World-premiere recording featuring Florent Schmitt's works for violin and piano to be released by NAXOS this month (May 2015).
[…] was released in 1994 on NAXOS’ sister label Marco Polo . The longest and most substantial work on the program is the mid-career Sonate libre en deux parties enchainées, Opus 68 . Completed in 1919, it is one of the towering violin sonatas of the 20th century. For this reason alone, it has had more exposure in recordings. In fact, Halska/Chaiquin represents the fourth commercial release of this stunning work; earlier recordings include Fournier/Doyen , Paik/Sermet and Then-Bergh/Schäfer . [There is also a very fine live performance with American violinist John McLaughlin Williams and pianist David Riley that happens to be my personal favorite.] The new NAXOS recording will be released on May 12. However, you may now pre-order the album from numerous sources including Amazon. In addition, generous audio clips are already uploaded on Amazon’s UK site which you can access here .

Brilliance and Sophistication: Florent Schmitt’s Trois Rapsodies (1904)
[…] team conveys. The Casadesus recording is available to hear on YouTube . If you listen past the somewhat scratchy vinyl and the thin base response (a defect in the transfer, not in the original Columbia recording which is satisfyingly full-bodied), you’ll discover just how effective the Casadesus interpretation is. Even better, the recording has finally been reissued on CD mere months ago, after being out of the catalogue for decades. First stereo recording: Huseyin Sermet and Kun Woo Paik (1992). In 1992, the first stereo recording of the Trois rapsodies appeared – another highly effective reading by pianists Huseyin Sermet and Kun Woo Paik. Released on the Valois label, this interpretation inhabits a sound-world redolent of the Casadesus performance — but perhaps with a bit more “icy brittleness.” The three more recent recordings – two Canadian and one American – are more broadly expansive in their flavor. They […]

"Pure Music Masterpiece": Florent Schmitt’s Sonate libre for Violin and Piano (1918-19).
[…] Véga, which issued the Sonata on a 10” LP. The premiere recording of Florent Schmitt’s Sonate libre with Fournier and Doyen has been reissued on CD (on the ACCORD label). [Long considered a touchstone recording, the Fournier/Doyen performance has been reissued on CD, on the ACCORD label .] More than 30 years would go by before the second recording of the Sonate libre was made, by violinist Régis Benoit and Franco-Turkish pianist Huseyin Sermet. It was recorded in 1992 and released on the Valois label . Interpretively, I consider the Valois recording to be every bit the equal of the classic Fournier/Doyen performance. It also boasts better sonics, sounding more natural and less “boxy.” This 1992 performance of Schmitt’s Sonate libre by Régis Benoit and Huseyin Sermet is a brilliantly conceived interpretation. The Benoit/Sermet recording is also available for audition on YouTube: First movement (Lent […]
