MIR090 Barcode: 3760127 220909 NORMAL PRICE CD BEETHOVEN Piano Sonatas Nos 17, 24, 30 & Bagatelles Op. 126 Andrei Korobeinikov (piano) Each of Beethoven's 32 sonatas has its own special character. And, modest though they are in their aims and dimensions, the Bagatelles show the composer at his very greatest. Andrei Korobeinikov, born in Moscow in 1986, has performed in more than 20 countries all over the world and won more than 20 prizes in national and international competitions, among them the Alexander Scriabin International Piano Competition in 2004 and the Rachmaninov Piano Competition in Los Angeles in 2005, where he also received the Audience Prize. At the age of 19, he graduated from the Moscow Conservatory with an exceptional award as 'best student of the decade'. In 2005 he pursued his studies at the Royal College of Music in London with the aid of a Scholarship. Now regularly invited over the world, he has appeared at Festival International de Piano de La Roque d'Anthéron, the Auditorium du Louvre in Paris, the Wigmore Hall and the Chipping Campden Festival in London, the Gstaad Festival, the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, and the Performing Arts Center in Washington. ALSO AVAILABLE: MIR061 Scriabin: Piano Sonatas Nos 4, 5, 8 & 9; Poèmes; Vers la Flamme "Korobeinikov unleashes the sonatas' pent-up fury with such wonderfully unbuttoned directness that it is hard to complain. There are no half measures in his playing, the technique is formidable; it is a genuinely thrilling disc." The Guardian "Andrei Korobeinikov's recital of music taken from the composer's middle and late periods will surely become a compulsory addition to all lovers of Scriabin's neurotic and compulsive genius…Such playing, finely recorded and presented, makes further recordings by this phenomenally gifted young pianist a necessity rather than a probability." Bryce Morrison, Gramophone ALSO AVAILABLE: ALPHA098 'An Clara' "we hope that Alpha will continue this series, so that we can hear Le Sage put his fine pianistic colourings to such masterpieces as the Fantasy and Kreisleriana."

Specially written by the arranger of the band, and derived from songs outwith the world of classical music, a bold new repertoire has been built from Madonna, Zappa, Björk, Kylie Minogue and Spears (Britney…) but also Brel and Gainsbourg… To celebrate its 10th birthday with a wink, Alpha has supported this special venture that scrambles the boundaries and the brains. The pure pleasure of music making is to be found here, exclusively realised by the singers, including all the instrumental and percussion effects, with a technical level of virtuosity from each of the singers; and finally a quality and the creativity in the arrangements which brings new life to the original pop songs. Special project means special packaging. The Encores album has little in common with their usual collections, and so ALPHA in festive anniversary mood have given it a distinctive identity with a tactile circular metal box. LIMITED EDITION Guillaume de MACHAUT Ballades Ensemble Musica Nova / Lucien Kandel AECD0982 Barcode: 3 760058 369821 NORMAL PRICE CD "The work of Guillaume de Machaut dominates the French 14th Century. It was bequeathed to us thanks to 6 illuminated manuscripts kept in the French National Library in Paris. Those manuscripts assemble the full poetical and musical works of the composer, structured as a very precisely organised entity. The musical part is composed of motets, virelais, ballads, lais, rondeaux and the famous Messe de Notre Dame. Thanks to the research of 20th century musicologists, we can now assess the full importance of this work enabling performers to read his music directly from manuscript sources and make us more and more familiar with this ancient media. This proximity with Guillaume de Machaut is an essential component of our work as a polyphonic ensemble. In this new recording devoted to the canon of Reims, we invite you to follow our poet-musician in the fantastic and experimental world of his ballads." harmonia mundi UK- released 11th January 2010
