June 2015 Releases

Ferociously talented violinist Alina Ibragimova takes on the Ysaÿe Sonatas for solo violin. These challenging works, among the pinnacles of the genre, are Hyperion's Record of the Month for June 2015. Further delights for string enthusiasts are to be found in Steven Isserlis and Stephen Hough's recording of Cello Sonatas by Grieg, Mendelssohn & Hough, three works spanning the best part of two centuries united by romanticism with a big heart.

The Nash Ensemble has returned to the studio to bring us a delectable programme of American chamber music by Herrmann, Gershwin, Waxman & Copland, at its heart the wonderful Souvenirs de voyage by Bernard Herrmann and Gershwin's own piano arrangements of 'songs from the shows'. Christopher Herrick sparkles in Power of Life, a showcase for the wonders of the new Metzler organ at Poblet Monastery and an exploration of some of the more unusual byways of the repertoire. Classical control, on the other hand, is to the fore in a new album from Arcangelo and Jonathan Cohen: masterful performances of Mozart Concertos & Haydn Sinfonia concertante bring out the very best from soloists Ilya Gringolts, Nicolas Altstaedt, Alfredo Bernardini and Peter Whelan.
