There is one organ in the world that is still in the same state in which Couperin designed it (except for restoration), but nobody ever recorded Couperin’s two great organ masses using this instrument – up to now. James Tibbles, paladino’s pride as an Early Music expert, went all the way from Auckland (New Zealand) to Rozay-en-Brie (France) to produce what will for a long time be the state-of-the-art recording of Couperin’s masterpieces. pmr 0020 (2 CDs) couperin the complete organ masses

Walter Auer, Vienna Philharmonic’s Principal Flutist, joins Christopher Hinterhuber and Martin Rummel for Hummel’s trio “Schöne Minka”, based on a Russian folk song. Mr Hinterhuber gained worldwide recognition for his recording of Hummel’s “Oberon’s Magic Horn” and proves again his competence for early 19th century virtuoso piano music, while Martin Rummel draws Hummel’s cello sonata from the shadow into light.

It is only logical that paladino music celebrates these two dates with a release of the Mosaïques playing Wölfl, and a special bonus track features a previously unknown movement for string quartet by the birthday boy. As if all this was not enough yet, all four players use instruments by the Viennese luthier Franz Geissenhof (1753–1851), allegedly the “Viennese Stradivari”, that have been restored especially for the occasion of this recording.

new 2012 / 13 When, in early 2009, I founded paladino music, I had a vision but not an entirely clear goal. Now, more than three years later, I am happy to say that paladino music has become the realization of my dream. paladino music is a small, yet global player for high-end classical music productions, and we provide a forum for recordings that are not necessarily “mainstream” yet nevertheless uncompromised in quality. We have facilitated the realization for a number of dreams of my valued colleagues and friends and I still hope to be able to open doors for projects that just wait to be done by great musicians. I am proud and happy to present you with this first issue of a paladino CD catalogue, and I hope that you – our valued customers – and I have a long journey together ahead of us, discovering many musical and human treasures that neither you nor I dream of today. Very sincerely yours,

By separating words and music it becomes clear that Schubert does not illustrate Müller, but provides a completely different view on what must have been an incredibly avant-garde text at the time. Xaver Hutter, who not only played but was Mozart in the award-winning movie “Ich hätte München Ehre gemacht”, is now Wilhelm Müller while Rummel and Shetler are Schubert. A new view on something that was thought to be comfortably familiar.

Soon after founding paladino music, I discovered that my passion lays beyond making great classical music available to a wider public. But what now? Orlando Paladino as one of three main characters in most fairy traditions and a very special, slightly foolish character seemed the ideal addition to my original idea of the “paladin” (protector) of artists and their art. On orlando records, I shall present you with the most unexpected yet touching, surprising, amusing, relaxing and entertaining ways of making music. I am very proud that our first release on our new label has not only one, but a cohort of 20th century icons: Christian Ludwig Attersee and his friends Hermann Nitsch, Markus Lüpertz, Bernd Jeschek, Gerhard Rühm and many others. Wait what we will present you with in the future!
