The latest volume of Christopher Herrick’s acclaimed series of Buxtehude’s complete organ works comes from Paris and the admired organ of St-Louis-en-l’Île – formally opened in 2005, and based on the work of Zacharias Hildebrant (1688-1757). As with previous discs, it includes a selection of the composer’s praeludia, ostinato works, canzonettas and canzonas, interspersed with chorale preludes, chorale fantasias and variations. Highlights include the magnificent Praeludium in D minor, BuxWV140, which is among the finest and most striking examples of the genre, and a particularly beautiful and contrasting set of chorale preludes. “Always captivating and frequently entertaining as he tosses off ornaments and decorative figures with the panache of a circus act, he communicates an enthusiasm for the music which never stoops to poor taste or anything less than thorough musical integrity. Always an invigorating communicator, he is as compelling in his dazzlingly articulated virtuoso displays as he is in the delicate chorale preludes.” Gramophone Magazine, May 2011 “An extraordinarily diverse tonal palette is explored in the chorale-based works...Within the more substantial works...Herrick makes numerous registration changes. These provide welcome variety and strengthen the rhetorical argument of these works which are often highly sectional in nature...This recording, along with its two predecessors in the series, is a first-rate addition to the catalogue.” International Record Review, April 2011 “Herrick is at his most persuasive in the chorale-embroidering preludes...commanding in the large-scale Magnificat Fantasia, to-the-point in the extended fugue which concludes BuxWV 145, and he discovers his inner Koopman-esque wild man at the start of the F sharp minor Praeludium whose key elicits a blaze of bullish 'attitude' from the organ's not-quite-equal temperament.” BBC Music Magazine, May 2011 **** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Raphaële Kennedy (soprano) Da Pacem This ‘themed’ programme by Da Pacem derives from a series of concerts devoted to Bach’s infamous journey on foot to hear Buxtehude play. Did he have leave of absence from his employers? Did the four month absence change his style for ever? Buxtehude achieved a staggering synthesis of the polyphonic, numerical and rhetorical traditions of his predecessors with a very personal poetry, taking care to make his music accessible to everyone, from the specialist to the layman. It is not surprising that Bach took him as his model. | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |

| |  | Glory and DamnationArrangements for Piano Duo by Heribert Breuer
Friedrich Thomas & Hansjacob Staemmler (piano) This new disc in the Piano Rarities series is an array of works arranged for two pianos by Heribert Breuer. He has chosen a variety of works ranging from J.S Bach to Max Reger, all of which, with the exception of the Mozart, are organ works. Breuer wanted to work with a broad contrast of repertoire from virtuosic to contemplative which is reflected in the title Glory and Damnation. His aim is to take the listener on an exciting journey far away from the piano literature that is heard so often. Phoenix Edition’s Piano Rarities series aims to fill those gaps. | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. (Available now to download.) |

Ton Koopman (the Wilde/Schnittger organ (1599/1682), St. Jacob’s Church, Lüdingworth, Germany) “In his excellent notes Koopman explains that Buxtehude needs a "macho" playing style and this works well as a stylus fantasticus in the virtuoso large-scale works. His interpretations are full of creative flourishes and embellishments…” Gramophone Magazine, October 2007 | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

“Faultless registration and tempi; fluidity of rhythm and her ability to make the instrument sing out into the acoustic of the building are becoming hallmarks of this series. These qualities make her playing of the Choral Preludes particularly effective; a perfect balance of the melody against its contrasting accompaniment.” Andrew McGregor, bbc.co.uk, 10th October 2005 “The chorale preludes "sing" with greater clarity, while the often wild freestyle nature of the four Praeludia…here sound more texturally detailed and chromatically varied. Her stirring conclusion to the first Praeludium in G minor is particularly ravishing.” Classics Today | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
