Bach: Weihnachtsoratorium, BWV 248 [SACD]

Bach: Weihnachtsoratorium, BWV 248 [SACD] (2007) more music like this

performed by Bernarda Fink (alto), Christian Gerhaher (bass), Christine Schäfer (soprano), Gerald Finley (bass), Werner Güra (tenor), Arnold Schoenberg Choir (choir, chorus), Concentus Musicus Wien, Nikolaus Harnoncourt (conductor)
composed by Johann Sebastian Bach

If this 2007 recording of Bach's Christmas Oratorio was the only one you were to hear, you would likely be well satisfied. Nikolaus Harnoncourt knows the work from long experience, his first recording dates from 1973, and he knows not only how to balance the soloists, chorus, and orchestra but how to balance the festive, the reflective, and the ...

composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

In 2006, to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the composer's birth, the Salzburg Festival set itself the task of producing all 22 of Mozart's operas, and this recording of highlights from Le nozze di Figaro is a result of a live performance. Nikolaus Harnoncourt's reading of the score is marvelously nuanced; it's clear that the performance ...

A Goethe Schubertiad

A Goethe Schubertiad more music like this

performed by Christine Schäfer (soprano), Graham Johnson (piano), John Mark Ainsley (tenor), Michael George (bass), Simon Keenlyside (baritone), London Schubert Chorale (choir, chorus), Stephen Layton (conductor)
composed by Franz Schubert

There are many supremely beautiful volumes in Graham Johnson's Schubert edition -- Fassbaender's, Popp's, Ameling's, Hampson's, Bostridge's -- but this Goethe Schubertiad is as supremely beautiful as the best of them. Of course, Goethe always brought out the best in the passionate young composer and his Goethe songs are among the greatest of ...

Schubert: The Complete Songs, Vol. 32

Schubert: The Complete Songs, Vol. 32 (1999) more music like this

performed by Ann Murray (mezzo-soprano), Catherine Wyn-Rogers (mezzo-soprano), Christine Schäfer (soprano), Christoph Pregardien (tenor), Christopher Maltman (baritone), Daniel Norman (tenor), Graham Johnson (piano), Jamie MacDougall (baritone)
composed by Franz Schubert

Any volume of Graham Johnson's Schubert edition that has one of the numerous settings of Matthisson's Der Geistertanz is a good volume. And that this volume starts with the men of the London Schubert Chorale belting out the slightly inebriated 1816 setting from the D. 494 is a great start to what proves to be a great volume in the series. How ...

composed by Christine Schäfer / Eric Schneider, George Crumb, Henry Purcell, William Shakespeare

Christine Schäfer is an artist with a unique sense of style, which comes through unmistakably on Apparition. First is the cover of Schäfer in a white gown standing with a dinosaur skeleton winding around her like a miniature roller coaster would. Then there's the fact that she and pianist Eric Schneider mix songs by Henry Purcell and George Crumb, ...

composed by Franz Schubert

With songs like Der Einsame (D. 800), Der Wanderer an den Mond D. 870, the three Shakespeare settings (D. 888, 889, and 891), and the four Mignon Lieder (D. 877), this volume of Graham Johnson's Schubert cannot miss. And it doesn't: with baritone Richard Jackson's lonely but cheerful Der Einsame and Der Wanderer an den Mond, tenor John Mark ...

It's a man's, man's, man's, man's volume of Graham Johnson's Schubert edition: songs for tenors, baritones, male chorus, and songs for men, about men, and to men. It's a great, great, great, great volume. John Mark Ainsley is one of the best tenors in England and is suave, strong, and sensitive with a tiny little catch in his voice. His Willkommen ...
