William Berger baritone
Iain Burnside piano
For his solo debut on disc, William Berger has devised an ingenious sequence of seventeen songs describing a sleepless night experienced by a man who reflects on his love for an unnamed woman. From Viennese classicism to fin-de-siècle Romanticism, shadowy English pastoral to the contemporary worlds of Richard Rodney Bennett and Raymond Yiu, this wide-ranging programme is brought to nuanced life by this outstanding young baritone. The indefatigable Iain Burnside provides lucid and imaginative accompaniment. Together, their performances vividly capture the full gamut of nocturnal emotions.

First Hand CD 'Aria' has just been named by Classic FM as one of the best albums of 2011!
This brilliantly devised CD from Gerard McChrystal is a deeply personal album; at times mystical, the music is always beautiful and captivating. Indeed, Aria has similar qualities to Jan Gabarek's Officium (which sold 1.4 million copies) and will appeal to this fan-base. Featuring soprano and alto saxophone with a colourful array of different ensemble accompaniments - string orchestra, choir, guitar, piano, solo, string quartet and electronics. Baroque music blends seamlessly with contemporary; Handel resolves into Michael Nyman, Debussy's Syrinx morphs into Ravel's Piece en forme de habanera. All the tracks lead to the next by key or by starting and ending on the same note. Other works include Philip Glass Façades, Faure Les Berceaux, Bozza Aria, as well as original works by Billy Cowie, Karen Tanaka, Andy Scott and Michael McGlynn (from the vocal group Anúna who featured in Riverdance). Accompanying Gerard on this album are some of the UK's finest classical musicians including the Smith Quartet and the No. 1 best-selling classical artist, guitarist Craig Ogden. Gerard McChrystal is a multi-award winning saxophonist who has performed as a soloist in over 30 countries with many of the World's leading orchestras and ensembles. |

Recorded in Bulgaria Concert Hall, Sofia, January 2000
The second CD of the pianist Vesselin Stanev presents him as an excellent interpreter of music by Chopin, Ravel and Rachmaninov. Vesselin Stanev has chosen works of the highest pianistic class and proves again his exceptional talent. He has been student of Dmitriy Bachkirov, a celebrated representatives of the Russian keyboard school, and later continued perfecting his skills with the well-known Alexis Weissenberg. Stanev is holder of several prestigious prizes in international competitions. He enjoys an active concert-giving career in France, where he has been living for years, in Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Moscow and Bulgaria. Musical critics rank him with the greatest pianists of the 20th century and continuously emphasize on his power, insight and temperament of performance. The performer's originality of ideas, form-construction and exceptional musicality are the characteristics that create the strongest impression in his interpretations. In addition, he possesses a well-mastered and appropriately used virtuosity, organically linked with the whole concept about the composition he perfroms. The magnificence of Chopin's 24 Preludes and Rachmaninov's Sonata No. 2 prove all the pianist's gifts. On the other hand, the richness of nuances and images, revealed with impressionistic finesse and fantasy in Ravel's Gaspard de la nuit, show him as a great master of the sound and a pianist who is capable of suggesting emotions, ideas, psychological states and romantic elеgance, and who controls in details all the subtleties of his instrument. |
