Liszt: Totentanz; Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 2 [Hybrid SACD]

Liszt: Totentanz; Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 2 [Hybrid SACD] (2007) more music like this

performed by Arnaldo Cohen (piano), São Paulo Symphony Orchestra Choir, John Neschling (conductor)
composed by Franz Liszt

The vast majority of Brazilian-born pianist Arnaldo Cohen's discography is devoted to the music of Franz Liszt. There is good reason for this; his technique and approach to the instrument seem especially suited for the demands Liszt makes of pianists, from extreme subtlety and introspection to the bravura, ostentatious displays of power and ...

Bridge Across the Pyrenees [Hybrid SACD]

Bridge Across the Pyrenees [Hybrid SACD] (2006) more music like this

performed by Sharon Bezaly (flute), São Paulo Symphony Orchestra (OSESP), John Neschling (conductor)
composed by Francois Borne, Jacques Ibert, Joaquín Rodrigo

Israeli-born violinist Sharon Bezaly now lives in Sweden, where this recording was made, with a Brazilian orchestra and conductor (a grand-nephew of Arnold Schoenberg). The program is international as well, with entertaining liner notes presenting an instructive short history of the musical relationship between France and Spain. It is intriguing ...

Piano Concertos by Tchaikovsky & Medtner [Hybrid SACD]

Piano Concertos by Tchaikovsky & Medtner [Hybrid SACD] (2007) more music like this

performed by Yevgeny Sudbin (piano), São Paulo Symphony Orchestra (OSESP), John Neschling (conductor)
composed by Nikolay Medtner, Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky

Listeners who heard Russian pianist Yevgeny Sudbin's earlier recording of Rachmaninov's solo piano works knew he was an astonishing pianist with romantic temperament, superhuman technique, and, best of all, consummate taste -- but until they've heard this coupling of the first piano concertos of Tchaikovsky and Medtner, they'll have no idea how ...

Claudio Santoro: Symphonies 4 & 9; Ponteio; Frevo

Claudio Santoro: Symphonies 4 & 9; Ponteio; Frevo (2006) more music like this

performed by São Paulo Symphony Orchestra Choir (choir, chorus), São Paulo Symphony Orchestra (OSESP), John Neschling (conductor)
composed by Claudio Santoro

Claudio Santoro is not quite Brazil's best composer of European-style "classical" music -- there is, after all, Heitor Villa-Lobos -- but he is a very close second. Santoro's control of the harmonies and structures of classical music is perhaps more complete than Villa-Lobos and his ability to fuse those elements with the melodies and rhythm of ...

Francisco Mignone: Maracatu de Chico Rei; Festa das Igrejas; Sinfonia Tropical

Francisco Mignone: Maracatu de Chico Rei; Festa das Igrejas; Sinfonia Tropical more music like this

performed by Sao Paulo State Chorus (choir, chorus), Orquestra de São Paulo, John Neschling (conductor)
composed by Francisco Mignone

Like many artists in search of a national musical identity, yet chained to classical European models, Brazilian composer Francisco Mignone had considerable difficulty finding his own voice. The raw material of folk songs and dances from São Paolo and Rio de Janeiro were available to Mignone, and he used them to impressive effect in his lavish ...
