This month's new releases |
A century ago, Richard Runciman Terry re-introduced the wonders of the Renaissance into liturgical polyphony and placed Westminster Cathedral Choir at the pinnacle of the art; their early recording of Victoria's Requiem remains an important document, and now the gentlemen of the choir have turned in an extraordinary rendition of Victoria's Missa Gaudeamus in the context of the Feast of the Assumption. At the other side of the world, Howard Shelley and the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra bring our Romantic Piano Concerto Series to Volume 48 with ebullient concertos from Sir Julius Benedict and a worthy Concertstück by the accidentally re-discovered Walter Macfarren (brother of George). Hagai Shaham and Arnon Erez explore the riches of Leó Weiner Violin Sonatas, as rewarding as they remain neglected. This month's raid on the archives has turned up a definitive survey of the medieval French trouvère repertory, part of The Spirits of England and France series from Gothic Voices and Christopher Page, a disc of pioneering 18th-century Keyboard Concertos (The Romantic Pub Piano Concerto – Vol. 1?) performed by Paul Nicholson, and Marie McLaughlin's moving tribute to her own Songs of Scotland. |
