Mishka Rushdie Momen’s debut Hyperion album ‘Reformation’ topped the UK Classical Chart, persuading critics and listeners worldwide to embrace the rich sonorities of a modern grand piano in early works written originally for harpsichord. With Hall of Mirrors, Mishka turns from England to France and jumps forward two generations to the court of Louis XIV and in particular to the music of Versailles. Here we encounter music by two of the greats—François Couperin and Jean-Philippe Rameau—alongside an extended suite by the rather less well-known Élisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre, described by contemporary writers as ‘the marvel of our age’.

The latest in Hyperion’s series of limited-edition boxed-sets brings us to The Complete Violin Sonatas of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Recorded by Alina Ibragimova and Cédric Tiberghien, this multi-award-winning set of 10 CDs comes with comprehensive commentaries from Misha Donat. ‘If ever a Mozart recording were self-recommending, this is it’ (BBC Music Magazine).

For her latest album on Decca Classics, soprano Lise Davidsen has recorded a thoughtful selection of Opera Arias by Giuseppe Verdi. Here we have scenes from Macbeth, Un ballo in maschera, La forza del destino, Don Carlo and Aida, all of them exploring the emotional worlds of the unfortunate women caught up in the stories. The London Philharmonic Orchestra is conducted by one of today’s foremost interpreters of this repertoire, Edward Gardner.

Pianist Tianxu An makes his debut on Signum Classics with a programme of Piano Sonatas by Mendelssohn, Beethoven & Schumann, three works which reflect a specifically German approach to the form, distinct from the Viennese Classical tradition, and which were composed around those years when the genre truly came of age.

Love Songs & Lullabies by Roxanna Panufnik is a new album from Signum Classics which finds the composer collaborating with musical traditions and performers from around the world on a journey in sound through Croatia, Poland, Ukraine, Syria, China, Chile and Portugal. Fellow travellers include Matthew Barley (cello), Zeynep Özsuca (piano), the Brodsky Quartet and more, and all is bound together by this composer’s unique and very personal harmonic style.

A new release from historical piano label APR brings us Karol Szreter – The Parlophon & Odeon recordings, 1926-1931, a double album centred on works by Beethoven (three sonatas and the first-ever electrical recording of the fourth concerto) and Schumann (an impressive Carnaval). The set concludes with an array of short genre pieces and a series of fabulously difficult Strauss paraphrases.
