Lena Belkina - Passion for Ukraine - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The Ukrainian folk song is unquestionably a unique phenomenon. No nation in history has amassed such a wealth of songs as those created by the Ukrainian people. UNESCO has an impressive audio library of folk songs from all over the world. The Ukrainian contribution amounts to some 15,500 songs and is far and away the biggest collection in the library. Folk music in the Ukrainian language originated in the 9th century at the time when Kyivan Rus was founded; the authors of the texts of most songs have long since been forgotten. Over the years, many composers researched and arranged them, principally for voice and piano, and transformed them into InchRomancesInch, art songs, like German Lieder. The program includes 15 songs three romances by four composers and three folk songs. Each work has accompanied the artist's life in one way or another, so it has a special meaning for Lena Belkina. Many of the works on this album are being recorded for the first time - and this is a great opportunity to discover Ukrainian music, it's character, it's temperament, it's melodic language and the influence of time upon it. The program is emotional and multi-faceted and would not have sounded so authentic without the pianist Violina Petrychenko. She is making Ukrainian piano music known around the world, recording composers like Kosenko, Revutskyi, Barvinskyi and other artists little known in the wider world. This duet is a union of opposites that are brought together to complement one another, to reflect personal strength and passion for music. The artists united by a common goal - showing Ukrainian art full of love for their country to the whole world.

Vienna Acoustics Strauss / Streng / Vienna Philharmonic / Von Karaj - Don Quixote Op. 35 - Also Sprach Zarathustra - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Captured live in a gripping concert event dated 30 August 1964, at a point in time many consider the prime of his career or something very close to it, Herbert von Karajan here offers a dazzlingly powerful display of his mastery in music of Richard Strauss, specifically two of the composer's great tone poems, Don Quixote, op. 35 and Also Sprach Zarathustra, op. 30. He is ably aided by his soloists Rudolf Streng, violist, member of the Vienna Philharmonic, founding member of the reformed Barylli Quartett active during the decade of the 1950s, and later to be heard in the Vienna Philharmonic String Quartet, and French cellist Pierre Fournier, one of the greatest at his instrument in the 20th c., known as the Incharistocrat of cellistsInch in his lifetime for his lyricism and refinement. The Vienna Philharmonic, by this time fully rejuvenated from it's wartime decline, is in superb shape. In addition, von Karajan's Vienna recordings are treasured productions in a voluminous discography otherwise dominated by the Philharmonia and Berlin recordings. Album Tracks 1. Introduktion - Thema Don Quixote, Der Ritter Von Der Traurigen Gestalt. Sancho Pansa 2. Variation I. Das Abenteuer Mit Den Windmühlen 3. Variation II. Siegreicher Kampf Gegen Das Heer Des Großen Kaisers Alifanfaron 4. Variation III. Gespräch Zwischen Ritter Und Knappe 5. Variation IV. Unglückliches Abenteuer Mit Der Prozession Von Büßern 6.

Schubert / Calcraft / Case - Winterreise D.911 Op. 89 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

SOMM RECORDINGS announces a tribute; marking the centenary of his birth; to the English baritone John Carol Case with the first of his performance of Schubert's Winterreise; accompanied by Raymond Calcraft. One of the leading baritones of his generation; John Carol Case was known for his power and poetry in diverse roles from Bach to Gilbert and Sullivan; including Elgar's The Apostles; Vaughan Williams's Dona Nobis Pacem and The Pilgrim's Progress; Finzi's songs; and as an indelible 'Christus' in Bach's St. Matthew Passion. Fifty years after it was recorded in Wesley Central Hall; Portsmouth; Case's remarkable account of Winterreise reveals him to be a commanding, insightful interpreter of Schubert's masterpiece. Restored from reel-to-reel tape by Oscar Torres; Andrew Keener and Paul Baily (also responsible for the Mastering); the performance is now released for the first time. Raymond Calcraft studied conducting with Sir Adrian Boult and has worked with choirs and orchestras in the UK and internationally. He enjoyed a long relationship with the Bournemouth Sinfonietta; conducted and recorded with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra; and has collaborated with Pepe Romero; Patricia Rozario; Janice Watson; Julian Lloyd Webber and others. Calcraft; Case's accompanist of choice during the last five years of his career before retiring in 1967; contributes an affectionate memoir of their relationship; in which he describes John Carol Case's singing as being Inchnotable for an almost tenor-like quality in it's upper register; his remarkable breath control; and above all for the clarity and eloquence of his dictionInch. Authoritative notes on Winterreise are provided by Schubert scholar Richard Stokes. SOMM's reputation for historic recordings is unmatched; it's recent 85th birthday tribute to tenor Ian Partridge; Stimme der Liebe (SOMMCD 0670) a Gramophone Editor's Choice; w
