The earliest works, small-scale rococo trifles in which the violin played a subsidiary part and the keyboard (virtually certain to be a harpsichord at that date) was the star performer, date from the time of his first major tour through Europe. Leopold Mozart had four of these early sonatas published in Paris in 1764, two as opus 1 and two as opus 2. In the following year, he had another series of six sonatas published in London as opus 3. Yet another series of six sonatas, opus 4, written in the Hague by Wolfgang (and possibly by Leopold?) in 1766, appeared that same year, both there and in Amsterdam. Then Mozart's production of violin and piano sonatas was interrupted by a twelve-year silence. Not until his stay in Mannheim in 1777 and 1778 would he complete four new sonatas, in which the violin's role had grown considerably, offering a genuine partnership to the piano. In the summer of 1778, Mozart added two more new sonatas to the series of six Paris sonatas, and published the set there as Opus 1, as if he intended his mature oeuvre to begin at this point. Then, after another interval of three years, came the six sonatas published in 1781 as Opus 2 by Artaria in Vienna, Mozart's new and ultimate place of residence. One of the pieces had been composed in Mannheim, and another presumably dated back to Salzburg. Mozart composed the other four sonatas in the summer of 1781 in Vienna. Four more violin sonatas, his last works in the genre, were composed, also in Vienna, between 1784 and 1788......\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Channel Classics","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738319237444,"sku":"26208-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738319270212,"sku":"26208-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738319302980,"sku":"26208-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738319335748,"sku":"26208-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738319368516,"sku":"26208-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738319401284,"sku":"26208-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"WAV 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57307806171460,"sku":"26208-3","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334381838660,"sku":"26208S1417","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334381871428,"sku":"26208S69","price":26.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334381904196,"sku":"26208S710","price":25.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/26208-2.jpg?v=1790427820"},{"product_id":"26909-i-was-like-wow","title":"I Was Like WOW","description":"\u003cp\u003eJacobTV (Jacob ter Veldhuis) composed the piece I Was Like WOW! for me in the summer of 2006.

The powerful emotions connected with this event were a stimulus to Schumann's creative impulses, for he was a Romantic through and through. It was at this time that he composed the deeply personal Davidsbndlertnze -18 dances inspired by the imaginary league of David. This fellowship, invented by Schumann, consisted of Schumann's own alter egos, plus a number of well-respected musicians and friends including Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy. The group was established as a way of fighting against the Philistines; it was Schumann's response to contemporary musical trends which he saw as cheap, excessively virtuosic, and superficial. Two of the Davidsbndler, Schumann's alter egos Florestan and Eusebius, occupy a central place in all of the composer's works. Florestan, is extroverted, lively, and wild; Eusebius is intimate, gentle, and shy. The tensions between these two extremes also provides a narrative thread for the Davidsbndlertnze. Schumann placed the signature of one character or the other at the end of each of the eighteen dances; some are even signed by both characters. At the end of the cycle, the second dance, one of Eusebius's melodies, returns, only to be cruelly interrupted by Florestan. But Eusebius, nevertheless, has the last word. Over the last dance, Schumann wrote Ganz zum berflu meinte Eusebius noch folgendes; dabei sprach aber viel Seligkeit au seinen Augen. [Eusebius expressed the following opinion, quite unnecessarily; but at the time, great happiness spoke from his eyes. In 1838, a year after the Davidsbndlertnze, Schumann composed the Arabeske. Peaceful, equable and timeless are words befitting this little composition, meant to be a delicate ornament. The Arabesque, as a musical form, was later used by other compoers, such as Debussy and Reger, in an expression of admiration for Schumann.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Channel Classics","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738542321988,"sku":"28709-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738542354756,"sku":"28709-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738542387524,"sku":"28709-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738542420292,"sku":"28709-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738542453060,"sku":"28709-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57307822260548,"sku":"28709-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334399402308,"sku":"28709S1417","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334399435076,"sku":"28709S69","price":26.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334399467844,"sku":"28709S710","price":25.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/28709.jpg?v=1790116908"},{"product_id":"cobra0039-dialogo","title":"Dialogo","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Dialogue is the starting point and unifying force in all human relationships”\u003cbr\u003eDaisaku Ikeda\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCellist Joris van den Berg and pianist Martijn Willers present their first CD, titled “Dialogo”, named after the first movement of the cello sonata by Benjamin Britten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis CD represents the dialogue in all its forms: An intense conversation between two outstanding musicians, constantly challenging and inspiring one another, reaching new heights in that process; a dialogue between musicians and audience, the wonderful experience of sharing incredible music together; and finally, the dialogue between musician and composer, a fascinating process which the two sonatas on this CD demonstrate perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenjamin Britten’s cello sonata is bursting with fantastic techniques and effects in which cello and piano are constantly in active conversation.

Looking back on his early efforts in the summer of 1824, just a few months after he had completed his Death and the Maiden Quartet D.810, he seems to have had scant regard for them. Responding to a letter from his elder brother Ferdinand, who described his pleasure at rediscovering those youthful pieces, Schubert told him, ‘it would be better for you to keep to quartets other than mine, for there is nothing to them, except perhaps that you like them, as you like everything of mine’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSchubert had made a brief return to string quartet writing at the end of 1820, in a manner that showed his ambition to produce a work more intense and dramatic than anything he had attempted in the genre before. But just as his first serious efforts to master the piano sonata some three years earlier had resulted in several aborted projects, so, too, the string quartet of 1820 was destined to remain unfinished. Over the string quartet, as over the piano sonata, loomed the giant figure of Beethoven (‘Who can do anything after Beethoven?’,2 Schubert once complained to his friend Josef von Spaun); and perhaps it was unwise of Schubert to have chosen to make his return to the quartet arena with a piece in C minor – the key Beethoven had made so much his own. In terms of its actual material the one portion of the work Schubert did manage to complete – the so-called Quarttetsatz, or ‘Quartet Movement’, D.703 – is of the highest quality, though it is possible that he remained dissatisfied with its unorthodox form. At any rate, he abandoned the score after having composed no more than forty bars of its slow movement. The opening Allegro was published for the first time in 1870, more than forty years after Schubert’s death, while the fragmentary slow movement did not appear in print until 1897, when it was issued in the value to that of the ‘Unfinished’ Symphony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"harmonia mundi","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738605891908,"sku":"HMU907427-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738605924676,"sku":"HMU907427-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738605957444,"sku":"HMU907427-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738605990212,"sku":"HMU907427-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738606022980,"sku":"HMU907427-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57307968373060,"sku":"HMU907427-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334520348996,"sku":"HMU907427S1417","price":32.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334520381764,"sku":"HMU907427S69","price":30.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334520414532,"sku":"HMU907427S710","price":29.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/HMU907427-1.jpg?v=1790121802"},{"product_id":"cc72552-bruckner-symphony-no-6","title":"Bruckner Symphony no. 6","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the early days of the symphonies history, there was nothing like the meticulousness of our approach to Bruckner’s work.

If you are lucky enough that it isn’t raining, the weather can be beautiful in Salzburg, and this was one of those sultry summer evenings. The barbecue worked well, the beer and wine flowed. A few Russian and Ukrainian singers had come and brought their own bottle of vodka. It wasn’t long before they finished it and went on to beer.\u003cbr\u003eIt was a long night. At about two, when just a small group was left, the singing finally began. (It takes a while before a singer will spontaneously break out in song. If you ask a professional singer to “Sing something for us”, you’re not likely to get your wish. It must be some sort of professional deformity.) First came the national anthems. Then the Ukrainian singer began to sing – with full voice and total devotion - other folk songs from his country, and soon his wife joined in. Everyone sat in silence, listening.\u003cbr\u003eThe melancholy of the music took hold of the listeners and even the singer himself. Maybe it had to do with the feeling of nostalgia that singing folk songs evokes, the feeling that you belong somewhere? Or maybe it\u003cbr\u003ewas the straightfoward and simple presentation of the songs. In any case, they fitted in perfectly – in the wee hours of the morning and with empty bottles surrounding us. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Challenge Classics","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738651636036,"sku":"CC72346-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738651668804,"sku":"CC72346-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738651701572,"sku":"CC72346-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738651734340,"sku":"CC72346-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738651767108,"sku":"CC72346-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57308169601348,"sku":"CC72346-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334599254340,"sku":"CC72346S1417","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334599287108,"sku":"CC72346S69","price":26.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334599319876,"sku":"CC72346S710","price":25.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/CC72346-1.jpg?v=1790125563"},{"product_id":"sachr70116-sonatala","title":"Sonatala","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eHarmen Fraanje Quartet\u003c\/strong\u003e was founded in the summer of 2002.

They are the culmination of Advent in preparation for the celebrations of Christmas Eve and Day. Advent itself begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas of course. Children start to open the pictures on their Advent calendars. Advent candles are lit to measure off the days left. Christmas fairs are set up across Germany. In Provence the crèche is peopled with santons. In Denmark the traditional Christmas lunch (an allafternoon affair at the very least) puts politics and business on hold. Across America the Christmas shops that have been open most of the year suddenly begin to make sense. And everywhere the carol singers begin to gather. Putting aside the commercial mayhem that surrounds a modern Christmas, all of these activities contrive to remind us that Christmas begins, musically as well as theologically, about a month before the day itself. Properly speaking it continues for some time afterwards as well, although carol singing, indoors or outside, tends to stop rather abruptly once the presents have been unwrapped.\u003cbr\u003eI don’t know if my musical colleagues have similar experiences – I expect they do – but my musical encounter with Christmas tends to run well into the New Year, either with more seasonal concerts or a carols recording on the back of December’s music-making. And it picks up again quite early in the summer when I start to plan the final details of my carol concerts for the following winter. Actually there is nothing I enjoy more on a hot June afternoon than to cool off indoors by playing through some favourite carols and perhaps starting to work on a new arrangement of one tune or another. This may all seem a bit weird to more normal people, for whom the onset of Christmas is probably signaled by the appearance of decorations in shops, but it was ever thus in my experience.\u003cbr\u003eThis is the fourth in a series of carol recordings for harmonia mundi that have featured a number of my own carol arrangements. Most of these arrangements have now been published by Theatre of Voices Edition: https:\/\/www. tov-edition.com. The first two CDs were Carols from the Old and New Worlds volumes 1 and 2. Next came The Christmas Story (2011), which follows a narrative pattern built loosely on the plan of Nine Lessons and Carols, and including early music as well as traditional. This newest addition maintains the transatlantic approach of the first two CDs, but because the singers here are Chamber Choir Ireland, I have flavoredthe mixture with a hint of Irish music for good measure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"harmonia mundi","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738714353988,"sku":"807610DI-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738714386756,"sku":"807610DI-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738714419524,"sku":"807610DI-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738714452292,"sku":"807610DI-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738714485060,"sku":"807610DI-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57308339175748,"sku":"807610DI-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334658793796,"sku":"807610DIS1417","price":32.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334658826564,"sku":"807610DIS69","price":30.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334658859332,"sku":"807610DIS710","price":29.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/807610DI-1.jpg?v=1790130069"},{"product_id":"sacd008-brahms-violin-sonatas","title":"Brahms Violin Sonatas","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBrahms was a severe critic of his own work, often assailed with uncertainty and reluctant to publish works he considered immature or incomplete.

The instrument has, however, suffered an unkind fate over the course of time as a result of moves within the cathedral, a reduction of the number of stops, and exposure to dampness and draft. Maintenance of the organ eventually became so demanding that those in charge of its repair could only pray and hope for the best. Many years of tireless effort to have the organ restored, led by former Director of Music Per Fridtjov Bonsaksen, finally produced results, and in the spring of 2012 the municipality of Trondheim agreed to act as guarantor for the cost of the restoration project. In late summer of the same year, Kuhn Organ Builders began the laborious task of dismantling the organ and sending a significant portion of the instrument to its factory in Switzerland for restoration.

At this time, Tchaikovsky was once again tak- ing a holiday on the country estate of his sister Aleksandra, located near the Ukrainian town of Kamianka, in the Kiev Governerate. Numerous anecdotes report Tchaikovsky’s touching assertion that he was not the true creator of the work, but rather, that it actually had been composed by one Pyotr Gerasimovich, one of the older servants in the household of his sister and her husband, Lev Davydov, for it was Pyotr Gerasimovich who had sung the folksong, The Crane, to him, which provided the basis for the work’s finale. Regardless of the story’s veracity, there is no other work in Tchaikovsky’s symphonic oeuvre that contains such a wealth of authentic folksong themes beside freely composed folksong-like creations. The work’s unofficial title, Little Russian Symphony, is indeed attributable to the fact that so many Ukrainian folksongs are employed in it, ‘Little Russia’ having been the standard term for the central and northern portions of today’s Ukraine in Tsarist times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pentatone","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738885665092,"sku":"PTC5186382-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738885697860,"sku":"PTC5186382-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738885730628,"sku":"PTC5186382-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738885763396,"sku":"PTC5186382-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738885796164,"sku":"PTC5186382-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57308571926852,"sku":"PTC5186382-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334814343492,"sku":"PTC5186382S1417","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334814376260,"sku":"PTC5186382S69","price":26.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334814409028,"sku":"PTC5186382S710","price":25.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/PTC5186382.jpg?v=1790135380"},{"product_id":"sacd148-rimsky-korsakov-sheherazade-noseda-version-1","title":"Rimsky-Korsakov: Shéhérazade - Noseda (Version #1)","description":"Scheherazade Imaginative orchestrator and supreme colorist, Rimsky-Korsakov, he started the symphonic suite Scheherazade in the summer of 1888, spent in the quiet of a remote village of propitious remote district of Luga, at the time when he had just completed the orchestration of Prince Igor Borodin left unfinished by his friend and colleague, who died the year before.

Although Dvorák concluded the work towards the end of the summer of 1879, after completing his exceedingly successful Slavonic Dances, a further four years would pass before the violin concerto finally appeared in print and actually received its première. With his reference to “good violinists”, Simrock (ever on the lookout for a good business deal) prob- ably had one person in particular in mind: Joseph Joachim. Two years previously, this violinist – who nowadays would enjoy the status of a megastar – had “launched” the violin concerto written by Johannes Brahms, following a period of intensive collaboration with the composer. So it seemed only logical that Dvorák – who was now also gaining an international reputation – would write the next concerto specifically for the famous virtuoso. During the summer, Dvorák and Joachim spent some “pleasant and delightful moments” together in Berlin. It seemed as if nothing would stand in the way of a rewarding and steady collaboration. Thus in the autumn of 1879, Joachim received the manuscript of the concerto. However, apart from his thanks for the dedication, his reaction was mainly to send back a list of requests for massive changes in both the formal structure of the work and the solo violin part. After meeting personally with him in April 1880, Dvorák decided to fundamentally revise the work, which he concluded the following May.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pentatone","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738899099972,"sku":"PTC5186353-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738899132740,"sku":"PTC5186353-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738899165508,"sku":"PTC5186353-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56738899198276,"sku":"PTC5186353-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56738899231044,"sku":"PTC5186353-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57308632580420,"sku":"PTC5186353-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334977659204,"sku":"PTC5186353S1417","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334977691972,"sku":"PTC5186353S69","price":26.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57334977724740,"sku":"PTC5186353S710","price":25.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/PTC5186353.jpg?v=1790136864"},{"product_id":"ptc5186042-johannes-brahms-symphony-no-2-tragic-overture","title":"Johannes Brahms - Symphony No. 2, Tragic Overture","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eJohannes Brahms did not write his first symphony until he was 43 years old, and then only subsequent to lengthy and self-critical reflection. His fear of the shadow of the unattainable and admired example of Beethoven was too great. Yet after he finally and successfully made up his mind to try his hand at this genre, he completed his fourth symphony within less than ten years. Contrary to other major composers, instead of spreading the composition of his symphonies throughout his entire career, Brahms completed this oeuvre within a surprisingly short period of time,\u003cbr\u003eBrahms struggled for almost two decades with his Symphony No. 1, yet his Symphony No. 2 seemed almost to write itself. Only a few months lay between the first sketches and the completion of the score. During a happy summer holiday, the composer, who was by nature pensive, had felt inspired by the idyllic background of the Wörther lake. The carefree atmosphere of Pörtschach made it easy for Brahms to develop and complete the composition: “The Wörther lake is a fertile base, melodies come flying out so fast, that one has to take care not to tread on them,” thus he wrote to his publisher Simrock in 1877. In fact, following its first performance in Vienna on December 30, 1877, the work was praised by the critics as “poetic”, “blossoming like spring” and in the best Beethovenian sense of the word, “pastoral”. Nevertheless, one should take care not to search for “naturalistic” examples, as there were in Beethoven’s “Pastoral” Symphony.

Magnificent parties were held at Esterháza, and each occasion was accompanied by music and theatrical performances. The ‘Beschreibung des Hochfu?rstlichem Schlosses Esterháss’ (= description of the royal palace Esterháss), dating from 1784, contains the following passage: “Every day both serious and comic operas, as well as German comedies, are staged, which are always attended by Prince Esterházy. The performance usually begins at six o’clock at night.

Felix was struck by the wild Scottish sea- and landscapes and made drawings and water colours. But also the Hebrides Ouverture and Symphony no. 3 (the Scottish) are memorable fruits.

During their travels Brahms met the renowned violin virtuoso Joseph Joachim, whom he had heard five years earlier in a performance of Beethoven’s violin concerto.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe two took to each other immediately, and Joachim was deeply impressed by what he heard of the young Brahms: “…and his compositions display such meaningfulness as I have never before seen in such a young artist,” he is reported to have commented. The following summer Joachim and Brahms spent several weeks together and laid the foundation of a friendship that was to last almost half a century. On the strength of his reputation as a renowned and respected performer, Joachim wrote a number of introductory letters on behalf of Brahms, including one to Robert and Clara Schumann. And in September of that same year Brahms met the Schumanns for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\nJohannes Brahms’ Sonata no. 3 for piano, opus 5, bears impressive testament to the young composer’s formidable gift as a composer and pianist. “In its heroic scale, unconventional layout, and high quality of thought it was one of the most impressive sonatas since those of Beethoven and Schubert,” writes music critic Calum MacDonald, who further suggests that Brahms wrote his sonata as a response to Liszt’s B minor sonata, which Brahms had heard Liszt play in the summer of 1853. The sonata opus 5 was the last work for solo piano in the genre that Brahms would write.\r\n\r\nThe two Rhapsodies op. 79 were composed in 1879 when Brahms was in his mid-forties and at the peak of his career. These two compositions are the largest free-standing single-movement piano pieces Brahms had written since the Scherzo, op. 4. The Rhapsodies are dedicated to Elizabeth von Herzogenberg, Brahms’ student, and lover.\r\n\r\nFor the Ballad op. 10, no. 1, Brahms was inspired by the Scottish ballad Edward (which he later set for vocal duet in his opus 75).\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eNils Anders Mortensen -

He plays double bass in jazz trios there on Saturday nights. We became friends and started talking about recording a few songs. A while later he brought in 5 guys and a bunch of instruments and recorded with us on ‘\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/catalogue\/albums\/jl002-8-ensembles-in-1-bit\/\"\u003e8 Ensembles in 1 Bit\u003c\/a\u003e’ in March 2015.  Quickly after this project, some plans on a complete album came about, with music from composers that he grew up listening to, and some of his own compositions.\r\n\r\nIn November of 2015, two days were picked, and we rolled back into the stage at MCO in Hilversum, The Netherlands, with a Merging HAPI and analog mixing boards, carbon fiber cables and top-notch mics. Today we are proud to present you ‘Raízes’. Roots in Portuguese. Not only does this title reflect the content of the works but it is also a symbol of the sound of Breno’s earthy and flowing double bass. Together with singers like Laura Polence and Lillian Vieira this makes a great listen for a laid-back summer evening with the vibes and colors of the Brazilian landscapes in mind.

He wrote them in his youth, during the summers he spent vacationing with his brothers and sisters on various islands in Houtskär, the Finnish archipelago off the southwest coast of Finland. Sibelius loved these islands, and the three trios we include in this recording were eventually named after two of his favorite islands, as well as the coastal town of Lovisa, where his Aunt Evelina had a house.1 Given their natural talents, the young Sibelius siblings formed a trio. Janne2 played the violin, his sister Linda played the piano, and his brother Christian played the cello. Given the family musicians at hand, it was natural for Sibelius to write piano trios for their mutual enjoyment.\r\nThe young Sibelius wrote his Havträsk Trio in A Minor (JS 207) during the summer of 1886, during his first vacation after beginning his studies in music composition. It feels like we hear everything Sibelius learned in class, experimenting as he was, but now not under his teacher’s watchful eye! Movement one begins bombastically, balanced by the three lighter movements which follow. The Andantino second movement gives voice to some of Sibelius’ most beautiful melodies, followed by the whimsical and virtuosic Scherzo third movement which reminds me a little of Mendelssohn. Sibelius finished the piece with a simple melody which culminates into a surprisingly passionate dance.\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\nViolinist \u003cstrong\u003ePetteri Iivonen\u003c\/strong\u003e, pianist \u003cstrong\u003eJuho Pohjonen\u003c\/strong\u003e and cellist \u003cstrong\u003eSamuli Peltonen\u003c\/strong\u003e founded \u003cstrong\u003eSibelius Piano Trio\u003c\/strong\u003e and catapulted to success on the European concert stage.

He wrote them in his youth, during the summers he spent vacationing with his brothers and sisters on various islands in Houtskär, the Finnish archipelago off the southwest coast of Finland. Sibelius loved these islands, and the three trios we include in this recording were eventually named after two of his favorite islands, as well as the coastal town of Lovisa, where his Aunt Evelina had a house.1 Given their natural talents, the young Sibelius siblings formed a trio. Janne2 played the violin, his sister Linda played the piano, and his brother Christian played the cello. Given the family musicians at hand, it was natural for Sibelius to write piano trios for their mutual enjoyment.\r\nThe young Sibelius wrote his Havträsk Trio in A Minor (JS 207) during the summer of 1886, during his first vacation after beginning his studies in music composition. It feels like we hear everything Sibelius learned in class, experimenting as he was, but now not under his teacher’s watchful eye! Movement one begins bombastically, balanced by the three lighter movements which follow. The Andantino second movement gives voice to some of Sibelius’ most beautiful melodies, followed by the whimsical and virtuosic Scherzo third movement which reminds me a little of Mendelssohn. Sibelius finished the piece with a simple melody which culminates into a surprisingly passionate dance.\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\nViolinist \u003cstrong\u003ePetteri Iivonen\u003c\/strong\u003e, pianist \u003cstrong\u003eJuho Pohjonen\u003c\/strong\u003e and cellist \u003cstrong\u003eSamuli Peltonen\u003c\/strong\u003e founded \u003cstrong\u003eSibelius Piano Trio\u003c\/strong\u003e and catapulted to success on the European concert stage. When three international soloists of this caliber unite to form a chamber music ensemble, the results are predictably electric. These three friends love playing together, and this love is easy to hear in their concerts and in their recording.\r\n\r\nAs a proud Finn and as a representative of the Finnish government, I salute Sibelius Piano Trio for their talent and join them in celebrating the 100th Anniversary of Finland’s independence in 2017.

It is probably less well-known that he also learned to play the cello and horn as a youngster. His mother seems to have greatly enjoyed her son’s horn playing. It is therefore no great surprise that he started work on the composition of his Horn Trio just a few months after his mother passed away in 1865. He spent the summer of that year at the holiday home of his great supporter and advocate Clara Schumann, near Baden-Baden in the Black Forest, where he could find the peace and inspiration he needed in order to compose. Two years later, he took his friend Albert Dietrich to the spot where the theme of the Horn Trio’s first movement had occurred to him. “I was out walking one morning and when I arrived at this spot the sun started to glow; the theme came to me in an instant.” The first and third movements are to some degree nostalgic in nature and the work as a whole contains a number of references to the composer’s childhood. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Challenge Classics","offers":[{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739109699908,"sku":"CC72745-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739109732676,"sku":"CC72745-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739109765444,"sku":"CC72745-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739109798212,"sku":"CC72745-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739109830980,"sku":"CC72745-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":57309994746180,"sku":"CC72745-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57335967154500,"sku":"CC72745S1417","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/CC72745.jpg?v=1790488881"},{"product_id":"cd90f01-quintetto-a-fiato-del-900","title":"Quintetto A Fiato Del '900","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe encounter of already affirmed musicians at important italian institutes and having a common interest for chamber repertory, brought about the creation of the 'Wind Quintette of the Nineteen Hundreds'.\u003cbr\u003eBenefitting from the collaboration of Maestro G.

Terry Riley doesn’t limit his music within a final double-bar but allows it to keep on growing – he’s already composed more music for us to play together. As a quartet, we’ve found new energy and growth through the experience of performing Terry’s quartets off-book, by memory. As musicians, we’ve found an inspiring example – Terry has the strength to follow his own path balanced with the humility and  curiosity of an eternal student. For our 25th anniversary festival, we are focusing on Terry’s music and honored that Terry and Gyan will be joining us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike so many worthwhile endeavors, this album began with a friendship. Del Sol violist Charlton Lee first met guitarist Gyan while playing in an ensemble led by the composer\/bassist Gavin Bryars. “I’d been wanting to find more opportunities to play with Gyan ever since we met,” Charlton explains. “And with Terry’s 80th birthday on the horizon it seemed a perfect time to commission a new piece for all of us to play together.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the other dimension of this album, we had long been aware of Stefano Scodanibbio’s awesome abilities as a trailblazing double-bass virtuoso, we had our first chance to perform his music thanks to Gyan.

He has performed with Zakir Hussain, Lou Reed, John Zorn, the Kronos Quartet, Iva Bittova, the Bang on a Can All-Stars, the San Francisco Symphony, the Philadelphia Chamber Orchestra, and his father, the composer\/pianist\/vocalist Terry Riley.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTerry Riley Composer and performer Terry Riley is one of the founders of music’s minimalist movement. His early works, notably “In C,” pioneered a form in Western music based on structured interlocking repetitive patterns.

He came to prominence in the 1980s, premiering solo contrabass works by Brian Ferneyhough, Iannis Xenakis, Salvatore Sciarrino, Giacinto Scelsi, Gerard Grisey and others. His bass technique was so inventive that Luigi Nono used the indication “arco mobile à la Stefano Scodanibbio” in the score of Prometeo.
