“Konrad Jarnot is mesmerising in the opening slumber, and with noble tones from pianist Reinid Mills he makes Elizabeth Barrett Browning's 'Sabbath Morning at Sea' more persuasive than I've ever heard it.” BBC Music Magazine, July 2008 **** “Here's another fresh slant on Elgar's masterly Sea Pictures, this time a most persuasive first recording employing a make voice… With this exemplary diction, unflustered poise and focused tone… Konrad Jarnot forges an instinctive alliance with the admirable Reinild Mees, who accompanies with stylish understanding. Amanda Roocroft... contributes very creditably...” Gramophone Magazine, April 2008 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Her Song - Orchestral Songs & AriasRecorded: The Colosseum, Town Hall, Watford, 27-29 January 2009
Susan Gritton’s solo recital with the BBC Concert Orchestra and Martyn Brabbins is focussed on orchestral songs by Elgar and John Ireland, varied with delightful solo items by Susan’s grandfather Eric Gritton, by John Sanders, and an aria from Parry’s opera ‘Guenever’, here orchestrated by Jeremy Dibble. This is an enchanting and pioneering survey, with ten Elgar orchestral songs ringingly presented and crowned by Susan Gritton’s affecting reading of The Sun Goeth Down from ‘The Kingdom’. This is the first time so substantial a survey of Elgar’s orchestral songs has been presented in one programme. The song by Eric Gritton, O Stay, Madonna, is a ripe example of lyrical Edwardiana and contrasts nicely with John Sanders’ atmospherically floated Evening on Severn, and Parry’s affecting but stoutly written aria for Queen Guenever facing death at the stake. In contrast there are two groups of John Ireland songs, nine in all, each especially eloquent when heard with orchestral accompaniment. They include the title song Her Song of 1925, which makes a touching lyrical foil to Elgar’s exuberance. “Throughout Gritton is musically purposeful… while Martyn Brabbins and the BBC players do a fine job.” BBC Music Magazine, October 2009 **** “…performances are all one could hope for. Susan Gritton brings resplendent tone and intelligent observation to the task in hand, and she receives bright-eyed sensitive support from the BBC Concert Orchestra under Martyn Brabbins.” Gramophone Magazine, January 2010 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
