With this CD, Clemens M�ller and I-chiao Shih are championing the work of a great but wrongfully neglected Lieder composer: Franz Liszt! Pianist Clemens M�ller, who has already released the highly positively received Voyage down the Danube with GENUIN, and Taiwanese Mezzo-soprano I-chiao Shih, the winner of many international awards, soar up to Lieder heaven on the harmonies of the master's own Steingraeber grand piano from 1847. And when we hear the warmth of Shih's voice and M�ller's sensitive piano accompaniment, there is no doubt in our minds that Liszt, up on his cloud, is applauding in approval. Fans of art song take note: each Lied is more beautiful than the next, and we can easily get hooked

Biret grasps the size of Beethoven' style. The polyphony is laid out in a relaxed way with little indulgence in point making. She keeps the big line and yet is thankfully sparing in her use of fortissimos. The piano tone is sumptuous.

When conducting operas Bottesini would often perform fantasies on the evening�s entertainment during the intermission. Two such fantasies, �Lucia di Lammermoor� and �Beatrice di Tenda�, are virtuosic tours de force in which the complex double bass figurations mimic the coloratura vocal writing of the day. In keeping with this vocal style, this recording also includes the song Une bouche aim�e with double bass obbligato, most likely performed on one of Bottesini�s frequent concert tours with various leading sopranos of the day. 747313039975 NXS8570399.2 14051104 .00 19.99 .20 NAXOS COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 10/28/2008 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/3/1/4/6/1426413.jpg 4 1 N HOLMGREEN / KRONOS QUARTET / DNSO / DAUSGAARD KRONOS PLAYS HOLMGREEN 747313154869 DACA6220548SACD 14065934 .00 13.99 .24 DACAPO SUPER-AUDIO CD CLASSICAL ORCHESTRAL & SYMPHONIC 10/28/2008 https://mediacdn.aent-m.com/prod-img/500/43/1265043-2528576.jpg 19 1 N NAIVE: MAISON D'ARTISTES 10TH ANNIVERSARY / VAR NAIVE: MAISON D'ARTISTES 10TH ANNIVERSARY / VAR 822186051603 NAV5160.2 14070549 .00 18.99 .27 NAIVE COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL V/A COMPILATIONS 10/28/2008 12/08/2008 https://mediacdn.aent-m.com/prod-img/500/04/1265104.jpg 5 2 N LINDBERG,JOHN JOHN LINDBERGS TRIPOLAR 4250079758708 JZWT114.2 15758002 .00 22.99 .24 JAZZWERKSTATT COMPACT DISCS POP JAZZ 05/31/2011 10/29/2019 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/b/500/6/0/8/4/1844806.jpg 1 1 N CORELLI COMPLETE EDITION / VARIOUS CORELLI COMPLETE EDITION / VARIOUS 5028421941127 BRLT94112.2 15753908 .00 50.99 .63 BRILLIANT CLASSICS COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL ORCHESTRAL & SYMPHONIC V/A COMPILATIONS 05/31/2011 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/3/1/9/4/1844913.jpg 0 10 Y DE MACHAUT / VELLARD / ENSEMBLE GILLES BINCHOIS SACRED & SECULAR MUSIC 5028421942179 BRLT94217.2 15753984 .00 21.99 .46 BRILLIANT CLASSICS COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 05/31/2011 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/b/500/4/1/9/4/1844914.jpg 0 4 N BODUROV TRIO STAMPS FROM BULGARIA 2008 608917327625 CHLL73276.2 14183423 .00 18.99 .20 CHALLENGE COMPACT DISCS POP JAZZ 01/13/2009 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/0/4/8/0/1440840.jpg 3 1 N BASSO,GIANNI QUARTETTO GIANNI BASSO Reissue of this 1981 release. Gianni Basso represents one of the most solid institutions of Italian Jazz. He has been like this since the beginning, when he appeared in Milan after some years abroad. At that time, he already had a long story behind him as an activist Jazz musician: he started playing during his childhood in his hometown of Asti (where he was born in 1931) and then in Belgium, where his father emigrated with his family to work in the mines. 8018344021331 READ133.2 27536377 .00 18.99 .25 REARWARD COMPACT DISCS POP JAZZ 09/01/2009 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/1/7/2/2/1522271.jpg 4 1 N FOOTE / SEATTLE SYMPHONY / SCHWARZ FRANCESCA DA RIMINI / AIR & GAVOTTE / SUITE IN E Born in Massachusetts, Arthur Foote was unusual among 19th century American composers in that practically all of his training took place in the United States.

The book details the harrowing events surrounding the 7/7 London bombings in which the lives of Julie's daughter Jenny and fifty-one others were cruelly taken. The writing and recording of this disc has been a 5 year process - gradually refining the material through live performances until it felt ready. The songs with words are all settings of texts quoted in the book or included in Jenny's funeral service. The songs without words are a more visceral response to having read and re-read the book: sorrow, questioning, anger, despair, grief, memory, love. 5065001015045 ITRA1005.2 19160566 .00 16.99 .21 INTEGRA RECORDS UK COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 10/09/2012 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/b/500/6/2/3/6/2026326.jpg 7 1 N IRELAND / GOULD PIANO TRIO PIANO TRIOS Naxos' acclaimed recordings of the music of John Ireland continue with this disc of the three piano trios and music for violin and piano.

It is the first set of works composed specifically for the fortepiano, an instrument in the early stages of it's development, and therefore these works can claim to being the ancestors of the piano sonatas by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. Without these works that tested the new instrument being developed by Bartolemeo Christofori, the history of the modern piano might have been very different indeed. These sonatas, whilst nodding in the direction of Domenico Scarlatti and Archangelo Corelli in places, look forward to the new and exciting world of the stile gallante. This set Christoforo many challenges, as the sonatas, with their varied dynamics, tested the new instrument to it's limits. 842977040210 BRLT94021.2 15046864 .00 21.99 .41 BRILLIANT CLASSICS COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL ORCHESTRAL & SYMPHONIC 03/23/2010 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/1/7/0/8/1638071.jpg 0 3 Y IRELAND / ROWLANDS PIANO MUSIC 5020926311221 LYR3112.2 13809003 .00 37.99 .45 LYRITA COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 08/12/2008 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/0/1/9/8/3098910.jpg 7 3 N BRAHMS / WEITHAAS / AVENHAUS VIOLIN SONATAS 4260085530595 CAVM8553059.2 13809690 .00 19.99 .25 CAVI-MUSIC COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 08/12/2008 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/b/500/6/5/7/3/1393756.jpg 2 1 N BACH,J.S. / SCHREIER / BSO / SANDERLING GREATEST WORKS 782124842529 BLN184252.2 13834302 .00 18.99 .22 BERLIN CLASSICS COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 08/12/2008 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/c/500/8/7/7/3/1393778.jpg 3 2 N CRUMB / INTERNATIONAL CONTEMPORARY ENSEMBLE COMPLETE GEORGE CRUMB EDITION 12 090404926129 BRI9261.2 13950026 .00 18.99 .25 BRIDGE COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 09/09/2008 https://mediacdn.aent-m.com/prod-img/500/66/1276966-2552981.jpg 3 1 N PINK TURTLE POP IN SWING 3448960250320 FRAS503.2 14908286 .00 20.99 .25 FREMEAUX & ASSOC.

Grieg was an idealistic humanist whose music and writings underlined a harmony between humans and nature. The sense of nostalgia and 'postcard lyricism' often associated with him belies the wild energy also present in his music-it's primeval force, pessimistic emotions and tempestuous Romanticism. Thanks to Bjarte Engeset's carefully researched and widely admired performances, Grieg's complex musical universe can here be appreciated in full. 747313801534 NXS508015.2 26374741 .00 56.99 .82 NAXOS COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL ORCHESTRAL & SYMPHONIC 05/27/2014 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/c/500/9/3/2/8/1908239.jpg 1 8 Y LISZT / BIRET 12 GRANDES ETUDES S 138: SOLO EDITION 3 Idil Biret' new Liszt album prompts a reappraisal of her extraordinary talent... in her Liszt Sonata... you will hear playing of a formidable power and assurance... There is no mistaking her lightning reflexes in the second of the Paganini Etudes and her vi.

Greek pianist George-Emmanuel Lazard's' superb debut release for Linn features two of the most famous works in the solo piano repertoire, both performed in breathtaking style. Originally released in 2006 'Liszt: Sonatas and Etudes' has been re-issued as part of Linn's ECHO series which offers a second chance to enjoy the best of the label's award-winning catalogue. Liszt's Piano Sonata in B minor is one of the seminal works of the romantic piano repertoire and one of the most technically challenging pieces any pianist can undertake. Continuing this virtuosic theme, and demonstrating his great ambition as a pianist of the highest calibre, Lazard's also presents Liszt's Grandes �tudes de Paganini. This six-part composition, based on themes originally composed for violin by Niccol� Paganini, again places huge demands on the technical and interpretive abilities of the performer. As well as receiving a multitude of five star reviews upon it's release 'Liszt: Sonatas and Etudes' was chosen as one of '5 Essential Works by Franz Liszt' in 2012 by BBC Music Magazine. Born in Greece, George-Emmanuel Lazard's has a flourishing international career that has taken him from the United States and Mexico to Europe, Russia, Egypt, and the Middle East. During the past 20 years he has performed in some of the most prestigious venues worldwide including Carnegie Hall, Concertgebouw, St Petersburg Philharmonia Hall, Palais des Beaux Arts, Festspielhaus, Cologne's Philharmonie, Stockholm's Konserthuset, Cite de la Musique in Paris, Vienna's Konzerthaus and Musikverein, Athens Megaron and Palace of the Arts in Budapest to name but a few. His appearances have received great critical acclaim; audiences and critics alike recognize him as one of the finest pianists of his generation. Lazard's has received a plethora of honorary awards and scholarships including being named an ECHO Rising Star.
