Ernst: Complete Music Vol. 3

Opis

Ernst: Complete Music Vol. 3Opis:Product Description Heinrich Wilhelm Ernst (181265) was one of the leading musicians of his day, a friend of Berlioz, Chopin, Liszt and Mendelssohn, and for Joseph Joachim the greatest violinist I ever heard'.

But the popular encore pieces by which Ernst is remembered today represent only a fraction of his output: this third CD in a series of seven presenting all his compositions for the first time shows the full range of his creativity and charm. The Élégie sur la mort d'un objet chéri is written in his most moving and melancholy vein, and the Airs hongrois variés push the virtuoso violin to its absolute limits.

Between these extremes lie the lyricism of the Pensées fugitives, the inventiveness of his treatment of two Halévy operas and the high spirits of his fantasy on a Strauss waltz.

The first two volumes in this series have been received with glowing critical approval: Vol. 1 earned an Editor's Choice in Gramophone and in Fanfare Robert Maxham praised Vol. 2 for its exceptional notes by Mark Rowe [and] stunning performances of works both familiar and unfamiliar by violinist Sherban Lupu and pianist Ian Hobson'.

Review This CD contains no fewer than four world-premiere recordings, while the two remaining works are seldom encountered on disc or in the recital room. As before, the players are the fine Romanian born violinist Sherban Lupu, in whom Ernst's prodigiously demanding music finds a committed and brilliant advocate , and his engagingly flexible and supportive collaborator , the pianist Ian Hobson. Highly recommended. --IRR, Apr'13Autor:Sherban Lupu:Ian HobsonNośnik:Audio CDPłyt:Język: Data wydania: 2012Waga: 0.13 gramWysokość: 0.4 cmSzerokość: 4.9 cmDługość: 5.6 cmUWAGA: Kupując produkt na tej aukcji zgadzasz się na wydłużony termin realizacji wysyłki (10-14 dni roboczych).
