VINCENT LARDERET
LISZT : Between Light and Darkness - Piano Classics PCL10201 What a great recording! In retrospect, the fact that I raised it to the same level as the recordings by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli and Krystian Zimmerman still bothered me a bit. Reached too high? By no means! ... Vincent Larderet finds all of this to be a master of rhetorically charged art and, not least, the ideal Liszt interpreter. He not only has absolute control over his instrument and all parameters of piano playing, but also a mental, or rather poetic-philosophical, penetration of the works and their content that I have never encountered in this form with Liszt. ... Between virtuosity and spirituality, between asceticism and pathos, an inner tremor that is tense and just controllable pervades his game; and that's why his Liszt recording is deeply personal for me, so incomparable and simply recommendable.” Klassik Heute http://www.klassik-heute.de Vincent Larderet
“Larderet, quite justifiably, once again throws off the artificial shackles of the 'anti-impressionist' and gives free rein to his strongest sides - the ability to 'paint music', playing with timbres, contrasts of dynamic nuances, the deep and full-blooded sound of the instrument.[…]
This is not a piano, not an organ, or even an orchestra, but a chorus of human voices. It seems that such a 'special effect' could only be achieved with a very personal experience. And again, one has to wonder where a young man like Larderet has a life experience that allows him to penetrate into such abysses?"

STEVIE WISHART
"The highlight for me was Stevie Wishart’s Lullaby for Freya, with its mesmeric, melismatic lines circling round a striking solo by Isabella Savage. The choir’s clean, focused sound was perfect for this “new-old” music, Wishart conjuring something of today from the materials of many centuries ago. I loved it."

VINCENT LARDERET
LISZT : Between Light and Darkness - Piano Classics PCL10201 "Larderet surfs the drama with passion and intensity, investing the piece with subtle poetic insights in the more lyrical sections. ... Larderet unleashes some powerful passion and drama ... achieves some wonderful sonorities and effects. ... This is a programme that has been carefully and intelligently constructed and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed its contrasting elements. It’s been beautifully recorded and offers the listener much to enjoy." MusicWeb International "From the opening bars of 'Après une lecture de Dante', Vincent Larderet impresses with his resolute approach and full, orchestral tone. With grand gestures he evokes Liszt’s dantesque visions of hell, admirably forging the extremes of dynamics and temperament into a compelling unity." Klassieke Zaken 2020 Vincent Larderet

At this time, Vanessa has been preparing her next CD for Decca. Prevuously she has release discs of the music of Stockhausen (of which she is a specialist), Stravinsky, Scriabin and Debussy with concertos by Rachmaninov (London Philharmonic Orchestra) and Ravel (Royal Scottish National Orchestra). This next CD takes her to lighter and yet perhaps more dramatic moods with arms from grand Italian opera - a perfect antidote to these current sombre times. Sneak preview HERE

VANESSA BENELLI MOSELL
NEW YORK TIMES Luckily, there is a sterling recent recording of “Klavierstück XII,” on Decca, by Vanessa Benelli Mosell, who worked with the composer before his death in 2007. From the first minute, she treats some quickly rising and falling motifs with an interpretive feeling that’s more romantic than you hear from other players in this repertoire. Yet it’s all in keeping with the surging thematic playfulness of “Licht”-era Stockhausen, a quality which might shock anyone who thinks of him only in terms of early works like “Kontra-Punkte.” SETH COLTER WALLS Oct 2019

We are delighted to announce the representation of the acclaimed Danish percussionist, performer and conductor Mathias Reumert
A dynamic and visionary performer, Mathias is an in-demand soloist and explores brand new percussive territory while remaining a committed interpreter of yesterday’s masterworks by composers such as Xenakis, Stockhausen, Henze and Donatoni. As creator and leader of the highly acclaimed crossover ensemble Ekkozone, he explores the borderlands between classical, world and experimental music in performances at rock and jazz festivals, recently in performances and Steve Reich and an unique exploration into the genesis of Boulez's masterwork Le Marteau sans maître.

A pianist of impeccable international pedigree in the world of contemporary music. For long a champion of the leading composers through her performing with her sister Ufuk in the Duo Dördüncü, the percussion and piano quartet Quatuor Makrokosmos and ensembles across Europe. Bahar brings to her solo performing her understanding of the music of today's composers working closely with them to bring they music to audiences across the world. A charismatic artist with assured technique, deep musicianship and unshakeable enthusiasm, we look forward to many wonderful projects with Bahar. MORE
