Classical

Amore e morte dell'amore

Original performances of Poulenc, Auric and other French composers.
Organ works. Vol. II, J.S. Bach.
Robert Quinney on the Metzler Organ at Trinity College, Cambridge.
Arias for Caffarelli., Franco Fagioli
"Franco Fagioli appears to be one of these rare countertenors capable of competing with a mezzo-soprano in the expression of anger, fear or military glorification. He possesses a breath which seems infinite, and especially a pallet of nuances and deanly orchestral colours" said the French magazine Classica.

… pour passer la melancholie., Andreas Staier
Harpsichordist Andreas Staier’s engaging survey of a complicated collection of affects and gestures that seem to suggest an analogue to the philosophical idea of melancholy. The music selected comes from familiar figures such as Froberger, d’Anglebert and Louis Couperin, and lesser lights as well.
Flute music, Peteris Vasks.
Alice, Gillian Whitehead.
Masterpiece is not a term to be used carelessly, but this accolade is totally warranted for Gillian Whitehead's Alice. This monodrama for mezzo and orchestra, with the composer returning to the poetry of Fleur Adcock, was a highlight of Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra's 2003 season, where it shared the bill with Beethoven's Choral Symphony.
