The German-French composer Mark Andre (b.1964) is one of the most important representatives of New Music. His twelve "Miniatures" for string quartet were composed in 2014/17 as a commission from the Arditti Quartet, Bavarian Radio's "musica viva", the Festival d'Automne à Paris and the ProQuartet-CEMC, funded by the Ernst von Siemens Music Foundation. Andre created his organ work "Himmelfahrt" (Ascension), funded by the Siemens Music Foundation, in 2018 on behalf of the Evangelical Church in Germany. The orchestral work woher…wohin was written between 2015 and 2017 as a composition commission by BR's "musica viva" in conjunction with the Happy New Ears prize for composition from the Hans and Gertrud Zender Foundation. The live recordings of all three works are now being released in the CD edition of Bavarian Radio's "musica viva" concert series on BR-KLASSIK.

This exciting release from period ensemble Musica Fiata is a rare treat, featuring the work of composer Johann Hermann Schein (1586) and the heterogeneous collection of motets that make up his Cymbalum Sionium. Although Cymbalum Sionium has always attracted musicological interest, performances of most works within the piece have been very rare up until now. Schein’s melodic gifts, harmonic sensitivity as well as feeling for varied affects and great sense of structure enabled him to absorb an incredible range of musical influences, imbuing them with the freshness of a gifted young composer creating music which still moves us today.

David Bates directs La Nuova Musica in a pair of contrasting settings of Psalm 109. Handel's masterful and ambitious HWV282 was penned in 1707 during a youthful visit to Italy. Vivaldi's vivid and economical RV807 (his third Dixit Dominus) was long mistakenly attributed to Baldassare Galuppi; it probably dates from the early 1730s. Rounding out the programme is Vivaldi's dazzling motet for solo voice, "In furore iustissimae irae", featuring soprano Lucy Crowe.

Recently discovered and to date unreleased recordings represent the last major project of Musica Antiqua Praha, which was during the fifteen years of it's existence (1982-1997) the most eminent Czech early music ensemble focused above all on the performance of early and middle Baroque music. The album comprises compositions that were part of the archives of the Prague Order of the Knights of the Cross with the Red Star, recorded by Musica Antiqua in 1996 in a world premiere. The Order's heritage includes more than three centuries of musical tradition, documented by a rarely preserved music archive. The album features music by four composers from the 17th and 18th century. Pavel Klikar, the founder and artistic director of Musica Antiqua Praha, is the major figure inextricably associated with the ensemble, whose inspirational leadership helped to create an important seedbed which brought forth a whole generation of early music performers.

Al publicar el presente volumen del Códice de Santa María la Real de las Huelgas, es un deber imperioso agradecer a las monjas de dicho Monasterio cisterciense su admirable y abnegada colaboración. El Códice de las Huelgas es el único manuscrito polifónico medieval que aún se conserva en el lugar de origen y es guardado por la misma orden que lo recopiló e interpretó fervorosamente desde hace siete siglos. Es también el único manuscrito importante que nos queda de la música religiosa medieval castellana y las monjas actuales, sucesoras en cierto modo de aquellas que dieron vida al Códice, accedieron con toda amabilidad y entusiasmo a nuestro deseo de que su presencia de hoy diera vida a los cantos de antaño bajo los mismos techos y con los mismos hábitos que lo hacían sus fieles antecesoras.

Gracias, a ellas, el «planctus» por la muerte de Alfonso VIII de Castilla, el noble fundador del Monasterio, ha resonado de nuevo ante la tumba del rey. Es ésta una página de la Historia de España que las monjas del Císter, dulcemente, casi sin darse cuenta, ibann resucitando siete siglos después, ante el testimonio mudo, pero de oídos bien despiertos, de unos micrófonos instalados en la clausura.

El trabajo de estas admirables monjas ocupa la primera cara de nuestro disco. Ante la imposibilidad de introducir instrumentistas en la clausura, las ejecuciones instrumentales y polifónicas han sido interpretadas por especialistas profesionales. Pero, en honor de las monjas cistercienses de las Huelgas, sólo voces de mujer resuenan en esta grabación, y éstas procuraron impregnarse previamente de la pura religiosidad que el Códice, las monjas y las Huelgas mismas respiran mansamente.

Jednou z dominant letošního edičního plánu Supraphonu je světová premiéra historicky tak nepřehlédnutelného díla, jakým je korunovační opera Sub olea pacis největšího českého barokního skladatele Jana Dismase Zelenky (1679-1745). K velkolepé pražské korunovaci habsburského panovníka Karla VI. českým králem roku 1723 se připojili i pražští jezuité, když si u nejslavnějšího žijícího českého skladatele a navíc svého odchovance objednali velkolepou hudební fresku. Skladatel jejich přání s radostí vyhověl a dokonce své dílo přijel do Prahy nastudovat, a můžeme dnes říci, že se mu jeho tvůrčí pokus bezezbytku vyvedl. Více než hodinu a půl trvající skladba je jedním z nejlepších plodů barokní estetiky a navíc - po formální stránce - jednou ze čtyř úplně dochovaných tzv. školských her.

This disc from the Bogotá, Colombia-based ensemble Música Ficta jumps on the fast-moving bandwagon carrying Baroque music from Latin America. It is billed, with unnecessary specificity, as covering "Feast and Devotion in High Peru of the seventeenth century," but like other releases in this general repertoire it ranges widely, including music from other Latin American countries and from Spain itself, and covering music of several centuries. The subtitle is a bit misleading but not seriously annoying, for all this music traveled quite a bit in its time, and all the lands that are individual countries today were simply part of New Spain.
