Luciano Pavarotti Cavaliere di Gran Croce was an Italian operatic tenor who also crossed over into popular music, eventually becoming one of the most commercially successful tenors of all time. He made numerous recordings of complete operas and individual arias, gaining worldwide fame for the quality of his tone, and eventually established himself as one of the finest tenors of the 20th century, achieving the honorific title “King of the High Cs”.

Between 2003 and 2015, Ronald Brautigam recorded all of Beethoven’s music for solo piano – a huge undertaking resulting in a grand total of 15 highly acclaimed albums. Choosing to perform the works on the fortepiano, Brautigam began with a sonata cycle which caused one reviewer to talk of a challenge to ‘the very notion of playing this music on modern instruments, a stylistic paradigm shift.’ In 2010, after nine albums of sonatas, he went on to record the composer’s variations, bagatelles and other piano pieces – a staggering array of works ranging from a Bagatelle lasting 11 seconds to the monumental Diabelli Variations, and from a charming Rondo in C major composed by a 13-year old Beethoven, to what is often referred to as the composer's ‘Last Musical Thought’, an Andante maestoso dated 1826.

Herbert von Karajan was an Austrian conductor. He was principal conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic for 34 years. During the Nazi era, he debuted at the Salzburg Festival, with the Vienna Philharmonic, the Berlin Philharmonic, and during World War II he conducted at the Berlin State Opera. Generally regarded as one of the greatest conductors of the 20th century, he was a controversial but dominant figure in European classical music from the mid-1950s until his death. Part of the reason for this was the large number of recordings he made and their prominence during his lifetime. By one estimate, he was the top-selling classical music recording artist of all time, having sold an estimated 200 million records.

This gargantuan 35-disc set of Alfred Brendel's complete Vox, Turnabout, and Vanguard recordings released in late 2008, concurrent with his retirement from concert life, will be mandatory listening for anyone who reveres the Austrian virtuoso. When these recordings were made between 1955 and 1975, Brendel was at the start of his international career, and his performances here have a fire, energy, and a drama that his later recordings sometimes lack. Brendel devotees, however, may also find his performances lack the intellectual rigor of his middle period recordings and the poetic depths of his later recordings. Compare his demonic account of Mozart's Twentieth Concerto here, for instance, with his more elegant later account.

Al mondo ci sono persone che non riescono a immaginarsi il proprio fallimento. Appartiene a questa categoria anche la giovane Emma Russell, che alla fine del XIX secolo dice addio a suo padre in una stazione ferroviaria dell'Illinois, per andare a insegnare nell'Idaho, la Gemma delle Montagne. Di lei dicono che sia severa e che abbia occhi anche sulla nuca. Davanti a lei i colpevoli balbettano la verità e gli innocenti ricordano con gelida chiarezza le trasgressioni commesse. La sua rettitudine dà i brividi, però Emma sa anche suonare al pianoforte melodie allegre che fanno da sottofondo alle danze nei vari ranch. Il giovanotto che la accompagna con il violino, Thomas Sweringen, è il figlio di un uomo che ha trovato l'oro e ha avuto l'accortezza di investire i guadagni in proprietà terriere e nell'allevamento di bovini, invece di sparire quando l'oro è finito..

Ci sono sogni che teniamo in fondo al cuore per paura di realizzarli. Finché non riceviamo una spinta e ci convinciamo che non ha più senso rimandare. È così anche per Molly che, a trent'anni, si sente la spettatrice di una vita che non le appartiene più. Ma proprio quando sembra aver perso ogni speranza, le viene recapitato un pacco anonimo con precise istruzioni: contiene dodici buste, Molly dovrà aprirne una al mese ed esaudire le richieste che contengono. All'inizio, crede si tratti di un errore. O peggio, di uno scherzo bello e buono. Non ha tempo di dare retta a uno sconosciuto che crede di conoscerla meglio di chiunque altro. Eppure, fare un tentativo non costa nulla e così, mese dopo mese, busta dopo busta, comincia a seguire consigli e disposizioni: si libera del lavoro di cameriera che non l'ha mai fatta sentire realizzata, si lascia cullare dal rumore del mare in una giornata d'inverno, trova il coraggio di prendere lezioni di tango a Grenoble, una cittadina che, più della ville lumière, rispecchia il suo carattere..
