The sensation of this recording is the extremely clear, direct, warm and spacious sound. Thanks to the transistor-free tube technology which documents a musical delicacy we can rediscover this much-worn piece. Violinist Gaede and his Polish colleagues play not only with utmost precision and finely discerning dynamics, but also with bite and expression.

Kolbjurn Holthe and his inspired orchestra display both playful virtuosity and extreme serenity in their interpretations of this repertoire. The Tromse Chamber Orchestra is the only full-time professional chamber orchestra in Norway. The orchestra has become well-known as a modern and versatile ensemble of high international standard. The orchestra gives weekly concerts in Tromse, and the musicians also serve regularly as a part of the Arctic Philharmonic Orchestra. 7033662013029 SMXC1302.2 17020787 .00 20.99 .15 SIMAX CLASSICS COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL CHAMBER MUSIC & RECITALS 07/31/2012 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/2/8/5/8/2008582.jpg 5 1 N LEVINAS / DI FALCO / LEGER / MASON / OCTORS METAMORPHOSE 3760058360200 AEON1220.2 16968288 .00 20.99 .22 AEON COMPACT DISCS CLASSICAL OPERA / OPERETTA / ORATORIO 08/14/2012 https://media.aent-m.com/graphics/items/sdimages/a/500/1/1/0/1/1991011.jpg 15 1 N SCHAFER / LAND'S END CHAMBER ENSEMBLE / DUNLOP MY LIFE IN WIDENING CIRCLES The chamber music of Schafer from 3 distinct periods of his life: Kinderlieder, a fresh and innocent early work from the 50's; Wild Bird, a compelling tone painting from 1997; and mature works from the more recent past, including Six Songs from Rilke's Book of Hours". Performed by Calgary's Land's End Chamber Ensemble, an unusual collective of excellent musicians devoted to Canadian and international new music and classics from the 20th century.
