Giancarlo Vulcano - Vetro - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Norma Gloria was a popular Argentinian singer with a beautiful voice and a great love of the music of her homeland. Of particular interest was her fascination with the controversial Argentinian actress and singer, Libertad Lamarque. Ms. Gloria recorded this album in the early 1970's as a tribute to Lamarque. All selections have been newly remastered.

Two of Mozart's best-known wind concertos under the baton of Claudio Abbado are released together for the first time on vinyl. Emmanuel Pahud's recording of Mozart's Flute and Harp Concerto in C major, with harpist Marie-Pierre Langlamet and conductor Claudio Abbado, is a highly acclaimed performance. Recorded in 1996, this rendition showcases Pahud's elegant and expressive flute playing, characterized by a remarkably warm and full tone. Sabine Meyer's recording of Mozart's Clarinet Concerto in A major, also with the Berlin Philharmonic and Abbado, is a significant interpretation of this masterpiece. Recorded in 1998, Meyer performs the concerto on the basset clarinet, the instrument for which Mozart originally conceived the work, allowing for a deeper and richer tonal palette in the lower register. Meyer's rendition of the sublime Adagio is often highlighted for it's exquisite delicacy and deeply felt lyricism.
