With
this ongoing series, Musica Omnia pays homage to
the great composers of the nineteenth century, by
presenting their works in new, historically-aware
performances featuring some of the leading artists of
our time. The music of such familiar composers as
Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn and Schumann is
complemented by the works of less commonly heard
composers such as Sigismond Thalberg, Clara Schumann,
Fanny Mendelssohn, Gabriel Fauré and many others. Such
artists as Penelope Crawford, Max van Egmond, Jaap
Schröder, Kenneth Slowik, Emlyn Ngai, Sally Pinkas,
Steve Larson and Mark Fraser and Enid Sutherland are
featured both in solo repertoire and as members of
ensembles such as the Adaskin String Trio, The
Atlantis Trio & Ensemble, Smithsonian Chamber
Players and The Axelrod Quartet. Enhancing
each release is an informative booklet featuring major
essays by such leading writers as Susan Youens, Larry
Todd, John Daverio, Rufus Hallmark and Robert Mealy. |
