Hyperion’s Bach Transcriptions series shows Bach through the fascinating prism of the Romantic musical mind. This latest volume presents the complete transcriptions by Saint-Saëns, and the programme is interspersed with transcriptions by the elder composer’s friend and disciple, Isidore Philipp. Saint-Saëns was one of the many composers inspired by the continuing publications from the Bach-Gesellschaft, which made many of Bach’s works available in print for the first time, particularly the extraordinary church cantatas. His transcriptions are of particular interest due to his choice of unfamiliar music that was not originally conceived for a keyboard instrument, and the care with which he has made the transcriptions. These are superbly effective piano realizations achieved with the minimum of intervention. Hyperion is thrilled to present the young Bulgarian pianist Nadejda Vlaeva in her label debut. She performs with a palpable energy and impressive technical assurance. “As soon as Nadejda Vlaeva launches into her first Saint-Saens Bach transcription, you know you're in for a treat. Sure enough, volume ten of Hyperion's Bach Transcriptions series proves a parade of joys for pianophiles and Bach junkies alike...Vlaeva gives it the lot...Even when Philipp's demanding textures are at their most dense, Vlaeva handles them with clarity, unflappable virtuosity and relish.” BBC Music Magazine, December 2011 ***** “As a protegee of Lazar Berman, Vlaeva rarely disappoints in matters of accomplished pianism, with plenty of that epic physical presence of her mentor...this young pianist sits worthily alongside the clutch of fine players who have illuminated this brilliant literature of Bachiana.” Gramophone Magazine, June 2012 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Vivaldi - Double Concertos
The Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin transports us to the Venice of the ‘red-haired priest’. Vivaldi gives pride of place to virtuosity: the concerto grosso tends to be supplanted by solo instrumentalists – as is clearly demonstrated by all the works presented on this CD. A majority of ‘double concertos’ (i.e. with two soloists) alternates with solo or ripieno concertos. A feast of sumptuous music-making! | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Isabella Longo, Enrico Casazza, Raffaello Negri (violin), Mauricio Naddeo (violoncello) L'estro armonico, Fabio Biondi (violin and direction) “No other set of Vivaldi's concertos contains the sheer variety on display in L'estro armonico. The catalogue has seldom been without a decent recording of these ceaselessly fascinating works, though none begins to approach this version in respect of fantasy and exuberance. Fabio Biondi and his Italian ensemble, Europa Galante, bring something entirely fresh and vital to oft-performed repertoire, illuminating well-trodden paths with affective articulation and eloquently voiced inflexions. Not all of their extravagant, Mediterranean gestures, perhaps, will find favour with listeners; indeed, some of Biondi's own embellishments can be a little inapposite. Tempos are well chosen, by and large, and ensemble is clear-textured and evenly balanced. The continuo group, which includes harpsichord, organ, archlute and Baroque guitar, makes an important contribution to the overall success.
This music is wonderful stuff, rejuvenating and immensely satisfying.” Gramophone Classical Music Guide, 2010 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
