About this product

Five string quartets by Carl Reinecke from all the phases of his career, from it's beginnings to his old age, are extant. He himself played the first violin in his father's quartet and in this way very early became acquainted with an extensive quartet repertoire. When he began composing his first quartet, he not only was familiar with the contributions to this genre by Mozart and Beethoven but also knew Schumann's brand new Quartets op. 41. Reinecke pays homage to Schumann's music in particular in the lyrical moments of his Quartet No. 2. He composed the Quartets Nos. 3 and 4 during his years as the conductor of the Gewandhaus Orchestra. No. 3 surprises us with it's expansive key plans, which also make us sit up and take notice in his subsequent quartets and undermine the cliché of a epigone who rigidly adhered to convention and academism. In his last contribution to the genre, the Quartet No. 5, he remains true to his style. This work perhaps sounds somewhat less like Schumann and somewhat more like Brahms, whose music Reinecke very much admired. Album Tracks 1. The String Quartets 2. String Quartet No. 2 Op. 30 in F Major 3. String Quartet No. 4 Op. 211 in D Major 4. String Quartet No. 1 Op. 16 in E Flat Major 5. String Quartet No. 5 Op. 287 in G minor 6. String Quartet No. 3 Op. 132 in C Major

Kuusisto, Pekka - Marchentanze   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

In the Autumn of 2021, the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra together with it's new chief conductor, Nicholas Collon, arranged a Thomas Adès festival in Helsinki devoted to the world famous composer's music in addition to works by other composers chosen and conducted by Thomas Adès (b. 1971). One of the highlights of the festival's program was the world première of Märchentänze in it's version for violin and orchestra performed by violinist Pekka Kuusisto, Adès' long-time artistic partner. This new album by the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra includes four recent and exciting orchestral works written by the composer between 2016 and 2021 in world première recordings. In addition to the Märchentänze, this album includes Adès' orchestral Hotel Suite from Powder Her Face, an adaptation based on the music from the opera through which Adès first made a widespread name for himself in the mid-1990s. The orchestral version of Lieux retrouvés, originally written for Steven Isserlis, could be described as a cello concerto in the spirit of Marcel Proust. Orchestral work Dawn was written for the 2020 London Proms for 'orchestra at any distance', due to the coronavirus pandemic. Adès' Dawn comes across as timeless music floating in a serene universe of beauty all it's own. Album Tracks 7. Lieux retrouvés (Orchestral Version)~II. La montagne 13. Märchentänze (Orchestral Version)~IV. 14. Dawn, Chacony for orchestra at any distance
