Залил для знакомых разную классическую музыку и делюсь тут ссылками, что бы возможно расширить круг потенциальных слушателей вечно-живой классики,
итак:
Й.Брамс, Концерт для скрипки с оркестром, исполняет Г. Шеринг / Brahms. Concerto for Violine with Orchestra, Henrik Szeryng
http://files.ariom.ru/3200450
Шеринг записал сольного Баха 2 раза - это вторая запись, сделанная на мой взгляд на пике его скрипичного и музыкального мастерства. Вообще Шеринг был очень непростая, загадочная, спорная и интересная личность.
"Центром золотого сечения" Сонат и партит Баха является "Чакона",

Цитата:
Anne-Sophie Mutter takes on dual roles of soloist and conductor in this new complete Mozart Violin Concerto collection, turning in performances of exceptional polish, vitality, and coherence. Mutter's virtuosity is never in doubt as she plays with full, confident tone and spirited energy. This, plus her stylish and wholly idiomatic interpretations remind us of just how brilliant and accomplished a performer she is - refreshing after last year's bizarrely self-indulgent Tchaikovsky concerto recording. Throughout this set Mutter places her prodigious talents and skills..
She's marvelous in the arching melodies of No. 5 (the slow movement is all serenity) and the vibrant rhythms of No. 3, while No. 4 has a harmonic richness that looks forward to Mendelssohn. Like Perlman before her, Mutter communicates her sheer pleasure in playing this music, though she avoids his tendency to pour on the schmaltz. The set offers a substantial bonus in the Sinfonia concertante, with violist Yuri Bashmet joining Mutter in a sparkling and tonally sumptuous rendition, worthy of comparison to Böhm's. The London Philharmonic plays handsomely under Mutter's direction, while Deutsche Grammophon's solidly focused recording nicely balances soloists and orchestra. This is a quintessential modern Mozart violin concerto collection..

Founded in London in 1996, Boys Air Choir is comprised of seven members, aged eight to sixteen years old. Each vocalist is carefully chosen from the choirs of such Cathedrals as St. Paul's, Salisbury and Westminster. Each boy attends school full-time, so all recordings and promotional activities take place during summer and Easter vacations. In the summer of 1999, they performed to a sold out crowd at the Tokyo Opera City Concert Hall.
Conner Burrows is now choir master for the prestigious Boys Air Choir, made up of eight top treble choristers from St. Paul's, Salisbury and Westminster Cathedrals. This choir was formed to be "the best quality boy's choir in the world". Conner is the feature soloist on this album recorded while he was a member of this choir and still had his pure treble voice. His has been called "the greatest treble voice in this century" by critics in Japan and his native England. Quoting from the fold-out in the album "Like crystal, shining in the sun, like tears falling from your eyes - the voice of this boy will make you believe that life is forever". His "Pie Jesu" - tracts number 2 and 7 are all this and more. If you love treble voices, you will love this album.

Цитата:
Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings amply demonstrates two principles: Some of the greatest ideas are essentially quite simple, and not everything popular is junk.
He originally wrote it as the second movement of a string quartet in 1936, but within two years arranged it for string orchestra. In this form, it became not only his most popular work, but also an unofficial American anthem of mourning, played after the deaths of Presidents Roosevelt and Kennedy.
The two versions, string quartet and string orchestra, make their own separate effect. The string quartet version, as you would expect, is intimate and occurs in the context of other movements. Not surprising for an artist with wide literary interests, Barber found initial inspiration in a passage from Vergil's Georgics describing how a rivulet gradually becomes a large river. Although the idea doesn't limit the Adagio's emotional meaning, you can see how it influences the overall shape of the work – a long arch beginning quietly, gradually building to an overwhelming climax, and winding down to a quiet end. Barber constructs the long-lined, spiralling theme from musical sequence – that is, a group of notes is repeated slightly higher (as in this case) or lower. Sequence is the most elementary form of variation, and most composers learn to use it sparingly. Barber builds an entire piece from it.
Composers like Aaron Copland, William Schuman, Roy Harris, and Ned Rorem – not all of them sympathetic to Barber's music in general – look at this work and shake their heads, wondering how he pulled it off. They fall back on phrases like "finely felt," "poetic," "nothing phoney," "a love affair." There's no real complication to the Adagio, no technique or unusual turn of harmony that holds the secret of its success. One cannot even pick one passage over another, any more than you can say one point makes the beauty of an arch. This is a masterpiece.

The Art of Fugue, for keyboard (or other instruments), BWV 1080
Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet
Johann Sebastian Bach - The Art of Fugue
Channel Classics CCS 12698, 1998
Цитата:
The Art of Fugue is a complex work -- not the first piece by Bach one falls in love with. We don't really know what instrument this was written for, as Bach wrote out each part on a separate line. There have been arrangements for nearly every conceivable combination. Some excellent versions are Vladimir Feltsman on piano, Grigory Sokolov on piano, Berliner Saxophon Quartett, Pittsburgh Symphony Brass, Bernard Lagace on organ, Jordi Savall on small ensemble period instruments. Purists will sneer, but I even like the excerpts recorded over a span of years by Glenn Gould on Sony. Unfortunately, though I like the Goldberg Variations on harpsichord, I have yet to find a version of AOF on harpsichord that I like.
Back to the Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet. Their version is distinguished by the fact that the sound of their recorders somewhat resembles that of an organ (naturally, both being wind through a column instruments) but much gentler. The different recorders have different timbre as well, making it easier to follow the line of each voice. Besides the sonic qualities, the interpretation is at the same time profound and yet dance like. These men are outstanding musicians..
Generally I don't recommend an exotic instrumentation of a work as the first version to buy. But in this case anyone would do well to make this recording their first, or second, or tenth version of The Art of Fugue.

Paul O'Dette
Early Italian Renaissance Music. Lute Music Vol. 2
Harmonia Mundi HCX 3957043, 1994/2001
Цитата:
Paul O'Dette: Few instrumentalists establish themselves with such firm authority as Paul O'Dette has on the lute. In fact, one writer described him as "the clearest case of genius ever to touch his instrument." In fact, O'Dette helped define the technical and stylistic standards to which twenty-first century performers of early music aspire. In doing so, he helped infuse the performance practice movement with a perfect combination of historical awareness, idiomatic accuracy, and ambitious self-expression. "I remember when I first started playing the lute," O'Dette once recalled, "the common perception of Renaissance music was that it was kind of pre-expression -- that people didn't use dynamics, they didn't use tone colors.... [But] the more we've learned, we've realized that in fact all of these expressive devices were being used throughout the sixteenth century." O'Dette deserves much of the credit for bringing this aspect of early music to the fore of performance practice.
O'Dette's musical career can be traced at least back to high school, during which time he played electric guitar in a rock band. Frustrated with the lack of pedagogical consensus within the rock guitar world, and seeking a higher level of technical rigor and discipline, O'Dette took a friend's advice and sought out instruction from a classical guitar teacher in order to improve his rock playing. His first assignment under his new teacher was to learn some Renaissance lute pieces arranged for guitar. He was immediately transfixed by the sonorities of the Renaissance, and sought out recordings of the music on authentic instruments. Also, as luck would have it, his teacher had a kit-made lute that he had never learned to play, which he sold to his student. Over the next few decades, O'Dette's collection expanded to include over 20 instruments, including a lute, an archlute, a chittarone, and a Baroque guitar.
The expansion of his collection paralleled the development of his career as the world's foremost lutenist. In 1976, O'Dette became Director of Early Music at the Eastman School of Music. He has subsequently appeared on over 100 recordings, both as a featured performer and with such prestigious company as Nigel Rogers, Christopher Hogwood, Jordi Savall, Trevor Pinnock, and Gustav Leonhardt. Among his accolades are several nominations for "Record of the Year" for his highly-respected 1995 recording of John Dowland's complete works for lute; the next year his CD of Purcell songs, a collaboration with Sylvia McNair, won a Grammy.
Perhaps O'Dette's style can be described as deeply human. Crucial to his sound is his awareness of the ethnic and dance topics that figure into the music. The dance gestures that correspond-- albeit sometimes in only a stylized way -- to the musical figures, find expression in the contour and phrasing of O'Dette's lines. He makes another enlightening comparison as well, one based on writings contemporaneous to the music: "All of the sixteenth century sources say that the best instrumentalists are those who can make you believe you are listening to words -- that the best instrumental playing strives to imitate the voice in every way possible." This appealing (and historically informed) philosophy of performance and O'Dette's impeccable technique, have made his performance of early music a creative, rather than a curatorial, endeavor. ~ Jeremy Grimshaw
O'Dette's interpretation of this wonderful set of songs is amazing and delightful. Pieces such as Fantasia ( Castelfranco MS ), Pourquoy Allez-Vous Seullette, La Tradittora - only to quote a few-, are simply unbelievable experiences of the refined and high sense of art which emanates from O'Dette's ability to touch his instrument.
O'Dette's interpretation of this set of carefully chosen pieces is quite amazing and delightful. Piece's such the virtuoso Fantasia - Castelfranco MS, Pourquoy Allez-Vous Seullette and La Tradittora - among others-, are only a few examples of the "clearest case of genius ever to touch his instrument ", as O'Dette is known among the specialized musicians of the highest level of technique and feeling.
This true opus must be listened in a wide room, with the lights turned off. Just light a stick of opium incense, taste a hot cup of mint tea, and you'll travel in time. To that time when music wasn't played loud, 'cause it's essence relied upon it's delicacy and sweetness.
