Mark John McEncroe, who started his musical training in his late 30's, had always exhibited a varied, profound interest in music – one that led him to work as a major music label manager over the course of two decades. No doubt that it was partially this section of his professional career which formed the basis of his personal compositional language. Unimpeded by the constrictions of a musical academic career, he developed a style which is unapologetically concrete and evocative.

Genre: Classical Soundtrack / Label: CapriccioNR

The Symphony No. 1 in D minor op. 9 belongs to Dohnányi’s early years of success. Among all the influences of the late Romantic tradition, that by Brahms’ music can be discerned here once more. From it, Dohnányi forms a kind of early Neo-Romanticism that can be viewed as a continuation of the 19th century while avoiding the Expressionist, sprawling violence of the beginnings of Modernism in the 20th century. Reminiscent of Mahler and Strauss is the sovereign treatment of the large orchestra, in which many details stand out, making a major contribution towards the quality of the work. The Symphonic Minutes op. 36 was written in 1933 in the context to compose a Hungarian dance game. With this release Capriccio starts a new Edition with recordings of these still less known but powerful Music from the hungarian Composer Ernst von Dohnanyi.

In his latest portrait album, Munich composer Enjott Schneider once again reveals new and fascinating interrelationships between classical and contemporary music, and between the Western and Far Eastern traditions. Two of the works deal directly with two of the central figures in the history of Western music: Raptus. Die Freiheit des Beethoven investigates the meaning of freedom and the contrasts between the heroic style of Beethoven’s youth and the cryptic works of his later years. Mozart Ascending for Oboe and Orchestra reflects on Mozart’s unfinished Oboe Concerto KV 293 and the otherworldly nature of the Salzburg master’s genius.

Four composers, four works, four guitars: Four,Quaternaglia’s first album for GuitarCoop, is the result of a vast renewal in the quartet’s repertoire following the group’s 25thanniversary, in 2017. Since Forrobodó (2000), Quaternaglia had never failed to record works by Brazilian composers; in fact, the opposite is true: all four of the group’s most recent albums were dedicated entirely to the music of its homeland. This profound dive into Brazilian culture is reflected in the group’s discography: a total of 25 new recordings of works by Estércio Marquez Cunha, Lina Pires de Campos, Paulo Bellinati, Egberto Gismonti, Sergio Molina, Paulo Tiné, Rodrigo Vitta, Douglas Lora, Radamés Gnatalli, Marco Pereira, Almeida Prado, João Luiz and Chrystian Dozza, as well as arrangements of works by Villa-Lobos, Ronaldo Miranda, Ernesto Nazareth and Tom Jobim.

Genre: Classical / Label: Naxos

The Iranian conductor and composer Alexander Rahbari grew up with and trained in traditional Persian music with its most influential maestros. His eight symphonic poems, My Mother Persia, of which this is Volume 1 of 2, are full of melodies, rhythms and improvisations in these traditional styles, brought to life with the colours of modern orchestration. The first of these is an emotional violin concerto in which the soloist plays the role of the Nohe Khan, usually a tenor who sings in traditional Persian style at various religious ceremonies. Mother’s Tears refers to a gathering of orphans and to Rahbari’s own experiences of tragedy, contrasting with a subtext of mischief in Children’s Prayer.
