About this product
Like Chopin before him, and even more closely Scriabin, Rachmaninoff yielded to the temptation of writing his 24 Preludes, assembling this emblematic number in three stages. It began with a youthful work the famous Prelude in C-sharp minor. From this root, music deeply anchored in Russian soil, imbued with the Slavic soul to which the composer, later exiled, would remain forever attached, there would spring, a decade later, the Opus 23 set, followed seven years on by Opus 32. These Preludes are like images in an album that Jean-Baptiste Fonlupt invites us to leaf through, sonic paintings whose authentic colours of memory he poetically restores. Far from his native land, which he left for good, Rachmaninoff would never write this way again.

![Jean-Baptiste Fonlupt - Stravinsky, Ravel, Prokofiev: Ballets - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/ddd2fda0-0f15-4fff-b767-23581b7d839d.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Against the backdrop of it's decors, ballet offers itself up as a spectacle, arousing admiration and enchantment. In the early twentieth century, from the Palais Garnier to the Bolshoi, from the Châtelet to the Mariinsky, the shimmering colors of the orchestra were often combined with the innovative choreography of the Ballets Russes. The music to which these ballets were danced, assigned to illustrious composers, could hardly be for piano, which was tolerated only to accompany the dancers in their rehearsal studios. But is that really the case? If so, then why are there so many piano versions made by the composers themselves, alongside the orchestral ones? Jean- Baptiste Fonlupt answers that question here with dazzling imagination and virtuosity.
![Bach,J.S. / Bernardini / Worner - Cantatas & Arias for Bass - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/bc9f2a2f-3d84-4a35-8d59-76300b77aa42.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
After releasing all the Brandenburg Concertos and Orchestral Suites, Zefiro joins forces with authoritative singer Dominik Woerner to investigate the intriguing relationship between bass voice and reed instruments in Bach's sacred cantatas. InchJohann Sebastian Bach's son Carl Philipp Emanuel tells us of his father's talent as a singer 'He had a good penetrating voice of wide range and good singing style.' It is therefore not surprising that the three church cantatas for solo bass are among his most exquisite and personal vocal works. Singing voice and instruments enter into a special relationship in these pieces. The dense yet sensitive polyphony is filled with a warmth and tenderness that seems to bring us closer to Bach, who is otherwise so 'hermetically closed'. The 'I' voice in the poems of cantatas BWV 56 and 82 becomes the composer's voice. Bach's solo cantatas are precious gems whose subtle beauties go straight to the listener's heart.Inch - Peter Wollny
