The world's leading oboist plays some of the great vocal melodies of J.S.Bach. Principal oboist of the Berlin Philharmonic and a hugely successful recording artist in his native Germany, Albrecht Mayer is a world-renowned musician and winner of Germany's prestigious ECHO-Klassik as Instrumentalist of the Year. His latest Decca solo album is a celebration of the music of J.S.Bach. The album includes works written specifically for wind instruments (both oboe and cor anglais) as well as great melodies from the choral works in new, arrangements. Albrecht Mayer is joined by one of Europe's best-known baroque orchestras - The English Concert - who are among the world's finest chamber orchestras with a reputation for inspiring performances of Baroque music. The album also features the award-winning specialist baroque choir Trinity Baroque. “The most satisfying items on the disc are the eight chorales...which are all affectingly sung by Trinity Baroque under its director Julian Podger...In summary, this is an interesting concept sympathetically realised” BBC Music Magazine, July 2010 **** “...this disc provides a pleasant listening experience. We can certainly relish Mayer's exceptional technique, especially his circular breathing, and his musicianship.” Gramophone Magazine, June 2010 “Overall, a well-realised alliance of simpatico voicings.” The Independent, 26th March 2010 **** “Bach has many voices, and this disc is a bold attempt by one of the world's leading oboists to sing many of them himself...He makes a gloriously rich sound, and the alto solo 'Widerstehe doch der Sünde', with its astonishing dissonances, works well.” The Observer, 28th February 2010 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | The Flagstad Recitals Volume 4Songs for Sunday - Sacred Arias
Bach, J S: | Sheep May Safely Graze, from Cantata BWV208 Cantata BWV20 'O Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort' First Publication of Stereo Version St Matthew Passion, BWV244: Break in Grief Cantata BWV147 'Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben': Jesu, bleibet meine Freude Bist du bei mir, BWV508 | Bortnyansky: | Jubilate | Gounod: | Repentir (O Divine Redeemer) | Gruber, F: | Stille Nacht | Handel: | Messiah: He shall feed His flock Messiah: I know that my Redeemer liveth Praise ye the Lord Sommi Dei!

The fourth volume in “The Flagstad Recitals” comprises two LPs Kirsten Flagstad made with the London Philharmonic and Sir Adrian Boult in December 1956 (Bach and Handel: CD2) and April 1957 (Sacred Songs: CD1) at London’s Kingsway Hall. The Penguin Guide to bargain Compact Discs praised the ‘sacred pops’ CD for the ‘vivid projection’ of Flagstad’s voice and singled out the ‘great majesty and weight’ of her voice. As with the sacred songs, the Bach and Handel items have a devotional aura of their own and this anthology is also unique for the first stereo publication of Bach’s aria ‘Sheep may safely graze’ and the first-ever publication of ‘Art thou troubled’ from Handel’s Rodelinda. Some of the songs featured on ‘Great Sacred Songs’ made their way onto a 45rpm EP which was entitled “Songs for Sunday” – from which derives the title of this compilation. Flagstad’s own religious beliefs remain unexpressed in The Flagstad Manuscript – there are no pronouncements about morality per se or about the immortality of the soul. How she lived her life speaks for itself, however, and so do the performances on this CD: songs not just for Sunday for but every day. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
