| |  | Mládí
The eminent Berlin Philharmonic Wind Quintet (BPWQ) has recorded a number of discs for BIS, with their latest CD here featuring three composers born in what is now the Czech Republic. The disc opens with a wind quintet by Anton Reicha, who in the early 19th century ‘invented’ the entire genre, and closing with one of the absolute pinnacles in 20th-century chamber music for winds, namely Janáček’s Mládí (‘Youth’) from 1924. Framed by these two is Martinů’s Sextet for piano and winds, written in Paris in 1929 and with echoes of both Bohemian music and jazz elements. The only work in this scored for ‘regular’ wind quintet is Reicha's Quintet in E flat major alongside three rarely heard works from Reicha which use a cor anglais instead of an oboe. A duo for piccolo and piano is also included here: Janáček’s two-minute-long March of the Bluebirds; a work based on recollections of his youth. “It will hardly come as a surprise that this is ensemble playing of the highest standard from performers of immense experience - one is seldom conscious of such trifles as chording and intonation posing even the slightest difficulty. Their individual virtuosity is no less considerable.” International Record Review, January 2012 | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.

Michael Harris (clarinet) Michael Thompson Wind Ensemble “On Naxos, the British quintet led by the horn player Michael Thompson plays Hindemith's entertaining 'Little Chamber Music' and Samuel Barber's rhapsodic Summer Music, together with a less familiar but very fresh 'divertimento' by the Swede Lars-Erik Larsson; and it co-opts a bass clarinet for Janacek's extraordinary Youth, a reminiscence of childhood written at the age of 70. An attractive programme, and the performances are accomplished and affectionate…” BBC Music Magazine, June 2000 | | | (also available to download from $5.75) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
