Liszt: Piano Sonata & other works
Studio Master: CDA68067  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

‘[A] superbly serious performance … that eschews all personal vanity, all preening mannerism and flamboyance but which, with strength in abundance, locates the still centre at the heart of Liszt’s raging heroics … this is possibly the very finest of Angela Hewitt’s many recordings’ (Gramophone)

Mozart: Horn Concertos
Studio Master: CDA68097  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

‘Not least, where most players of the natural horn seek to minimise the difference in tone of those pitches that can only be got out of the instrument by hand-stopping and tricks of breathing, Pip Eastop positively flaunts them, suggesting how Mozart may have actually relied upon the effect of a muffled note here or a chromatic snarl there to help shape and colour his phrasing’ (BBC Music Magazine)» More

Prokofiev & Shostakovich: Cello Concertos
Studio Master: CDA68037  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

«Le violoncelliste anglais privilégie une approche sévère, austère quoique toujours très variée et colorée. Le caractère extraverti, sans faiblir, se nuance d'une teinte fauve et d'irisations assez inattendues. La partie soliste est jouée de façon hallucinante, avec un phrasé merveilleux et une grande maîtrise technique» (Diapason, France)» More

Scriabin: Complete Poèmes
Studio Master: CDA67988  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

‘Scriabin's microcosmic soundworlds, powered by chains of augmented and chromatically liquefied harmonies, require a transcendental technique and the ability to conjure up simultaneously myriad differentiated sounds and textures. Ohlsson possesses remarkable facility … unleashes immense reserves of power … has the required delicacy of touch’ (BBC Music Magazine)» More

Vieuxtemps: Cello Concertos
Studio Master: CDA67790  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

‘[Gerhardt shows himself] at home in the music's more sensational moments (serving up a remarkable level of detail without sacrificing a sense of line) and in its more expressive passages (his ardent performance of the middle movement of the Vieuxtemps First is especially beautiful) … all in all, a welcome release’ (International Record Review)» More
