Jonathan Freeman-Attwood (trumpet), Daniel-Ben Pienaar (piano) “Trumpet Masque” sees renowned trumpeter Jonathan Freeman-Attwood explore his passion for expanding the instrument’s limited chamber repertoire by imaginatively arranging Baroque works previously scored for alternative forces.
In “Trumpet Masque”, Jonathan Freeman-Attwood and Daniel-Ben Pienaar take a radical new look at the 17th century with a compelling vision of repertoire historically far-removed from the traditional contexts of both trumpet and piano.
Through wonderfully vibrant programming and arrangements, this invigorating and warm-hearted chamber duo present music from Dowland to Purcell in an energetic, innovative and 21st century fashion.
The aim of this recording is to open our ears to a period of unequalled variety, colour, regional diversity and expressive freedom: the Venetian world of Gabrieli, the great pre-Bach North German lineage of Buxtehude, Jacobean dances and songs and the great G major sonata from Muffat’s ‘Armonico Tributo’ with its virtuoso and valedictory passacaglia, which appropriately ends the disc. “Jonathan Freeman-Attwood's playing is notable for the beauty and freedom of line of his lyrical phrasing, while the bravura is exhilarating. Daniel-Ben Pienaar's accompaniments are boldly supportive and well in the picture.” Gramophone Magazine, July 2008 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | The Glory of GabrieliAntiphonal music for brass choirs
Empire Brass Quintet and friends, Rolf Smedvig “The Empire Brass Quintet's tight ensemble highlights the visceral energy of Gabrieli's antiphonal works. The showy, 'big-band' sound may be a far cry from the muted timbres of sackbut and cornett but few could deny the ensemble's dizzying virtuosity.” BBC Music Magazine, November 2008 **** |

| |  | A. & G. Gabrieli - Music for one and two Organs
Luigi Ferdinando Tagliavini and Liuwe Tamminga (organs) Uncle (Andrea) and nephew (Giovanni) Gabrieli have had a great impact
on Italian Renaissance music. Especially their works for cori spezzati
(double-choir) - ‘inherited’ from Adrian Willaert – utilizing the two
balconies opposite each other at St. Mark’s in Venice, have left an
undisputed mark. Both composers, however, were also organists themselves. It must have
been a challenge to compose music for two organs along the same cori
spezzati lines. This selection of pieces allows the listener to join in the
excitement of playing on historic instruments in a vast church. The
organists are Luigi Ferdinando Tagliavini and Liuwe Tamminga. Recorded at the Basilica di S. Petronio in Bologna, Italy. Both organs
have been used for these recordings. The organs by Lorenzo da Prato (1471-1475) and Baldassare Malamini (1596) are contemporary with
the compositions performed on them here. | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

Rosa Dominguez (soprano), Eric Mentzel (alto), Hans Jörg Mammel (tenor) & Stephan Van Dyck (tenor) La Fenice & Choeur De Chambre De Namur, Jean Tubery From Nativity to Whitsun, from Annunciation to Assumption, all
the high holy days of the liturgical year were, at the basilica of San
Marco 'della serenissima republica di Venetia' worthy occasions to
deploy incomparable ceremonies. Music played the major role and
had to be as splendid and glorious as the golden dome under which
it was performed.The celebration of the Holy Trinity was given a
particularly elevated status, which implied a first class musical
performance. Choirs as well as an instrumental ensemble and two
organs on both sides of the Basilica's chancel were called to
contribute to all this splendour.
