The Guardian: Elektra, Gwyneth Jones & The OSR - Live recording Geneva 1990

Recordings of Elektra are proliferating at present; hard on the heels of Semyon Bychkov's new version of Hänssler, reviewed in these pages last month, come two performances, each of which serves the work better than Bychkov's impressive, if gravely flawedsset. Both derive from radio archives. The Walhall label offers Karl Böhm's justly famous 1...

Gramophone (UK): Stanford Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No 2, Finghin Collins

Stanford’s answer to the great Russian concerto It is not perhaps surprising that the key, opening flourishes and other episodes in this splendid concerto recall Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No 2. Stanford had conducted its British premiere, with the composer as soloist, the year before he completed his own. If the second and third movements do...

Music Web International: Ginastera Harp, Anaïs Gaudemard

On the face of it, to present a programme with three pieces that range over one hundred and fifty years might seem a strange thing to do. This is especially the case as they are only linked through the solo instrument, the harp, and are stylistically miles apart. However, in the hands of Anaïs Gaudemard this works well, showing the versatility ...

Audiophile Audition: Brahms - String Sextet No. 1 in B-flat Major; String Sextet No. 2 in G Major

Recorded 9-11 February 2014, these realizations of the two Brahms string sextets share with us a profound and often melancholy – and contrapuntal – intimacy. The Quatuor Sine Nomine opens with the 1865 G Major Sextet, composed in the spirit of “atonement” for a failed engagement between Brahms and Agathe von Siebold, daughter of a university p...

Volkskrant: Charles Villiers Stanford, Finghin Collins

De muziek van de Ier Charles Villiers Stanford (1852-1924) hoor je in Nederland niet vaak, om niet te zeggen nooit. Ten onrechte, zo blijkt bij kennismaking met zijn Tweede pianoconcert en de concertvariaties op Down among the dead men, beide met Finghin Collins als solopianist. Het pianoconcert is geïnspireerd door het werk van Rachmaninov, me...

Gramophone (UK): Schumann Complete Piano Works, Vol 1, Collins

A young pianist showing an uncanny and moving empathy with Schumann Vol 1 of Finghin Collins’s Schumann cycle is revelatory. In this young Irish pianist we have an artist (and I use the word advisedly) of rare poetic empathy, one with an uncanny and moving capacity to arrive at the still centre, the very heart, of Schumann’s teeming and frenzie...
