A disc of ground-breaking new works for oboe by the exciting, young oboist James Turnbull
The repertoire on this release has been chosen in a deliberate attempt to assemble works from the past 30 years by British composers that demonstrate the great contrasts possible with the oboe. There are pieces that emphasize stillness and meditation while others focus on the raw emotions of anger and grief.

The title of the present album PAGANINIANA comes from Milstein's Paganiniana and hints to the content of the programme: virtuoso violin pieces in the style of Paganini, perfectly performed and recorded by the two virtuoso players.
"Mario HOSSEN with magnificent creativity interprets the famous violin concert of Paganini with superb sound, clear tone and vigor" - this is part of the review in the Austrian "Oberosterrichiche Nachrichten", where the violin player is called "a Paganini reincarnation".
Mario Hossen finished the Plovdiv High School of Music and then furthered his studies in the Vienna Music Academy. The performer graduated with award of the Austrian Ministry of Culture for outstanding artistic achievement. He then began his brilliant concert appearances in Europe, America and Asia. The violinist is holder of many awards at international competitions and festivals in Europe. He often has concert performances with the pianist Ludmil PETKOV (a graduate of the Pancho Vladigerov State Academy of Music in Sofia, who afterwards perfected his piano mastership with Prof. Rudolf Kehrer in Weimar, Germany). Both artists already have their first CD released together, which has won recognition among wide cultural circles in Europe .

The CD of the famous Bulgarian pianist and composer Emile Naoumoff, includes eight mazurkas, written by Chopin throughout the years, some of which are much preferred by the performers for the specific melodic and metro-rhythmical character of the music. To them add preludes, waltzes, and other popular and attractive for the listener works by the great Polish composer, patriot, dreamer, rebel, romantic and innovator. The moods are melancholic and nostalgic, at times sad, even gloomy, at times varied with outbursts of joy and hope. Emile Naoumoff interprets each of the miniatures in a manner of his own, imbuing them with a feeling, with tenderness and intimacy. His performance impresses with a masterful switching between the tempos, fine nuancing and elegance. The recording highlights Naoumoff as an excellent interpreter of Chopin's music, as a master of expressiveness who has achieved a unity between the author's text and his own reading. Thus the pieces sound in a good style and acquire a character different |

Having graduated from the State Academy of Music in Sofia and specialised with world-known pianist Yvonne Lefebure in Paris, after which she furthered her studies at the Juilliard School of Music (New York), Pavlina Dokovska is among the most celebrated Bulgarian pianists enjoying a brilliant concert career. She has included in the CD her interpretations of three popular works by Robert Schumann, an author who holds a significant place in the pianist's repertoire. Dokovska possesses keen sensitivity and is particularly skilled at colouring the sound, all of these qualities bringing her close to Schumann's emotional style and idiom. For this reason the CD fascinates the listener with the passion of his music, its emotionality and multitude of musical images, which the pianist models out with the precision and security of a master who has long overcome the technical problems (the pieces require specific piano technique) and has deeply penetrated in the musical text. Over this there appear the brilliant Schumane |

Pianist Ludmil Angelov offers very interesting and original interpretations of some of Chopin's little known early works. As a performer who constantly looks for new opportunities for his artistic realisation, Ludmil Angelov demonstrates in this recital release his abilities as pianist of a style of his own - with original conceptions and analyses of each of the performed works, each interpreted in an individual manner, fascinating with the softness and flexibility of tone, melody and harmony. His virtuosity, brilliance, warmth and lyricism which impress the listener, combine with a multi-coloured palette of sound nuances. All this is in confirmation of the successful career of the pianist, first-prize winner of the World Piano Masters International Competition of Monte Carlo, 1997, who has toured extensively on the world's major stages. The present release received the GRAND PRIX DU DISQUE FRÉDÉRIC CHOPIN award in Warszaw, 2000. |
