Martha Argerich and Friends: Live from the Lugano Festival, 2006 (2007) more music like this

performed by Alissa Margulis (violin), Dora Schwarzberg (violin), Gabriela Montero (piano), Gautier Capuçon (cello), Jorge Bosso (cello), Karin Lechner (piano), Lida Chen (viola), Lilya Zilberstein (piano), Lucia Hall (violin), Martha Argerich (piano)
composed by Alfred Schnittke, Claude Debussy, Felix Mendelssohn, Friedrich Gulda, Robert Schumann, Sergey Ivanovich Taneyev

All too often, chamber music collaborations between established, accomplished soloists do not yield favorable results. Merely putting together virtuosic musicians does not mean they will play well together. Such is not the case with this recording of Martha Argerich's 2006 festival in Lugano. This album represents an amazing synthesis of well ...

This CD brings together a collection of choral works recorded by the Dale Warland Singers between 2001 and 2004, the group's final year. The pieces were all written in the twentieth century (if one counts the year 2000 in the reckoning) and are united by theme -- they all use texts from the Christian tradition -- and by tone -- all are subdued and ...

Dedicated to Victims of War and Terror [Hybrid SACD] (2001) more music like this

performed by Constantine Orbelian (piano), Moscow Chamber Orchestra, Constantine Orbelian (conductor)
composed by Alfred Schnittke, Dmitry Shostakovich

Shostakovich's Eighth String Quartet (and the Chamber Symphony Op. 110a that was arranged from it) is arguably one of the composer's most impassioned works. It is filled with raw emotions, ranging from despair and isolation to fierce aggression. Constantine Orbelian and the Moscow Chamber Orchestra certainly provide a capable performance of the ...

composed by Alfred Schnittke, Ed Bennett, Elena Langer, Marjan Mozetich

Russian violinist Roman Mints has made a specialty of playing new music, and on this album he plays three concertos written around the turn of the millennium. The title of Canadian composer Marjan Mozetich's Affairs of the Heart gives hint of the work's unabashedly Romantic idiom. Mozetich began his career steeped in modernism, but later turned to ...

Schnittke: Cello & Piano Works (2007) more music like this

performed by David Geringas (violoncello), Tatjana Geringas (piano)
composed by Alfred Schnittke

The works of composer Alfred Schnittke are, to this day, largely misunderstood and underappreciated. Often inappropriately labeled as avant-garde, Schnittke's harmonies and tonal languages are indeed complex and at times quite dissonant. However, if appreciated from more of an emotive standpoint, his works are generally quite approachable. This ...

composed by Alfred Schnittke, Galina Grigorjeva, Per Nørgård, Toivo Tulev, Urmas Sisask

The Grammy nomination bestowed upon the Baltic Voices 2 album in 2004 pointed to the continuing fascination the Eastern European brand of minimalism held for American audiences. It also showed that this predominantly sacred variety of minimalism did not depend solely on the unique biography and outlook of Arvo Pärt, for it is the music of Pärt's ...
