Aus der Sammlung des Musikinstrumentenmuseums der Universität Leipzig:
Zvi Meniker - Hammerflügel von 1828/29 der Leipziger Firma Tröndlin
Die meisten Pianisten und Musikliebhaber heutzutage wissen, daß die Klavierwerke klassischer Komponisten wie Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven und Schubert für Instrumente geschrieben sind, die sich vom modernen Konzertflügel stark unterscheiden. Es ist jedoch nicht sehr bekannt, daß auch die erste Generation romantischer Komponisten ihre Werke für ein Klavier geschrieben hat, welches - außer im Tonumfang - von einem modernen Flügel sehr weit entfernt war.
Am auffallendsten ist der klare, helle Ton der früheren Instrumente sowie ein Timbre, das sich durch den Tonumfang hinweg verändert: vom durchsichtigen, läutenden Diskant über einen runden und klaren Tenor zum volltönenden, aber zugleich noch klaren und nicht sehr schweren Baß. Das Ergebnis: Chopins wohlgeformte Begleitungenwerden belebt, ohne die Melodien zu überwältigen; der Gestaltung Chopins wird getreu gefolgt. |

Christmas Music
Subcollection: PianoWarum es gut ist, alte Weihnachtslieder neu zu hören
Wenn sich Schneeflöckchen leise rieselnd ans Fenster setzt, die Glocken süß erklingen und am Baum die Lichter brennen, dann ist - so verheißen es die Lieder - Weihnachten. Üblicherweise hören wir Weihnachtslieder als Klangkulisse auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt oder in der Schnäppchen-Ecke im Kaufhaus. Verkaufsstrategie ist hier: weichgespülte Melodie. Doch spätestens am Nikolaustag haben wir diese Hintergrundsmusik satt.
Auf der Raumklang-CD „Engelslicht und Dornenschatten“ mit neunzehn ausgewählten Weihnachtsliedern kann und muss man hinhören. Die zum Teil altbekannten Lieder kommen uns dabei merkwürdig neu zu Ohren. Indem Christine Maria Rembeck ihnen nachlauscht, die Melodie nur in kleinen Nuancen verändert, einzelne Textpassagen herausgreift und sie durch ihre eigene Klavierbegleitung neu interpretiert. Engelsgleich berührt uns der Gesang Christine Maria Rembecks, eingebettet in das breite Klangsprektrum des Klaviers und ergänzt durch die warmen Celloklänge Emilia Gliozzis.
Lieder für eine stille Weihnachtszeit

Subcollection: OboeIn this album, the Belgian oboist Joris Van den Hauwe performs a number of French compositions for oboe from the 19th and 20th centuries.
This recording includes some of the most important works of French music for oboe and piano. Some were written for student examinations at the Conservatoire National Supérieure de Paris. Others were dedicated to former teachers, for example, Camille Saint-Saëns's Sonata to ‘Monsieur Louis Bass, hautbois- Premier Solo de la Société des Concerts du Conservatoire et de l'Opera' (tracks 11, 12 and 13). The ‘Sarabande et Allegro' by Gabriel Grovlez (tracks 14 and 15) and the ‘Fantaisie Pastorale' by Eugène Bozza (track 7) were both dedicated to the then highly acclaimed oboist Louis Bleuzet (1874-1941), also a teacher at the Paris Conservatoire. Grovlez noted in his score: ‘A mon Ami Louis Bleuzet, Professeur au Conservatoire National de Musique de Paris'. The link between composers and performers was apparently very strong; these works are among the jewels of chamber music.
The oboe sonata (1947) by Henri Dutillieux (tracks 4, 5 and 6) is a jewel, as well, though the composer, born in 1916, thought otherwise. He disavowed this composition, along with other early works. Dutillieux dedicated this sonata to Monsieur Pierre Bayeux, also a teacher at the Paris Conservatoire. Francis Poulenc dedicated his two sonatas on this album (tracks 1, 2 and 3 and 16, 17 and 18) to Sergei Prokofiev and Manuel de Falla. It is a conscious departure from a program following a timeline of the dates of the compositions. The reason for this is to present the music on the album as though in a concert, in a musical progression. The album begins, for example, with the most recent work. |

Romantic Period
Subcollection: PianoThe trumpet in actual practice: sooner serves the goal rather than art. That may explain why the major Romantic composers ignored the trumpet as a solo-instrument in the 19th century, although the technical possibilities of the instrument had increased enormously due to the invention of the valves. In the orchestra literature, the trumpet was always given the role of signal-horn; the versatile musical possibilities remained unutilised for a long time.
The collection of composers on this CD nevertheless wrote beautiful music, which gave the trumpet the opportunity to demonstrate itself in the role of sensory and subtle soloinstrument. The trumpet concertos of Beethoven, Mendelssohn or Strauss that were never composed are somewhat compensated with this pieces of music by less known composers. |

Subcollection: PianoDuo Stoica
Andrea Stoica, piano
Razvan Stoica, violin
Compiling a new CD is quite a job. On one hand musicians like to display their prowess and tackle less know repertoire however on the other hand the repertoire should also fit with the expectations of the listeners. This is also the case with this CD from Duo Stoica. On this CD Duo Stoica has striven to compile a CD that combines well known pieces with lesser known works in a program displaying a similar atmosphere.
Razvan performs these works in the way that only Razvan can, with fire, enthusiasm and full of life. The lesser known virtuoso works are also brought to life with the same virtuosity and passion. It is the diversity of these works combined with Razvan’s virtuoso reading that makes this CD unique. |

Pyotr Ilyich TCHAIKOVSKY (1840-1893)
The Seasons, Op. 37bis
Children’s Album, Op. 39
From the liner notes by Luca Di Giulio: “ [...] The Seasons are full of a melancholy lyricism, of Slav melodies, but there is no display of virtuosity as an end in itself. Each piece portrays a scene or atmosphere typical of the month whose title it bears. The composer acts as an attentive observer in the twelve pages of the album: although his involvement is not strictly connected to the activities narrated, Tchaikovsky uses the titles of the pieces as a pretext to talk about the universal themes of the life of man: joy, sadness, prayer, love, despair, boldness, hope. [...]
The twenty-four pieces of the Children’s Album took shape from 13th to 16th April 1878 in Kamenka in Ukraine, on his return from a trip to western Europe which followed the tragic epilogue to the marriage with Antonina Milyukova. The inspiration for this cycle probably comes partly from the Capricious Sophie’s Album, a nineteenth-century children’s publication which told stories of dolls. The twenty-four miniatures which make up the collection are fascinating, often humorous, and satisfying to play and are influenced by Robert Schumann. |
