This is the first solo recording by the Argentinean soprano Veronica Cangemi. She is already well-known for her stunning performances in two award-winning recordings of Vivaldi’s operas, Griselda and Orlando Furioso, released in Naïve’s Vivaldi Edition. Accompanied by the Una Stella Ensemble, she sings a selection of songs and arias from the baroque period by Porpora, Vivaldi and Monteverdi amongst others, alongside 20th century pieces from her native South America by Piazzolla, Guastavino, and Villa-Lobos.

Marianna Martines - Il primo amore

17 tracks - MP3 192 Kbps - RAR 111 Mb

DepositFiles - FileFactory

Nuria Rial & La Floridiana present world premiere recordings by Marianna Martines, a famous female composer in the time of Mozart and Haydn.

Marianna Martines was one of the most accomplished and highly honoured female musicians of the eighteenth century. She studied with the young Joseph Haydn and was known in Vienna to be a gifted singer and keyboard player, who performed duets with Mozart himself. Despite the fact that many of her compositions appeared in print during her own lifetime many of her works are still missing, among them a total of probably 28 sonatas and eight concertos for harpsichord. The album includes four world premiere recordings, and is released to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Marianna Martines who died on March 11th 1812. The 28 page booklet is complete with elaborate liner notes and full libretti in German, English and French.

This CD is extraordinary in many ways, starting with the absolutely perfect choice of works. Granted, Telemann concertos are more or less foolproof, and it takes a pretty bad musician to ruin any piece by this composer. But even so, among all the delicious Telemann concertos available, these are some of the most scrumptious. Furthermore, they are served to the listener on a silver plate, with the best of sauces, and cooked by the best chefs.(...)
I will be quite direct: simply put, this is one of the best flute CDs that I have heard in quite a while, and it belongs in every library and collection. FANFARE: Laura Rónai

Alfred Deller - Complete Vanguard Recordings

35 CD - MP3 192 Kbps - 16 RAR 3.11Gb

"Deller, the first modern virtuoso countertenor, is most often cited for his unmatched expressiveness, his ability to hold an audience rapt with his long-breathed phrases and uncanny, subtle shadings of tone and dynamics. And if you're wondering what this is about, just listen to his rendition of Dowland's "If my complaints", a virtual clinic in vocal poetry. Listen carefully, or you'll miss the most finely-wrought, heartfelt utterances ever captured on a recording. The world has not seen the equal of Alfred Deller; even though we have countertenors today with purer, more even and luxurious tone, none of these singers surpasses Deller in sheer, fundamental artistry or an understanding, internalized feeling for the art of song itself."

Bach - Sonatas & Partitas For Solo Violin

2 CD - MP3 192 Kbps - RAR 225 Mb

DepositFiles - FileFactory

To many, Bach’s Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin have become one vast uninterrupted musical fabric. Thanks to French Baroque violinist Amandine Beyer, you have the opportunity to meet each Sonata and Partita anew, each with its own personality and range of musical and technical possibilities.
Beyer’s use of the violin’s unique resources in terms of dynamic swell and highly nuanced tone color, even in the shortest of bow strokes, is consistently exhilarating.
And despite the wealth of expressive means she applies, the music flows smoothly and organically, within individual movements and from movement to movement within individual suites.
Paradoxically, although her playing affirms musicology in its energy and attention to detail and expressive meaning, Beyer uses ornamentation sparingly, usually in repeated passages, and subjugates tempi, with their happy acquiescence, to what she reckons is the music’s most graceful trajectory.
Zig Zag Territoires’ production team, working in a historic Swiss theater dating back to 1837, has given Beyer a natural acoustic in which to become intimate with Bach.
The liner notes, by Beyer and Olivier Fourés, find it provocative that Bach titled the music “Sei solo” (rather than the grammatically correct “Sei Soli”), which can be translated literally as “you’re alone.”
Her performance of a solo violin sonata by Pisendel, “the best-known German violinist of his generation,” provides context for what Bach’s contemporaries might have experienced when they first heard this extraordinary music.
Beyer’s modern fiddle, based on classic models, was made in 1996 by Pierre Jacquier; Eduardo Gorr made her bow in 2000. The combination provides a variety of rich and subtle sound; though sometimes in the fastest movements her bow has to scurry to keep up with the notes, generally it holds its own with Bach’s requests for virtuosity.
Her double-stops throughout are quite pleasing.

At the age of twenty-six he was already at the height of his powers. He was a master of the ottava rima, the poetic form later to form the basis of recitative. Did he know that, with this work, he was opening the gates that would lead to opera and to another masterpiece on the same subject, 127 years later, Claudio Monteverdi's L'Orfeo?

Telemann - Pastorelle En Musique

2 CD - MP3 192 Kbps - RAR 260Mb


DepositFiles - FileFactory

Telemann’s Pastorelle en Musique belongs to the sub-genre of the Shepherd Play, a kind of Arcadian serenade. It consists of twelve scenes provisionally dated, on stylistic and other grounds, to his Frankfurt years between 1712 and 1721. It was probably scenic and celebratory in nature though the description of "opera" has been appended to it over the years. Whilst it’s not operatic it certainly does contain elements of the set-piece operatic aria. There are opportunities for five solo singers and two choirs (shepherds and shepherdesses). Instrumentally we find that Telemann employs, in addition to a full complement of strings (and gamba), two trumpets, horns and two oboes. (continue)

Montserrat Figueras
Hesperion XXI
La Capella Reial de Catalunya
dir. Jordi Savall

This remarkable release is a veritable history lesson in music, poetry, and literature about Spain, as well as Christopher Columbus and his voyages and times. The title of the set, Lost Paradises, refers to the cessation of the period during which all three traditions - Jewish, Muslim and Christian - worked together to create greatness. The music, pre-baroque and sounding very exotic indeed, is exquisitely performed, sometimes by itself and sometimes in conjunction with the reading of a text. The Moorish and Sephardic music is particularly colorful, but the more familiar, "early" music is just as ravishing. With repertoire both sacred and profane, featuring dances and dirges, Savall, in his notes, is attempting to make us pay heed to the past so that we may form our futures: This isn't as pedantic as it sounds, but it is certainly more than an afternoon of great music listening. What a stunning gift this would make - either to yourself or others. --Robert Levine (AMAZON.COM)
