About this product
This series marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Anton Bruckner, which falls in 2024. It's dedicated to Bruckner's symphonies, all recorded in new transcriptions for organ by Hansjörg Albrecht. The third recording was made on the impressive organ of London's Westminster Cathedral. A bonus track on each volume will be a brand new composition for organ that references Bruckner the composer. Two or three volumes will be released each year, with the project reaching it's conclusion in 2024. Hansjörg Albrecht is - besides Ton Koopman, Masaaki Suzuki, Martin Haselböck and Wayne Marshall - one of the few artists who are regularly present internationally both as conductor and concert organist. He is considered a musical innovator and lateral thinker without fear of contact. As a conductor, he consistently follows his own paths - between archive and new creation and with an extensive repertoire from Bach to Messiaen - and with his organ transcriptions he has established himself as a specialist among the virtuosos of his instrument. Hansjörg Albrecht is Artistic Director of the Munich Bach Choir & Bach Orchestra (founded in 1954 by the legendary Karl Richter). He also has a longstanding collaboration with the San Carlo Opera House in Naples, the Chamber Orchestra Moscow, the Staatskapelle Weimar and the CPE Bach Choir Hamburg. As conductor and organist he performs worldwide in the major music centers such as London, Paris, Vienna, Berlin, Prague, Rome, Moscow, Tokyo and New York and regularly collaborates with internationally renowned artists and orchestras. He also conducts opera productions in Naples and Dubai, among others, as well as ballet projects with the dance companies of Marguerite Donlon and Boris Eifman. Album Tracks 1. Psalm 150 Wab 38 2. Meditation on the Slow Movement of Bruckner's Second Symphony (InchBruckner-Fenster IiiInch FÜR Orgel, 2021) 3.

Matthias Racz, together with the Stuttgarter Kammerorchester (Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra) and their director Johannes Klumpp, presents works for bassoon and orchestra, like the Concerto for bassoon by Jean Francaix, who wanted to write a piece with serious music, but without gravity.

![Clein Recreation-Grosses Orchester Graz Hofstetter - Cello Concertos - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/e0e6ac42-ed73-43dd-8416-ca726333eda6.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Only two authentic cello concertos by Joseph Haydn have survived the first in C major, composed in the convoluted manner of the early 1760s, and the second in D major in the classical style of the 1780s. This live concert recording featuring Natalie Clein and the recreation - Großes Orchester Graz under the direction of Michael Hofstetter immerses the listener in the soundscape of the Haydn period. Playing on a 1777 Guadagnini, Natalie Clein decided to reflect the spirit of Haydn's sound world by playing on gut strings rather than steel. She also chose to use a lighter bow than usual. She improvised the cadenzas, which is entirely in keeping with the performance practice of Haydn's time. In doing so, this recording melds both historical and living performance practices. Born in the United Kingdom, Natalie Clein came to widespread attention at the age of sixteen when she won both the BBC Young Musician of the Year and the Eurovision Competition for Young Musicians in Warsaw. Described by The Times as 'mesmerising' and 'soaringly passionate', she has built a distinguished career, regularly performing at major venues and with orchestras worldwide. The recreation - Großes Orchester Graz brings together musicians from many European nations and unites many guest musicians across borders. Album Tracks 1. Cellokonzert NR. 2 in D, Hob. Viib 2 2. Cellokonzert NR. 1 in C, Hob. Viib 1 3. Satz Aus Der Sinfonie NR. 13 in D, Hob. I Adagio Cantabile
