Intimate Voices

Intimate Voices (2006) more music like this

performed by David Finckel (cello), Emerson String Quartet, Eugene Drucker (violin), Lawrence Dutton (viola), Philip Setzer (violin)
composed by Carl Nielsen, Edvard Grieg, Jean Sibelius

While there are those who would agree along with the Boston Herald that "when arguments about the greatest living quartet begin, one choice remains non-controversial: the Emerson Quartet," there are those who might amend their assertion to read "the greatest living American quartet. Because while it might be persuasively asserted that there are ...

performed by Emmanuel Pahud (flute), Jonathan Kelly (cor anglais), Jonathan Kelly (oboe), Radek Baborák (french horn), Sabine Meyer (clarinet), Stefan Schweigert (bassoon), Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Simon Rattle (conductor)
composed by Carl Nielsen

While not for everyone -- those who think modernist music should be painful and pessimistic need not apply -- this disc coupling Carl Nielsen's Flute Concerto and Clarinet Concerto along with his Wind Quintet will appeal to fans of the Danish composer's unique brand of optimistic modernism. As superlatively played by flutist Emmanuel Pahud and ...

Nielsen: Aladdin Suite; Pan and Syrinx; Saga Deam; Maskarade Overture; Helios Overture

Nielsen: Aladdin Suite; Pan and Syrinx; Saga Deam; Maskarade Overture; Helios Overture (2005) more music like this

performed by South Jutland Symphony Orchestra, Niklas Willen (conductor)
composed by Carl Nielsen

In his orchestral music, Carl Nielsen's three concertos and six symphonies take pride of place as his most masterful essays, yet several of his shorter pieces have become well known and quite regularly recorded as filler on CDs of the larger works. Such works as the Helios Overture, Op. 17; the Overture and Prelude to Act II from the opera ...

Sibelius, Nielsen: Violin Concertos

Sibelius, Nielsen: Violin Concertos (1988) more music like this

performed by Cho-Liang Lin (violin), Esa-Pekka Salonen (conductor)
composed by Carl Nielsen, Jean Sibelius

These were stunningly fine performances in their time, and they remain stunningly fine performances nearly 20 years later. At the time he made these recordings in 1986 and 1987, Cho-Liang Lin was best known as a Mozart player, that is, as an elegant but ultimately ephemeral lightweight, and Esa-Pekka Salonen was best known -- if he was known at ...

Nielsen: Concertos for clarinet, flute & violin, etc. (1997) more music like this

performed by Arve Tellefsen (violin), Frantz Lemmser (flute), Ib Jarlkov (drums), Kjell-Inge Stevensson (clarinet), Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra, Herbert Blomstedt (conductor)
composed by Carl Nielsen

American-born, Swedish-raised conductor Herbert Blomstedt loves the orchestral music of Danish composer Carl Nielsen so much that he's recorded his complete symphonies twice -- first in stereo in the mid-'70s with the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra for EMI and then again in digital in the late '80s with the San Francisco Symphony for Decca. But ...

Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring; Nielsen: Symphony No. 5

Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring; Nielsen: Symphony No. 5 (2004) more music like this

performed by Richard Hawley (clarinet), William Platt (drums), Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Paavo Järvi (conductor)
composed by Carl Nielsen, Igor Stravinsky

Paavo Järvi may be the real thing, may be that all-too-rare real thing: the great conductor. His recordings over the past decade have always shown insight, strength, and innate musicality, and his later recordings with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra for Telarc show a growing maturity of interpretive depth. But while Järvi's 2004 recording ...

Carl Nielsen: Orchestral Music

Carl Nielsen: Orchestral Music (2006) more music like this

performed by Danish National Symphony Orchestra, Thomas Dausgaard (conductor)
composed by Carl Nielsen

Much of the music on this disc is unknown outside Denmark, but perhaps this superb recording by the Danish National Symphony Orchestra under Thomas Dausgaard will change that situation. Listeners in Anglophone countries tend to know Carl Nielsen through his symphonies, weighty and formally ambitious; his lighter music is represented mostly by the ...
