Hyperion's June 2009 release gives pride of place to a delectable recital of Ravel Songs (including the composer's personal favourite Ronsard à son âme—the song's one-handed accompaniment didn't interfere with his tobacco habit) from Gerald Finley and Julius Drake. Important Beethoven Chamber Works are presented by the immaculate Nash Ensemble, while The London Haydn Quartet sheds further light on Haydn String Quartets with the wonderful Op 17 cycle performed from an early edition published in London. Lawrence Power embarks on a new mini series encompassing The Complete Hindemith Viola Music, the three sonatas here being accompanied by Simon Crawford-Phillips. A seventh volume of Bach Piano Transcriptions offers up the complete transcriptions by Max Reger in definitive performances from über-Reger-ite Markus Becker. The phenomenally successful choral works of Gabriel Jackson receive the showcase treatment they deserve in an enthralling recording entitled Not no faceless Angel by Polyphony and Stephen Layton. And from the archives: we are pleased to re-issue Pro Cantione Antiqua's seminal recording of The Complete Peñalosa Motets, and Malcolm Stewart's virtuosic account of Romantic Violin Concertos by Sir Alexander Campbell Mackenzie.

These albums will be available exclusively through this website from Monday 20 April. The worldwide release date is Monday 1 June.
