composed by Patrick Hadley, Philip Sainton

Previously released in 1993 and 1997, this double disc of late-late-late-Romantic works by neglected British composers Patrick Hadley and Philip Sainton may be the fairest presentation they have received: the generous, evenly balanced program represents their music well, and the fully engaged performances by Matthias Bamert and the Philharmonia ...

composed by Igor Stravinsky

First released on MusicMasters and Koch International Classics in the '90s, Robert Craft's Stravinsky recordings remain the preferred modern editions of the music. Not only was Craft Stravinsky's musical amanuensis for the last 20 years of his life, he later became a superb conductor in his own right and the combination in his mentor's music is ...

composed by Johann Sebastian Bach

By the time this performance of Bach's St. John Passion was recorded in 1996, the strict lines dividing the rigorously historically informed performance practice movement and more contemporary practices had sufficiently blurred to allow both approaches to be blended to excellent effect by the masterly conductor Stephen Cleobury. The sensitive but ...

Thomas Adès' 2004 version of The Tempest has been acclaimed as one of the outstanding operas of the new century, so it's a pleasure to have it available in such a fine recording, taken from the 2007 Covent Garden revival, featuring many of the principals from the premiere. Librettist Meredith Oakes has not only effectively distilled the play so ...

composed by Igor Stravinsky

Igor Stravinsky's contributions to the ballet genre almost single-handedly lifted it to the front ranks of musical forms in the twentieth century. From The Firebird, Petrushka, and The Rite of Spring through Apollo, Agon, and Orpheus, Stravinsky's ballets are milestones in the history of musical modernism, and thus the question is not "should one ...
