With El arte de fantasía, Andrew Lawrence-King and his Harp Consort have once again put together an album that is attractive to hear even as it introduces audiences to an esoteric repertoire.

Gabriela Montero plays Chopin, Falla, Ginestera, etc. [Includes Bonus CD]

Gabriela Montero plays Chopin, Falla, Ginestera, etc. [Includes Bonus CD] (2005) more music like this

performed by Gabriela Montero (piano)
composed by Alberto Ginastera, Alexander Scriabin, Enrique Granados, Franz Liszt, Frédéric Chopin, Gabriela Montero, Manuel de Falla, Sergey Rachmaninov

Improvisation at the piano in the classical music medium is as old as the piano itself, although one wouldn't know it to the extent that it has found representation on recordings. The improvising of Spanish composer Isaac Albéniz was captured on wax cylinders in 1910, and Sergey Rachmaninov's intense improvisation on Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. ...

Sacred Bridges

Sacred Bridges (2005) more music like this

performed by King's Singers, Sarband
composed by Ali Ufki, Ali Ufkî / Claude Goudimel, Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, Jewish Traditional, Salomone Rossi, Sarband

It is the presence of the always innovative King's Singers that will draw buyers to this CD, but the album equally represents the efforts of the German-based ensemble Sarband. With a partly Turkish membership, Sarband has launched the idealistic project of making music that incorporates features of Near Eastern traditions as well as those from the ...

The Essential Joshua Bell

The Essential Joshua Bell (2005) more music like this

performed by Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, Jean-Yves Thibaudet (piano), Joshua Bell (violin), Paul Coker (piano), Samuel Sanders (piano), Takács String Quartet
composed by Edwin Grasse, Ernest Bloch, Ernest Chausson, Felix Mendelssohn, Fritz Kreisler, Gabriel Fauré, Johannes Brahms, Pablo de Sarasate, Sergey Prokofiev, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

The Essential Joshua Bell is really more a snapshot of Bell's 1990s recordings that attempts to capture the essence of his playing than a "must-have" album. These are all from his days at Decca, before he moved to Sony Classical and started doing more crossover recordings, so the selections are standard violin repertoire items, many familiar -- ...

Sibelius: Cantatas (2003) more music like this

performed by Ellerhein Girls' Choir (choir, chorus), Estonian National Male Choir (choir, chorus), Estonian National Symphony Orchestra, Paavo Järvi (conductor)
composed by Jean Sibelius

Labeled a disc of Sibelius cantatas but more evocatively described in the liner notes as a collection of patriotic works for choir and orchestra, this release focuses on a part of the Sibelius repertory that performers have shunned for decades. These pieces represent not the darkly introspective Sibelius but rather the big, nationalistic, ...

The Essential Sibelius (2006) more music like this

performed by Anna Kreetta Gribajcevic (viola), Anne Sofie von Otter (mezzo-soprano), Bengt Forsberg (piano), Dong-Suk Kang (violin), Erik T. Tawaststjerna (piano), Folke Grasbeck (piano), Harri Viitanen (harmonium), Helena Juntunen (soprano), Jaakko Kuusisto (violin)
composed by Jean Sibelius

This gargantuan 15-disc set is immodestly billed as The Essential Sibelius, and with the inclusion of all the symphonies, most of the tone poems, much of incidental music, many of the songs, plenty of the chamber music, lots of the choral music, and tons of the piano music, it would be hard to argue that the billing isn't accurate. Of course, some ...

Ives Plays Ives (2006) more music like this

performed by Charles Ives (piano)
composed by Charles Ives

Charles Ives did not approach recording as a means of preserving his playing for future generations. It satisfied three practical and rather private functions: so that he could hear his own music played back to him, as a compositional assist to help transcribe variant readings of works in progress, and as a way to demonstrate to performers how he ...

composed by Arthur Benjamin, Dmitry Kabalevsky, Dmitry Shostakovich, Ernest Bloch, Fartein Valen, Flausino Vale, Igor Stravinsky, Jean Sibelius, Julián Aguirre, Pablo de Sarasate, Sergey Prokofiev

For most listeners, the great thing here will be the 1952 recording of Sibelius' Violin Concerto with soloist Camilla Wicks accompanied by Sixten Ehrling leading the Stockholm Radio Symphony. An American born in Long Beach, CA, of Norwegian stock, the young Wicks was so deeply, passionately, and completely under the skin of the concerto that a ...

performed by Erin Headley (lironi), Erin Headley (viola da gamba), Maxine Eilander (harp), Milos Valent (viola), Milso Valent (violin), Stephen Stubbs (chitarrone), Stephen Stubbs (guitar), Teatro Lirico
composed by Arcangelo Corelli, Carlo Farina [composer], Giovanni Battista Granata, Giovanni Paolo Foscarini, Giulio Caccini, Johann Caspar Horn, Lucas Ruiz de Ribayaz, Maurizio Cazzati, Stephen Stubbs, Teatro Lirico

Despite the severely modern appearance of this 2006 ECM New Series album, from the abstract cover art to the booklet's somber black and white landscape photos, this is really a collection of early music by Arcangelo Corelli, Giulio Caccini, Maurizio Cazzati, and other less familiar composers of the Baroque era. Stephen Stubbs and his brilliant ...
