    3 in stock

    Schumann is one of the great lifelong companions for musicians, including, Dasol Kim. The composer manages, with remarkable subtlety, to capture the fleeting yet striking moments and emotions of existence. His Carnaval, the Forest Scenes, and his final composition, the Geistervariationen ("Ghost Variations"), dedicated to Clara and first published in 1939, contain numerous references to popular imagination, literature, Schumann's life, and his reflections - all of which Dasol Kim explores here.

  • the album cover for David Munrow - Art Of David Munrow - Complete Warner Edition

    Alliance Entertainment David Munrow - Art Of David Munrow - Complete Warner Edition (CD) (New (N))

    A gifted singer and a brilliant multi-instrumentalist - with a legendary mastery of the recorder - David Munrow was a transformative force in early music. In 1967, alongside Christopher Hogwood, he founded the Early Music Consort of London, an ensemble that would redefine historical performance. His prolific discography on Warner Classics and Nonesuch remains a treasure trove of reference recordings, testifying to his immense virtuosity, eclecticism, and pioneering spirit. When he died in May 1976, at only thirty-three, Munrow left behind a recorded legacy that, in it's breadth and significance, rivalled - and in some respects surpassed - that of far more senior figures. His output ranged from the twelfth century to the high Baroque and the great vocal masterpieces of the Renaissance - with occasional forays into the twentieth century. A world-class director and a compulsive collector of instruments from around the globe, Munrow brought ancient sounds vividly to life with an infectious energy that continues to resonate today.

    Alliance Entertainment David Oistrakh - Great Violin Concertos By Oistrakh (CD) (New (N))

    "For many, Oistrakh remains the violinistic ideal. His winning combination of tonal sumptuousness, clear interpretative focus, musical humility and effortless technical poise across a broad repertoire remains unmatched to this day. When Oistrakh played, one felt there was nothing coming between the composer and the listener... He combined fingers of steel with a heart of gold."

    Alliance Entertainment Dobrawa Czocher - State Of Matter (CD) (New (N))

    14 in stock

    With her new album, State of Matter, acclaimed Polish cellist and composer Dobrawa Czocher pushes her artistry into new territories. Composed amidst a move from Warsaw to the Baltic coast, surrounded by the ocean's horizon and dense forestry, the album reflects curiously on what lies beyond and embracing the unknown. It is an ode to the courage to grow through uncertainty. The music unfolds as a journey of emotional phases, a narrative arc from the internal introspective questioning of "Monologue," to a sonic leap into motion with the rhythmic propulsion of "Blue", and the cyclical farewell in "Goodbye". Known for her atmospheric, emotionally rich compositions, Czocher has expanded her sound world, while holding true to her classical roots. She uses percussive cello techniques, Moog synthesizers, non-analog electronics, and her own voice instrumentally and without lyrics, creating a texture of expression. Recorded at the historic Studio S4 at Polish Radio in Warsaw with engineer Mateusz Danek, State of Matter balances technical craft with expressive spontaneity, it's driven by Czocher's tension between precision and intuition. It is a work that breathes, pulses, and listens back. State of Matter marks a turning point in Dobrawa Czocher's creative path-an album that reflects not only where she is, but where she dares to go.

    In this Schumann anthology, Elisabeth Leonskaja displays the full extent of both her love for the composer and her artistry, with the expressiveness and clarity that characterize her playing, making this recording a true Schumann-esque testament from this great lady of the piano. Many of these works are cycles of short pieces (Papillons, Variations, Symphonic Etudes) or sequences of miniatures, sometimes light and dance-like, sometimes virtuosic, but always imbued with poetry and depth.

    Alliance Entertainment Elizabeth Sombert / Royal Philharmonic Orchestra - Mozart: Piano Concertos 10 & 24 (CD) (New (N))

    Mozart composed the concerto for two pianos in 1779, and performed it with his sister Nannerl. It is a less adventurous work than the previous concerto, No.9 K271, but it is an altogether more successful work than No.7 for three pianos K242, which the composer arranged for two pianos. It is brilliant in nature, especially the finale. It foreshadows in places the great Sinfonia Concertante K364, but does not match the grandeur of that work. No.24 K491 from 1786 is one of the greatest of Mozart's concertos. The dark, turbulent and tragic mood undoubtedly had an influence on Beethoven's C minor concerto.

    Alliance Entertainment Emi Ferguson - Toward The Sea (CD) (New (N))

    Toward the Sea brings together three works for flute and guitar which explore memory, place and transformation. EMI Ferguson and Michael Poll trace a journey from the dance halls of Buenos Aires in Astor Piazzolla's Histoire du Tango, through the luminous stillness of Elizabeth Ogonek's Altair, to the meditative sound world of Toru Takemitsu's Toward the Sea. Recorded at the Stone Church in rural Massachusetts, the program reflects the duo's artistic partnership, which began through online collaborations during the pandemic before developing into live performances across the United States. Their own arrangement of Ogonek's Altair sits naturally between two landmark works, highlighting the continuing vitality of the flute and guitar repertoire. Ferguson, an Avery Fisher Career Grant recipient, and Poll, equally active as a guitarist and conductor, approach this repertoire as equal musical partners, allowing the distinctive voices of flute and guitar to emerge across music that ranges from Piazzolla's rhythmic vitality to Takemitsu's suspended, atmospheric sound world.

    Alliance Entertainment Emissary Quartet - (Moment)Um (CD) (New (N))

    A striking new debut from the Emissary Quartet, [moment]um explores movement, change, and momentum through a program of contemporary works for flute quartet. Inspired by the Japanese concept of "Jo-Ha-Kyu" - a progression from calm beginnings to rapid culmination - the album unfolds as a carefully shaped arc, moving from the stillness of Herman Beeftink's Frequency to the driving energy of Jennifer Higdon's Steeley Pause. The program features music by living composers including Nicky Sohn, Heike Beckmann, Sung-Hyun Yun, and Kai-Young Chan, while showcasing the unique sound world of the flute quartet. Delicate lyricism, rhythmic intensity and percussive effects all contribute to the album's sense of forward motion. Founded in 2009, Emissary Quartet has established itself as a leading flute quartet, with a strong commitment to contemporary music and collaboration. The ensemble has performed and taught across the United States, appeared at the National Flute Association Convention and Mid-Atlantic Flute Convention, and was among the few flute ensembles ever to reach the live quarterfinal round of the prestigious Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition.

    In 17th-century Venice, music underwent a series of profound transformations. It was a time of splendor, marked both by the development of musical writing and by advances in instrument making, with the rise of the violin and the recorder, experimentation with continuo without bass or keyboard, and the golden age of the sackbut. The debut album by Tumbleweeds, under the direction of Claire-Ombeline Muhlmeyer, Ballade vénitienne fully embraces this rich effervescence through works by Castello, in whose music the sackbut rivals the violin in virtuosity, as well as Grandi, Kapsberger, Marini, Uccellini and Frescobaldi. All of them spent time in La Serenissima, and each in their own way contributed to the extraordinary flourishing that would, in the following century, establish Venetian influence across Europe.

    Produced during the astonishingly fruitful year before the composer's death aged 31, the Impromptus are short, lyrical miniatures of contrasting mood and character which create a musical narrative whose imaginative reach transports the listener far beyond the 19th-century drawing room. They have been core components of Eric Lu's repertoire for several years, but the pianist decided to wait before recording them. "I have a real sense of a journey with these works, in particular with Op.90, having lived with them intensely in preparation, on stage and, finally, in the recording studio," he says. "For me, the Impromptus are some of the greatest jewels in the piano literature. They are magnificent, deep pieces of music, and the very essence of Schubert."

    Double Concertos brings together three works by composer and conductor Eric Nathan, each exploring the expressive possibilities of paired solo voices in dialogue with space, memory, and one another. Written between 2019 and 2023, the pieces on this album grew from Nathan's long-standing fascination with how two individuals interact through sound-coming together, diverging, supporting, and remembering. The Double Concertos for violin and clarinet, and for two violas, are shaped by close personal relationships between the soloists, while Just a Moment for two antiphonal oboes reflects on distance and connection, both physical and emotional. Across the album, Nathan sets present-day musical language in conversation with older forms and gestures, drawing on spatial placement, texture, and timbre to create music that is intimate in scale yet expansive in feeling. Themes of mentorship, partnership, love, and loss run quietly through these works, performed here by long-time collaborators and musicians closely connected to the music's origins.

    The term 'spectrum' is usually associated with physics. When white light hits a prism, it breaks down into the full spectrum of rainbow colors. These colors have always existed but only become visible through refraction. Music is similar. The pieces on this album are like a prism, unfolding the fundamental human emotions into their infinite facets, and creating a tribute to the timeless power of music, that resonates with the entire color palette of the human soul. The selection of pieces therefore follows an inner logic: that of emotion, timbre, and the moment. Each piece unfolds it's own microcosm and invites the listener to lose themselves within it. Esther Birringer's new album is a must for lovers of the piano, and an essential playlist addition.

    Eduard Tubin stands among the most significant symphonic voices of the twentieth century, a composer whose music draws deeply on Nordic landscape, folklore and myth while speaking with a powerful modern voice. This recording with the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra and conductor Mihhail Gerts explores the formative years of Tubin's creative life. At it's centre is the Symphony No. 2, "Legendary" (1937), a work that established Tubin's distinctive voice, moving from a mysterious opening through sombre reflection to a fiercely driven finale. Alongside it appears the Suite on Estonian Motifs, his first major orchestral composition, presented here in it's first recording. Completing the program are two early Piano Preludes from 1926, performed by Mihhail Gerts, offering a glimpse of Tubin at the very beginning of his compositional journey. Together these works trace the emergence of a composer who would go on to become one of Estonia's most important musical figures. Tracklist: Tubin: Suite on Estonian Motifs (Etw 13) I.

    Fazil Say brings together two, highly contrasted Viennese piano sonatas, composed at either end of the Romantic era. Conceived on an epic scale in four movements, Schubert's Sonata in B flat major was written shortly before his death in 1828, while in 1909 Alban Berg ushered in Modernism with his opus 1, the compact, haunting Piano Sonata in B minor. "Schubert was only thirty when he died," writes Fazil Say. "There is unique depth of sorrow and melancholy here, the pain of parting from this world. At the same time, we feel Schubert's joy of life, his vitality, his attachment, his passion, even his defiance." While the Schubert sonata is a recent addition to Say's repertoire, he explains that "I first encountered Alban Berg's piano sonata at the age of 15, and I performed it as a student in Ankara... he became one of the main figures who opened the door for me to contemporary music... His opus 1, while anchored in B minor, sails boldly toward atonality and modern expression... The piano is used almost orchestrally, full of colour and intensity. It is a remarkably beautiful piece."

    In 1696, the Salzburg court conductor Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber described his print of seven chamber suites ("Partien") for two string instruments and basso continuo as "artful vocal harmony" in ornate Latin. These trio sonatas are of a special kind, because the two upper voices are not limited to the typical imitations practised in Italy at that time, but Biber allows the solo voices to be played in a free, expressive manner. He allows them to shine in a different light in virtuoso interplay above the bass foundation, repeatedly in full-bodied polyphony or in chords. In addition, new timbres are created through the use of the violin, viola and viola d'amore in various combinations and the 'detuning' of the strings (scordatura) to achieve different string tensions and thus give the instruments a sharper or softer sound. This recording is the third installment of the Biber recordings with Harmonie Universelle. Tracklist: Biber: Partia I in D minor: Sonata.

    With Vieni, o Notte, Francesca Aspromonte signs her first recording for Aparté with an all-Scarlatti program. Together with Arsenale Sonoro and Boris Begelman, she explores three cantatas (sometimes described as serenate) in which the composer makes the night the stage for his characters' thwarted loves. He gives them arias and recitatives that are painful, contemplative, or searing, complemented by two sonate a quattro with madrigalian lines, whose quartet performance by Arsenale Sonoro highlights the bold harmonic shifts, the shadows, and the light. The album closes with All'hor che stanco il sole, a world-premiere recording - a musical meditation on love and loss. Here, Aspromonte unfolds a mastery of line and text that reveals the full sensuality of this music. Tracklist: Scarlatti: Notte Ch'in Carro D'ombre, H. 480: Sinfonia.

  • the album cover for Francisco Fullana / Maksimal Ensemble - Maksimal

    Alliance Entertainment Francisco Fullana / Maksimal Ensemble - Maksimal (CD) (New (N))

    Maksimal brings together three major works by Daniel Temkin, music shaped by vivid physical images and a search for the forces that connect experience, memory, and place. At it's center is the violin concerto Maksimal, written for and performed here by Francisco Fullana with Ryan McAdams and the Maksimal Ensemble. Bright, agile, and rhythmically charged, the three movements balance solo virtuosity with quicksilver ensemble dialogue, nodding to Baroque concerto principles while stretching them into larger, continuous arcs. Dreamed Landscapes turns to the piano, with Ryan MacEvoy McCullough tracing three impressionistic studies inspired by galaxies, glaciers, and canyon horizons. Rather than literal depiction, the music focuses on colour, resonance, and the inner sensation of inhabiting these spaces. Completing the program is Ocean's Call, performed by the Aizuri Quartet, a work inspired by California's Pacific coast. From misty harmonics and brittle wind textures to expansive, storm-driven waves, the piece unfolds as a meditation on nature's power and calm. Recorded across Houston and New York, Maksimal is Temkin's second solo album on Orchid Classics: a focused, immersive portrait of a composer drawn to sound as landscape, motion, and shared human experience.

    Following his complete Ravel recording), François-Xavier Poizat continues his exploration of the composer with an album devoted entirely to transcriptions. From Daphnis et Chloé to Shéhérazade, and from the Rapsodie espagnole to the jazz-inflected world of L'Enfant et les Sortilèges, this programme for two pianos, percussion, flute and voice casts Ravel's melodic lines, colours and meticulous craftsmanship in a new light. Deeply at home in this repertoire, François-Xavier Poizat once again demonstrates his gifts as a colourist, alongside his virtuosity and freedom of expression.

    A Polish composer endowed with sensitive and bold artistic views, Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937) is perhaps one of the most authentic heirs to the musical and pianistic realm of Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849). The two composers share an irresistible attraction to memory, a fondness for an intangible yet inextinguishable voice of the soul. This album offers a journey through the various works and stages of their respective creative lives, the Mazurkas in particular, which obviously bring the two men closer to each other from an emotional perspective.

    This new recording brings together violinist Gil Shaham, conductor Eric Jacobsen, and the Virginia Symphony Orchestra in a program exploring the violin concerto as a vehicle for cultural memory and continuity. The album pairs Samuel Coleridge-Taylor's Violin Concerto in G minor, Op. 80, and Antonín Dvorák's Violin Concerto in A minor, Op. 53, with the world-premiere recording of "F. Harper," from The Famous People by Curtis Stewart. Coleridge-Taylor's concerto reveals a Romantic voice shaped by lyricism and rhythmic vitality, while Dvorák's work reflects folk influence and communal musical expression. Stewart's F. Harper responds through a contemporary lens, engaging questions of naming, lineage, and identity. Inspired by the layered meanings of "Slavonic," the work draws parallels between European histories of enslavement and the ways Black Americans continue to shape pride and cultural legacy today. Together, these works connect past and present through sound. Tracklist: Coleridge-Taylor: Violin Concerto in G minor, Op.80I. Allegro maestoso Coleridge-Taylor: Violin Concerto in G minor, Op.80II.

    The Chevalier de Saint-George is in many respects an exceptional figure. Born in Guadeloupe in the eighteenth century to an aristocrat and an enslaved woman, he received in Paris the education of a court gentleman: violinist, fencer, Freemason, participant in the Revolution, and conductor, he was also a composer. It is naturally to the violin that he dedicated his finest works, among which the concertos, marked by a virtuosity that is both unbridled and graceful, stand out in particular. Romuald Grimbert-Barré and the Orchestre national de Cannes pay tribute to this extraordinary life by pairing the Op. 5 and Op. 8 concertos with Thierry Pécou's Concerto Hommage à Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-George. Through it's many biographical references, the work offers multiple poetic points of entry into the life of this singular and fascinating figure, who remains far too little known today.

    Vivaldi's famous Four Seasons are dedicated to Count Wenzel von Morzin from Prague. In 1718, he traveled to Venice with his 'virtuosissimo orchestra' and hired Vivaldi as 'maestro di musica italiano'. This marked the beginning of an era of close musical exchange between Venice and Prague. This relationship, which shaped an entire generation of Czech composers, is the focus of Vivaldi in Prague. The program includes concertos by Frantisek Jiránek, who was employed in Count Morzin's chapel and studied in Vivaldi's circle in Venice from 1724 to 1726, and by Antonín Reichenauer, whose musical thinking was strongly influenced by Vivaldi's school. The program is complemented by a bassoon concerto by Vivaldi dedicated to Count Morzin, an aria from a Vivaldi opera performed in Prague in 1730, and two arias from Vivaldi pasticcios reconstructed by Robert Rawson for this production. These pasticcios were compiled by the Venetian impresario Antonio Denzio from popular Vivaldi operas and presented to Prague audiences with new texts, including some in Czech.

    Elements explores the distinctive sound world of saxophone and harp in a program that moves between Baroque masterworks and newly commissioned music inspired by the four classical elements: Earth, Air, Fire and Water. Performed by saxophonist Huw Wiggin and harpist Oliver Wass, the album places Bach, Purcell, Vivaldi and Couperin alongside contemporary works written specially for the duo. Each commission reflects a different elemental idea, from the luminous textures of Charlotte Harding's Euphotic to the volatile energy of Laura Bowler's Caesium and the wind-driven virtuosity of David Wallace's blowing A gale. Interwoven throughout are inventive arrangements of Baroque works, drawing subtle connections across centuries. The pairing of saxophone and harp creates a sound palette that is intimate and richly coloured, capable of lyric stillness and brilliant display. Praised for his "liquid gold tones" by The Times, Wiggin joins forces with leading harpist Oliver Wass in a programme that moves between reflection, drama and radiant beauty.

  • the album cover for Insula Orchestra / Equilbey, Laurence - Beethoven Extended: Symphonies Nos. 5 & 7

    Alliance Entertainment Insula Orchestra / Equilbey, Laurence - Beethoven Extended: Symphonies Nos. 5 & 7 (CD) (New (N))

    Combining the vigorous forces of the Insula Orchestra and Insula camerata, Laurence Equilbey revives a historic tradition: that of the double orchestra. Beethoven, who was familiar with this principle, composed with the great festivals in mind at which orchestras could muster large numbers, often exceeding a hundred players. A unique musical experience. Tracklist: Beethoven: Symphony No. 5 in C minor, Op. 67 (Arr. for Double Orchestra By Laurence Equilbey): I. Allegro Con Brio Beethoven: Symphony No. 5 in C minor, Op. 67 (Arr. for Double Orchestra By Laurence Equilbey): II.
