Bass-baritone Florian Boesch, top-class Lied-singer, blooms in a Schubert programme (finest orchestrations by Brahms and Webern) with the renowned Concentus Musicus, the Viennese orchestra now led by the talented Stefan Gottfried. Next to these sublimated pieces, the Concentus performs a finished version of the mysterious ‘Unfinished’ Symphony. A Scherzo by Schubert himself was completed by a composer (Nicola Samale) and a musicologist (Benjamin-Gunnar Cohrs) so that the result is faithful to the musician special expression. And Rosamunde’s Overture concludes this re-enactment: a moving experience and a touching journey through time!

Thomas Dausgaard, the enormously talented conductor, continues here with his quest for recording the mainstream symphonic repertoire with an orchestra, smaller than the usual today. His journey has become a considerable success. What one possibly misses in string sound "thickness" is more than well compensated for by the added transparency, and the almost chamber-music-type listening by the orchestral members.

Genre: Classical / Label: Verbier Festival Gold

From the instant that Thomas Quasthoff began his first Verbier Festival performance in 2003, the incomparable bass-baritone knew that he had arrived at his musical home. Nearly twenty years later, this sublime debut — an assortment of orchestrated Schubert lieder — opens a release that highlights Quasthoff’s incredible musicality against backdrops of instrumental accompaniment. Gustav Mahler’s ‘Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen’ (Songs of a Wayfarer), followed by J.S. Bach’s ‘Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen’ round out this highly-anticipated offering from Verbier Festival Gold.
Listen to the first pre-release track of Thomas Quasthoff singing one of Schubert’s most popular songs “Ständchen” from Schwanengesang, in a light, fluid and instrumentally colorful orchestral version by Jacques Offenbach. The world-renowned baritone releases an album of orchestral songs, performed at Verbier Festival, on October 28.

Genre: Classical / Label: BIS

This boxed set brings together Thomas Dausgaard’s and the Swedish Chamber Orchestra’s cycle of Brahms’ symphonies, originally released as four separate volumes. Each symphony is coupled with carefully selected works to provide a well-rounded idea of the composer’s orchestral output. Favourites such as the two concert overtures are included – the laughing and the weeping one, to paraphrase Brahms himself – as well as the much loved Haydn Variations (on a theme which most likely isn’t by Haydn at all…).
