About this product
SOMM Recordings announces the launch of a major six-volume series of Franz Xaver Scharwenka's transcriptions of Beethoven Symphonies featuring the tag debut of the Tessa Uys and Ben Schoeman Piano Duo. Formed in 2010, the Duo began their in-concert exploration of Scharwenka's four-hand Beethoven transcriptions in 2015 and now bring that experience to disc for the first time. Volume 1 includes the premiere recording of Scharwenka's piano duet transcription of Symphony No.3, the ever-popular Eroica, and Debussy's two-piano arrangement of Robert Schumann's Six Studies in Canonic Form. As Robert Matthew-Walker's booklet notes reveal, Scharwenka had a direct line to Beethoven, having been taught by Franz Kullak, who was tutored by Carl Czerny whose own teacher, in turn, had been Beethoven himself. A composer of no mean stature in his own right, Scharwenka's transcriptions were once widely admired, making masterpiece symphonies available to every home with a piano. Possessing, says Matthew-Walker, Inchsignificant qualities which are often overlooked todayInch, his Eroica transcription receives ardent, eloquently persuasive championing by Schoeman and Uys. Scharwenka wasn't alone in exploiting new developments in piano technology. Robert Schumann's Six Studies in Canonic Form made use of the then novel 'pedal-piano' (a standard piano with an additional bass pedal-board) even as he was looking back stylistically towards his idol, Bach. Debussy's arrangement for two pianos adroitly accommodates Schumann's original to Inchrescue this fine music from the obscurity of the pedal-piano repertoire.Inch Born in Cape Town and a Royal Academy of Music Associate, Tessa Uys has an impressive reputation as a concert and broadcasting performer, appearing at major venues throughout the world. Her multi-prize-winning South African compatriot Ben Schoeman also has a busy international profile

Boxed set containing deluxe CD and double colored vinyl LP pressing. 2017 , the 14th studio album from the Irish quartet. Songs of Experience was produced by Jacknife Lee and Ryan Tedder with Steve Lillywhite, Andy Barlow, and Jolyon Thomas. The album is intended to be a companion piece to U2's previous record, Songs of Innocence (2014). Whereas it's predecessor explored the group members' adolescence in Ireland in the 1970s, Songs of Experience thematically is a collection of letters written by lead vocalist Bono to people and places closest to his heart. The personal nature of the lyrics reflects a brush with mortality that he had during the album's recording. Includes the single You're the Best Thing About Me.
