flood, and their use of period instruments (or copies thereof) leads also to a natural, revelatory balance. Flawless recording and excellent notes by Standage complete an outstanding issue.” Gramophone Classical Music Guide, 2010
