I am normally not a fan of these types of releases, but it looks like this one may have a nicely broad repertoire, making it a possible entry place for someone who wants to learn more. It's a little pricey for someone who doesn't know if they are interested, but may be ideal for someone who does, but doesn't know where to start.

€25 for the set.  That's crazy cheap for this cycle.  I'm glad I didn't wait.

Well how about this

The Soviet Experience: Quartets by Shostakovich and his Contemporaries, Volume IV
Shostakovich Quartets 13–15 + Schnittke Quartet 3
Pacifica Quartet
Fourth in this 4-volume set of Shostakovich Quartets plus quartets by other Soviet composers
Projected release: October 2013

I should cover my bases by clarifying: that listing comes from Cedille's website. The Naxos website says that the Schnittke Quartet is No. 6, Op. 35, rather than No. 3. We'll see what it really is in a month...

Great! I was only joking around before. It's always great to see Sony continue to reissue their catalog in affordable box sets.

Christmas seems to be approaching... New Naïve 2-fers (Lugansky's Rakhmaninov & Liszt, Sokhiev's Tchai 5th & Proky Peter & Wolf, Piau's Handel & duos with Mingardo, Minkowski's Handel, Alessandrini's Monteverdi 6th book & 1600)

QuoteThe idea for In 27 Pieces: the Hilary Hahn Encores began to take shape when Hilary noticed that new encore pieces were not being showcased as much as other types of contemporary works. Shorter pieces remain a crucial part of every violinists education and repertoire, and Hilary believed that potential new favorites should be encouraged and performed as well. What is unique about the project, though, is the incredible depth that Hilary Hahn has gone to to discover new works. She explored the music of all the composers before personally contacting them and ran a blind online contest with open submissions to find the 27th composer.

Composers on this recording:
Franghiz Ali-Zadeh (1947) - Impulse            Somei Satoh (1947) - Bifu            Du Yun (1977) - When a Tiger Meets a Rosa Rugosa

The Ormandy Tchaikovsky box is a mix of Columbia and RCA recordings, so it's nice to see the merger bearing fruit.

So many interesting recordings! :) The Mosaiques and Hantai boxes for one - my only regret is that Naive made the "Alessandrini box" contain only 2 discs...
The Minkowski/Fliegende Holländer, Christie's Belshazzar, Rousset's Phaéton, the Falvetti.

A shopping bag to envy! :o :D

Is the Debussy by Goerner on a period instrument by any chance?

There might well be a big box of Alessandrini to come, as well.

Seems to be a modern piano. See in the promo video Goerner speaks & plays Debussy:

Minkowski's Sons of Meyerbeer: Wagner & Dietsch

http://ionarts.blogspot.com/2013/06/minkowskis-sons-of-meyerbeer-wagner.html


Miscellany: Afterwards I signed autograph books behind stage because the pieces-of-work that are the singer-chasers wouldn't believe me that I didn't sing in the performance, despite the fact that I had stood outside the stage door with them, five feet away, for ten minutes (waiting to see a non-singer friend). But I carried a  few scores under my arm (which composer Kai Nieminen had given me to look at) and a glass of bubbly in my free hand. So when the fourth person asked, for their husband in a wheel chair, and to have a picture taken also, I finally broke down and acceded to the demands.

Only shilling because I have the smaller Brilliant reissue sets (chamber, songs, and solo piano) that make up most of this big box, and I really like them.  In the case of the Collard solo piano, I love it.  Maybe some of you don't own any of those and would have interest.

Jumping the gun again, because I see no contents or mention on the Warner Classics site:


Claudio Arrau: RARITIES 1929-1951 (Warner, 3cd)

ASIN: B00FJZQS9I [not yet visible at Amazon US]

Edit: I didn't realize that EMI releases had not all been folded into the Warner Classics site.  So probably no need for me to re-post the Warner behemoth release schedule.  Still, not much info:
Quote from: EMI Green ZoneThe  young Claudio Arrau made records in Berlin and London which reveal the lasting qualities of his pianism: a sovereign technical command, a deep patience and a gravitation towards weighty matters, enriched by his study with 'philosopher pianists' such as Busoni and Martin Krause, that resulted in these profound and impassioned recordings of Beethoven, Brahms and Chopin, most of which have not previously appeared on CD, and all of them newly remastered for this tribute to a master pianist of the 20th century.
