Of the myriad piano concertos composed in the second half of the nineteenth century all but a handful are forgotten. The survivors are played with a regularity that borders on the monotonous—the ubiquitous Tchaikovsky No 1, the Grieg, Saint-Saëns’s Second (in G minor), the two by Brahms and, really, that is just about all there is on offer. Pianists, promoters and record companies play it safe and opt for the familiar. Even a masterpiece can become an unwelcome guest, especially when subjected to an unremarkable outing by yet another indifferent player, as happens so frequently today.
Primarily a renowned music critic and conductor and composer of ballets, Constant Lambert wrote very few choral works. Summer’s Last Will and Testament is an extensive cantata of stylistic diversity and emotional power. Completed in 1935, this setting of writings by the poet Thomas Nashe has strong claims to being one of its composer’s finest works. Despite attracting little attention at its premiere, Malcolm Arnold called it “one of the undiscovered treasures of the English choral repertoire”. This benchmark recording by the English Northern Philharmonia and David Lloyd-Jones is a first-class demonstration of orchestral and choral brilliance. RECORD OF THE YEAR, THE INDEPENDENT GRAMOPHONE CRITICS’ CHOICE PENGUIN GUIDE ROSETTE ‘A masterpiece buried for far too long’ (The Guardian) ‘One is very reluctant at the conclusion to disturb the silence by standing up and switching off the CD player’ (CDReview) ‘Nothing short of a triumph. With the bittersweet Aubade héroïque as makeweight, no disc makes a better case for Lambert’s importance’ (BBC Music Magazine)
The new St. Luke Passion , from Greek composer Calliope Tsoupaki, is a dualistic masterpiece. The Deeply religious composer found her inspiration in the icon that features on the cover of this CD.
The Planets became one of the most popular and widely recognised musical works of the 20th century. Holst himself conducted the LSO in two early recordings of his masterpiece. Sir Colin Davis's blazing performance, recorded over three evenings in June 2002, was one of the classical releases of the year.
This masterpiece of Irish dance, music and song takes you on a journey to ancient Ireland and a time of myth and legend.
