Byrd: Organ Works

Belder plays with expression and a capricious sense of the impulsive nature of the music

Paul Ignatz Liechtenauer: 4 Masses, Op 2

Clarity of articulation is one of Willens’s hallmarks in these lovingly prepared performances which will surely win many new friends for Liechtenauer’s music

Sigfrid Karg-Elert: Ultimate Organ Works Vol 9

Elke Völker manages this mercurial music brilliantly, manipulating every gesture, phrase and dynamic contour as if the 90+ stop Walcker were a puppet on a string

Crimson Roses: Contemporary American Choral Music

A powerful and well-balanced trio of recent American choral works

Dreamcatcher (James McVinnie)

McVinnie’s reputation for bold, imaginative programming is borne out in this compilation alternating contemporary works for organ with some for piano

Holst: Fide et Literis

The CD’s interest for the dedicated Holstian must surely lie in the premiere recordings on the programme

Beaufort Scales – Christopher Cerrone (Lorelei Ensemble)

A stunning celebration for vocals and electronics of the winds swirling across the seas.
