Andrea Tarrodi: Four Elements
The only way to understand her work is to experience it. And this release is an excellent place to start.
Grazyna Bacewicz: Music for Strings a Must-have
The Primus Chamber Orchestra directed by Lukasz Blaszczyk turn in some tremendous performances. This is music they care about. And that dedication comes through in the recordings.
Henze: Nachtstücke und Arien worth exploring
Henze's music isn't easy to perform -- or to listen to. These artists provide a compelling reason to make the effort, though. And for the intrepid listener, the rewards are great.
Michael Gielen's Zemlinsky recording a welcome reissue
But this release isn't about the sound, it's about the performances.
Gorecki Concerto-Cantata Welcome Addition to Repertoire
Antoni Wit leads the Warsaw Philharmonic with authority and provides sympathetic readings for these works.
