FELIX MENDELSSOHN
THE YOUNG FELIX MENDELSSOHN
The Atlantis Ensemble - Jaap Schröder
Conventional wisdom has it that Felix Mendelssohn came into his own as a composer at the age of 16 in 1825, with the composition of his string Octet and the Overture to “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”. This release, the final volume of the Atlantis Ensemble’s Mendelssohn 2009 project, reveals the lesser-known riches among the works written by young Felix in the years immediately preceding, 1822-1824. Jaap Schröder and his colleagues take us directly into the prosperous Mendelssohn household of the 1820s, a remarkable environment that nurtured young Felix, the prodigy.

Johann Sebastian Bach
Das Wohltemperierte Clavier, Book II
Peter Watchorn (pedal harpsichord)
By the 1740s, J. S. Bach was engaged in the task of bringing his life’s work to some kind of final form. By 1742 he had compiled a second collection of preludes and fugues in all the possible major and minor keys, which he named Das Wohltemperierte Clavier, Part II, complementing his original set from twenty years earlier. Peter Watchorn presents this monumental work using a German-style harpsichord and pedal harpsichord in performances of unrivalled depth and power

Dr. John Bull
Complete Works for Keyboard, Vol.I
Peter Watchorn and Mahan Esfahani, harpsichord
Dr. John Bull (1562-1628) has long held greater fascination and mystique than any other English composer of the Elizabethan and Jacobean period. Bull was legendary in his own day as the supreme virtuoso keyboard player and holder of the keys to the hidden mysteries of esoteric composition. With this first volume, his fascinating music is presented here in its entirety for the first time by harpsichordists Peter Watchorn and Mahan Esfahani.This release also represents the debut of a splendid new harpsichord by Zuckermann Harpsichords International, based on the 1642 Hans Moermans instrument now in the Russell Collection in Edinburgh.

William Byrd
Gradualia (1607)
Ensemble Plus Ultra - Michael Noone, Director
William Byrd’s Gradualia (1607) have been placed “among the finest English works of all time.” Byrd’s musical rhetoric, a direct and sophisticated response to the suffering of a people living and dying under a brutally oppressive regime, is as searingly relevant today as it was in the days when Catholics in England were forced to practice their religion behind closed doors.
