NEW RELEASE HIGHLIGHTS

July highlights on the harmonia mundi label include L’écrit du cri, an album of music inspired by the cries of street vendors featuring Dominique Visse and the Ensemble Clement Janequin (p.5). Hyperion offers up the latest Romantic Piano Concerto Series release featuring pianist Howard Shelley in works by Benedict and Macfarren (p.7). Worthy of special note are a reissue of Bach's St Matthew Passion with Philippe Herreweghe (p.4) and the launch of a new label, RCOC, with a rare Baroque opera

by Domènec Terradellas (p.9). On the non-classical front, we celebrate the launch of another new label, Dawn of Freedom.

The label's first release, Phat Jam in Milano, features jazz legend Archie Shepp (p.11). Singer Najma Akhtar collaborates with American guitarist and songwriter Gary Lucas on Rishte, a new album from World Village that fuses traditional Indian music with jazz (p.15). Of special note are four more SACD reissues of classic Blue Note jazz albums (pp.12-13).

Lazic plays Brahms & Schumann channel classics

Liaisons Vol.2 SCHUMANN Papillons, Waldszenen BRAHMS Klavierstücke Op.118

Dejan Lazic (piano) Channel Classics • CCS SA 27609

Hk23 85c@&^)(]T Price Code: A24 (Suggested Retail Price: $24.98)

SACD Hybrid/ Stereo & Multi-channel/ DSD Channel Classic’s Liaisons series releases are double-portraits. They combine two composers in order to explore more thoroughly their musical worlds, the way they inspired and what they were inspired by, as well as to find their common denominators and bring them closer to each other. This release connects early Schumann to late Brahms, with programmatic and non-programmatic pieces. It provides a fascinating, chronological insight into the world of the 19th Century Germany.

A desert-island reissue harmonia mundi

BACH St. Matthew Passion

Sibylla Rubens (soprano), Andreas Scholl (counter-tenor), Ian Bostridge (tenor), Werner Güra (tenor), Dietrich Henschel (baritone), Franz-Josef Selig (bass) Collegium Vocale, Philippe Herreweghe harmonia mundi • HMC 901676

Hk948 1c$&*%@VL Price Code: 3A18 (3 CD Set, Suggested Retail Price: $56.98)

Originally released November 1999 (HMC 951676 - 794881478620) Johann Sebastian Bach’s monumental St. Matthew Passion was first performed on Good Friday in 1727 at the St. Thomas Church in Leipzig. It is the largest single composition Bach ever wrote, both in terms of length and in terms of instrumental and vocal forces.

It requires two choruses, two orchestras, four vocal soloists for the arias and vocal soloists for each of the various character parts. Philippe Herreweghe’s 1999 recording of Bach’s masterpiece features a stellar cast and was a perennial catalog bestseller. This re-issue, sans a now-obsolete CD-ROM that was offered with its previous incarnation, will be welcome to Bach fans everywhere.

“It would be hard to imagine a more beautifully played and sung account of Bach’s St Matthew Passion than Philippe Herreweghe’s.”

— THE GUARDIAN

L’ecrit du cri Renaissance, 20th & 21st Century Songs

Hk948 1c(! *@?K Price Code: A19 (Suggested Retail Price: $19.98)

The Ensemble Clément Janequin has already explored the topic of ‘cries’ — Renaissance chansons built on a vast onomatopoeic repertory. Now, 28 years after their legendary Cris de Paris, the group returns to the genre. L’écrit du cri considerably expands the geographical provenance of the ‘cries’ performed — from Marseille to Valenciennes — and the program straddles periods and styles with a marvelous sense of wit and charm.

“The outstanding musicians of the Ensemble Clément Janequin bring a freshness of approach and a rhythmic vitality that place them at the forefront of the field.”

— GRAMOPHONE

Also available Les Plaisirs du Palais

“This outstanding recording captures the best of all aspects of early vocal music.”

Hungarian violin music WEINER Violin Sonatas

Hagai Shaham (violin) Arnon Erez (piano) Hyperion • CDA 67735

Aa34571c!& #%+U Price Code: A19 (Suggested Retail Price: $19.98)

Violinist Hagai Shaham returns with a new disc of music by Leó Weiner (1885-1960) — a much-respected national figure in Hungary, but one who never established the same level of international recognition as Bartók and Kodály. Weiner’s two violin sonatas are the focus of this disc. The first is reminiscent of the Brahms sonatas in mood and structure, but Wiener regarded the second sonata as one of his most important works. The remainder of this disc is centered on Weiner’s works based upon different kinds of Hungarian folk tunes.

July 2009

This recording by the Lay Clerks of Westminster Cathedral presents a full choral and instrumental celebration of the Mass for the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This festive performance is intended not as a reconstruction of a known occasion in the early seventeenth century, but as a sort of musical offering illustrating the complex liturgical structures becoming available in a period when the resources for the enrichment of the liturgy were growing steadily.

English Romantic concertos hyperion

The Romantic Piano Concerto, Volume 48 BENEDICT Piano Concertos MACFARREN Concertstück

Howard Shelley (piano) Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra Hyperion • CDA 67720

Aa34571c!& @)ZP Price Code: A19 (Suggested Retail Price: $19.98)

The piano concerto was popular in Victorian London and was often included in the typically mixed orchestral concert programs of the period. Julius Benedict’s concertos are firmly based on classical models, but they have hints of Beethoven, Mendelssohn and even Rossini in their occasional touches of compositional humor. Benedict’s second and third concertos are featured on this disc. Walter Macfarren had a long career as a piano teacher at the Royal Academy of Music.

His only extant work for piano and orchestra is the Concertstück. As always, Howard Shelley and his orchestra breathe new life into these forgotten works, which like all of the repertoire in this series, deserve rediscovery.

“We have learnt from Howard Shelley’s previous contributions to the series to expect brilliant and stylish playing, and he does not disappoint.”

Previously Available as CDA 66773 (034571167732) Deleted October 2003 This series explores the riches of French and English music from 1150 to 1450. The music for this recording features the songs of the trouvères. This repertoire is so large that a hundred recitals such as this would not encompass them. The songs describe things such as love-complaints, tales of erotic adventures in the countryside, debates in verse about matters of love, political lyrics, spinning songs, prayers to the Virgin and calls to join a crusade.

Songs of Scotland

Marie McLaughlin (soprano), Malcolm Martineau (piano) Hyperion • CDH 55336

Previously Available as CDA 67106 (034571171067) Deleted December 2007 The Scottish folksong repertoire is quite rich. The fusion of Celtic and Lowland cultures, the nation’s troubled history and an irreverent sense of fun mark many of the songs. What binds together these songs is the beauty of the melodies and the skill with which lyricists like Burns could match new or re-modeled words to traditional tunes. A selection of these are sung here by soprano Marie McLaughlin.

Previously Available as CDA 66700 (034571167008) Deleted May 2008 This recording is, in effect, a miniature history of the English keyboard concerto from its origins to the 1770s. Indeed the first item, the orchestral version of Handel’s Chaconne, is probably the earliest work for keyboard and orchestra. Other works featured in Paul Nicholson’s fascinating survey include concertos by Thomas Roseingrave, Thomas Chilcot, James Nares, Philip Hayes and James Hook.

DVORÁK Piano Trios

Guarneri Trio Prague Praga • PRD 250259

SACD Hybrid/ Stereo & Multi-channel/ DSD Just fifteen years separate Dvorák’s piano trios and all four were written before his fiftieth birthday. The early trios reflect his rediscovery of Czech folk music after emerging from his self-confessed Wagnerian ‘mad period.’ The grand F minor trio reflects Dvorák’s deep search for harmony between his German and Slavic passions, while the Dumky trio displays a lively, free and beautiful understanding of the Czech spirit. For over 20 years, Guarneri Trio Prague has been a tireless proponent of the slavic tradition.

File in: Jazz “I’ve been in regular contact with Django’s heirs for several years now, in the same way as I’ve been working with Angelo Debarre over quite some time.

Nevertheless, my solitary escapades, especially my trips to New York, gave me the chance to play with Brazilian musicians such as guitarist Romero Lubambo or Joyce and Yvan Lins, and this in turn gave rise to a daring wager that I harbored secretly for several months-that of bringing together the timeless melodies of a genius of harmony with the vivid rhythms of the Brazilian repertoire in the bossa nova and maracatu range. My meeting with guitarist Thierry Moncheny and percussionist Matthieu Guillemant, both Brazilian by adoption through their music and their extended stay in the country of the choro, simply reinforced my very real desire to record an album in this direction.” – Ludovic Beier

“Ludovic Beier has a spirited, adventurous style which strays into all kinds of byways.”

Choosing great compositions by Coltrane, Monk, Denzil Best and Kenny Dorham, Taylor assembled a great quintet fronted by Dave Burns and Stanley Turrentine, often adding Potato’s congas to the proceedings. The unique and varied arrangements and great playing pay tribute to the drummer’s exceptional song selection.

Interpretation varies according to the different schools and singers, who evoke three separate aspects of existence in love poems, bacchic songs and poems about nature. These may be used alternately, but they all express a single emotion: yearning for the beloved. Haffar’s musical and vocal skills blend introspection and sensuality and these three albums confirm him to be a master of the genre.

An excellent musician, he knows how to create a perfect fusion between music and dance, which is the secret of his great classical artistry. Manet has released more than 20 CDs, 4 DVDs and has written 3 books. He was the first Indian choreographer to perform in Opera de Paris in France and at the Grimaldi Theatre in Monaco for the Royal family, on the occasion of the first “Nijinsky” dance awards — a historic event in the world of dance.

File in: World / Africa / Senegal Sister Fa is Senegal’s Queen of hip-hop. But getting to the top wasn’t an easy road — for a woman to break through in an almost exclusively male field within a maledominated society, it was a long, hard journey. Struggle breeds compassion, and Sister Fa uses her international album debut Sarabah — Tales from the Flipside of Paradise to speak out against the injustices rampant in her native country. Warm, groovy and unmistakably African, her raps, in Wolof, Manding, Jola and French, roll elegantly over beats as well as traditional sounds (kora and djembe), delivering tracks far removed from rap clichés, and more influenced by 80s Old Skool hip-hop than current rap trends.
