About this product
With his characteristic wit and quirkiness, Grammy-nominated Danish composer Poul Ruders has summed up his mission as a composer as being InchTo entertain, to enrich, and to disturb, not necessarily in that order.Inch Born in Ringsted, Denmark in 1949, Ruders achieved international fame with his opera The Handmaid's Tale (1996-98), a work whose aching tenderness, grotesque irony, despair and timeliness has established a permanent place in the repertoire. Ruders' own intuitive development as a composer has enabled him to create works which manage to be strikingly modern, yet avoiding any the clichés of European modernism, but above all, imbued with the power to speak to the emotions of an audience. The current program features works spanning 30 years, beginning with the elliptical Throne (1989) for clarinet and piano and two major chamber works, the Clarinet Quintetand Piano Quartet, dating from 2014 and 2016 respectively. The Rudersdal Chamber Players, founded in 2017 by violinist Christine Pryn, are the ideal interpreters for Ruders stylistically fluid scores, finding the classical InchrootsInch in works like the Clarinet Quintet (beautifully performed by Jonas Frølund, one of the most talented clarinet players of his generation in the world today) as well as the surprising intimacy of the Piano Quartet.

Jean-Marie Leclair was a master of fusing Italian and French idioms, conjoining the lyricism of the former with the dance momentum of the latter. Nowhere is this better exemplified than in his third book of violin sonatas. The sonatas in this album embody rich melodic beauty, drone and rustic elements - most vividly in the Tambourin of the C major sonata in which a hurdy-gurdy is employed- and demand tour de force virtuosity such as in the joyous Ciaccona of the G major sonata. De-scribed by Gramophone as 'technically and musically a marvel' (Naxos 8.572866), Adrian Butterfield completes his acclaimed traversal of Leclair's Violin Sonatas Books Nos.1-3. Album Tracks 1. Violin Sonata in E Major, Op. 5, No. 9 2. Violin Sonata in C Major, Op. 5, No. 10 3. Violin Sonata in G minor, Op. 5, No. 11 4. Violin Sonata in G Major, Op. 5, No. 12
