About this product
Soprano Robyn Allegra Parton and pianist Simon Lepper perform an album inspired by the burnished gold leaf and sensual contours of Klimt's Art-Nouveau 'Vienna Secession' movement, with music reflecting that aesthetic including songs by Richard Strauss, Alma Mahler, Johanna Müller-Hermann, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Alban Berg and Joseph Marx - a composer about whom Lepper recently curated a series at Wigmore Hall. These are works that occupy a fascinating realm between the romantic and the modern, so that sensuous, brooding and dark-hued atmospheres are blended with rich textures and radiant harmonies. Described by Opernwelt as 'captivating, astonishing, overwhelming', award-winning British soprano Robyn Allegra Parton specialises in this repertoire, and Simon Lepper is one of the finest song accompanists in the world.

Winner of the Strings Final of the BBC Young Musician in 2020, Coco Tomita's stunning debut album features a varied program, including works by Enescu, Poulenc, Boulanger, Hubay, Ravel and Debussy. The choice of repertoire for her debut recording was entirely Tomita's own InchHaving complete freedom over what I wanted to share with the world was amazing, and put simply, I love all the pieces I've chosen deeply. They've resonated with me over the years, and I found really interesting connections between every piece and composer. The program also relates to key figures of the 20th century, especially female violinists I hugely respect.Inch Those violinists include Ginette Neveu, the driving force behind Poulenc's Violin Sonata, and Jelly d'Aranyi - taught by Jeno Hubay, whose Carmen is one of the pieces on the album that Tomita played to such acclaim during the BBC Young Musician. She is particularly fascinated by the Poulenc and Ravel Sonatas, which are at the heart of the album Inchthere's just so much to explore and express.Inch
