Our CD presents a selection of five works from the extensive, largely unexplored Easter Cantata oeuvre created by Georg Philipp Telemann during the course of his sixty years in Eisenach (1708-12), Frankfurt am Main (1712-21), and Hamburg (1721-67). Four of the works recorded here date from the 1720s and take us back to the years in Telemann’s creative life as a composer when he was the new music director of Hamburg’s five principal churches and was reorganizing the city’s church music and modernizing it in musical respects.

Benjamin Luxon This British baritone enjoyed an international career propelled by a handsome instrument and a musical intelligence that allowed equal space for warmth of feeling. Against the attractiveness of vocal timbre, however, was the presence of a strong vibrato that frequently reached the point of intrusiveness, especially at higher volume. Nonetheless, Benjamin Luxon forged many memorable performances, a number of them preserved on disc. His Mussorgsky recital was warmly praised by the critical press and won the endorsement of native Russian-speaking listeners as well. In addition to opera and concert performances, he is appreciated for his work in restoring respect in parlor songs of the late 19th and early 20th century. As a student at London's Guildhall School of Music, Luxon studied with Walther Grünner. After finding himself a prizewinner at Munich's International Voice Competition, he soon launched upon a career. Luxon became a member of the English Opera Group in 1963, accompanying the troupe to the Soviet Union during his first season. After success in such roles as Tarquinius in Britten's The Rape of Lucretia and Sid in Albert Herring, Britten called upon Luxon to sing the role of Owen Wingrave for that opera's 1971 television production premiere. Also during 1971, he appeared with the English Opera Group at the San Francisco Opera.

Bruce Springsteen Comme Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, Neil Young et quelques autres, Bruce Springsteen dépasse les frontières du genre musical dans lequel on tenterait de l’encager. Au fil de ses albums, le kid du New Jersey est devenu un symbole, tant musical qu’idéologique. Marchant sur les traces de son idole Dylan, le Boss s’est lancé dans des instantanés souvent poignants de cette bannière étoilé froissée, de l’american dream souvent maltraité, bref la chronique d’une Amérique de la marge, dont il reste l’un des plus étincelants ambassadeurs… Rares sont les musiciens ayant une aura aussi développée auprès de leur public que lui. Depuis le début de sa carrière au milieu des années 70, il n’a eu de cesse de tourner, de remplir inlassablement les stades et les plus grandes salles du monde. La soixantaine bien entamée, le Boss met toujours autant d’âme dans ses concerts et sur disque, ce qui explique l’intérêt constant que lui portent ses nombreux fans.

With his Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra, Ton Koopman recorded all three of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Passions – after St John, St Matthew, and lesser-known St Mark, whose score has been largely lost but who has been reconstructed from excerpts of various cantatas. This album focuses on the choruses and chorales, sung by the Amsterdam Baroque Choir and the Choir of the Dutch Bach Association, with the help of the boys’ chorus from the Sacrament Choir of Breda. A compilation of arias, still by Ton Koopman, will be released on Good Friday, March 29th.

Each movement of the newly composed suite for violin and orchestra "Tipping Points" is introduced by specially written poems by the poet Nick Drake. The second world premiere recording on the album with the WDR Funkhausorchester is "The New Four Seasons", a cinematic-sounding new version of Vivaldi's famous "Four Seasons" by Wolf Kerschek.

For the year 1706, the then Habsburg vice-chapelmaster Marc'Antonio Ziani wrote La Morte vinta sul Calvario, a piece of Good Friday music typical of the Viennese court. Various allegorical figures such as "Faith", "Human Nature" and "The Soul of Adam" enter into a rhetorical dispute with the devil, who rejoices in the death of Christ. The text is of great poetic power, underlined by Ziani's magnificent music, which is very colorful and rich in contrast with obbligato instrumental parts and sometimes refined counterpoint.

‘From a musical point of view, but especially with regard to the stageworthiness of the work, these cuts represent an absolute improvement’ Bartok wrote to his publisher when he had finished his definitive revision of his Wooden Prince – cutting out much of the music relating to specific stage action, but also generally tightening the symphonic structure, making its large-scale mirror form appear clearer. Normally performed and recorded in its non-revised full-length version, it has been a joy now to follow Bartok’s inspired last wish revision of this mystic, vital, otherworldly, and grotesque fantasy music.

L’interprétation intense, poétique, aux sentiments exacerbés des six Sonates pour violon seul, Op. 27, d’Eugène Ysaÿe, du violoniste arménien Sergey Khachatryan, qui joue ici, pour la première fois au disque dans cet opus, le propre violon du compositeur, le célèbre et sublime Guarneri del Gesù « Ysaÿe » de 1740. La figure du Cantor de Leipzig obsédait le grand violoniste belge Eugène Ysaÿe (1858-1931) et l’ensemble de six Sonates pour violon seul qu’il compose en juillet 1923 suite à des concerts légendaires où Joseph Szigeti jouait les Sonates et Partitas de Bach se veut un hommage, et aussi le témoin en six étapes de l'évolution des techniques du violon depuis le XVIIIe siècle.

John Stainer made it his life’s work to reform and renew the standards of music in schools, parish churches, colleges and cathedrals up and down the land. His two most lasting legacies are our thriving cathedral choral tradition and this piece – The Crucifixion.Intended to be accessible, and full of the zeal and emotion of the reforming High Church, Stainer’s meditation on the Passion was immediately taken up in both Britain and America, and is as popular today as ever.Here, Duncan Ferguson and the Choir of St Mary’s Cathedral, Edinburgh are joined by two rising-star Scottish soloists and, in the hymns, by a nave-full of local young musicians and the cathedral’s own worshippers to create a true sense of the musical community spirit that the composer had in mind.

A budget priced introduction to the Switched On series, which was launched in 1992 as a way for the band to compile their many non-album tracks from one-off singles, split releases, compilation appearances, art installation commissions and more. Over the course of five volumes, the series has documented some of their best loved and most popular tracks, as well as fan favourites and intriguing deep cuts. Little Pieces… selects three tracks from each Switched On album, housed in a simple card wallet with bespoke artwork. As with the much more extensive 8CD boxset iteration, all the tracks have been remastered from the original tapes at Calyx in Berlin, personally overseen by Tim Gane.
