Presenting my thirty-three best CDs of 2020
[…] studio time costs more - and simple and quick recordings short on celebrity-demanded retakes. An example of the supplementary licensed repertoire is the wisely-chosen Rubbra and Moeran disc with Raphael Wallfisch licensed from Naxos. My advocacy of Brilliant Classic's Cello Sonatas Edition needs go no further than listing the featured composers: Scarlatti, Vivaldi, Lanzetti, Haendel, Caporale, Geminiani, Pericoli, Boccherini, Beethoven, Moscheles, Hummel, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Alkan, Schubert, Franck, Cilea, Debussy, Roslavets, Pilati, Grieg, Poulenc, Röntgen, Saint-Saëns, Brahms, Martucci, Fauré, Kodály, Pizzetti, Castelnuovo-Tedesco, Miaskovski, Rachmaninov, Tchaikovsky, Glazounov, Prokofiev, Richard Strauss, Thuille, Casella, Rubbra, Moearan, Shostakovitch, Schnittke, Britten, and Kapustin. Brilliant Classic's Cello Sonata Edition offers hours of rewarding listening to both established masterpieces and new discoveries for remarkably little cost - I paid just over £1 a disc.

[…] so there’s a lot to be expected. As to the programmes, there is a wide range besides the usual Dutch fixtures of baroque. At the main venue, in TivoliVredenburg GZ, besides Schubert and Beethoven, a lot more and more modern pieces can also be heard, from Bruch and Debussy through Mendelssohn and Korngold to Kodály, Bartók Messiaen and Shostakovich. But of course don’t expect to hear anything like to wonderful Arensky-, Joachim Raff- or Julius Röntgen-trios, that is, nothing really out of the ordinary. Only thing to be aware of is timing as some of the concerts take place in the morning or during the afternoon, not always in the evening. Stay tuned, tickets are still available, there’s a nice choice and good musicians. Better plans to start the summer? Hardly. by P.S.
