Stradivarius is very proud to present Antonio Vivaldi’s masterpiece in a new recording. Il Tempio Armonico rediscovers the deepest essence of The Four Seasons with a performance based on the original manuscripts and carried out 'a parti reali', with arpa doppia and harpsichord as continuo. The outcome is a performance that succeeds in giving back the original freshness, charm and grace of Vivaldi’s masterpiece.
The CD is enriched by two other Concertos by Antonio Vivaldi: Concerto Madrigalesco RV129 and Concerto in C major RV114.
Since its foundation in 1999, Il Tempio Armonico, led by Alberto Rasi, aims for authenticity in performance practice and to re-create music's original appeal and vitality. The musicians of the ensemble are enriched by playing with numerous world-renowned groups and soloists including T. Koopman, J. Savall, M. Huggett and G. Carmignola. |

In 2008 Bussotti visited Japan and gave seminars and composition lessons, also presenting an exhibition of his most significant pittografie (scores, drawings) at the Italian Culture Institute of Tokyo. These live recordings bear witness to the concerts that were organised in his honour: in which performances of 'indeterminate' or 'graphic' scores (typical of Bussotti) prevailed. |

The score of Anarca is the fruit of Battistelli's great passion for the writings of Ernst Jünger. Powerfully struck by the novel On the Marble Cliffs, the composer resolved to transform the book into an opera. Originally the work was supposed to be staged in Frankfurt but this project was put aside out of concern for the political ramifications of the adaptation of a writer that had been so close to the Nazi ideology. Here Anarca is proposed with two other pieces performed by the Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della Rai. The series Ricordi Oggi is enriched by Giorgio Battistelli's presence, now one of the most appreciated Italian composers. |

Paul Patterson’s Phoenix Concerto gives solo oboist Emily Pailthorpe the character of the mythical Phoenix Firebird itself: mercurial, sensuous, mesmerising and captivating.
Commissioned by David Bowerman and first performed in 2009, this is the world premiere recording. Patterson writes “The fire, passion and power of the Phoenix are very present in the outer movements of this piece, with the last movement filled with mesmerising dance-rhythms. The oboe’s unparalleled ability to recreate the feel of exotic birgsong is showcased in the opening cadenza and central slow movement.”
Alongside this new work is Vaughan Williams’ beloved Concerto in A minor for Oboe and Strings, composed for another great exponent of the oboe, Leon Goossens, in 1944. Although superficially a work of pastoral serenity and bucolic piping for the soloist, there are undercurrents that remind the listener that it was composed in wartime.
The Howells Oboe Sonata is another world premiere, here in a new orchestration by Benjamin Wallfisch for strings with harp, played by Hugh Webb. In its original incarnation (not heard until after the composer’s death in 1982, and with heavily orchestral piano writing) the work presented problems to its dedicatee, again Goosens, who said he had „serious reservations“.
Of this new arrangement, however, Pailthorpe says: “I feel liberated… I can float my sound over the breadth of the ECO strings, and the harp texture is wonderful...”. She adds: “The Howells and the Vaughan Williams, both written in the early 1940’s, arise from the ashes of World War II and, in this sense, they seem fitting to include on this “Phoenix” CD.
Founder member of acclaimed chamber ensemble Conchord, Emily Pailthorpe is a graduate of the Julliard School and the youngest ever winner of the Gillet International Oboe Competition. She made her solo Wigmore debut in 2004 and guests as principal oboe with several leading international orchestras. |
