Anja German plays Haydn, Schubert & Chopin Shop Now

Classical Music

Part of 22-year old German’s prize for winning last year’s Manchester competition for young pianists is this disc and while she is a tad too cautious in the Haydn, the clarity of lines and colour in the Schubert and energy of the Chopin vindicate the judges.

Join us in celebrating the genius of women composers on this #InternationalWomensDay with our newly updated playlists on Spotify, Deezer, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, and Qobuz! Divine Art is excited today to present “Cocteau” from pianist Isabelle O’Connell exploring the musical connections and artistic spirit of the multi-talented and influential French artist, filmmaker, novelist, and poet Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)! Divine Art Records is proud to present the premiere recording of 24 Preludes for Piano by Nicholas Scott-Burt, performed by Da-Hee Kim, marking the Divine Art debut for both composer and pianist! “This recital of Spanish songs derives from a series of concerts given by an organisation from San Francisco called LIEDER ALIVE! … Esther Rayo does these charming songs full justice. She catches the idiom, and finds the flavour of each… Rayo is vocally persuasive throughout the recital, and the pianist gives her excellent support… a highly attractive recital.” —MusicWeb International On 13 March, Ekkozone Records is thrilled to release WISDOM’s Sources/’O’o, a ground-breaking new album from Pulitzer Prize-winning US composer Roger Reynolds, which continues his visionary collaboration with producer Mathias Reumert, and features all premiere recordings. 🎧 Listen now to the @purcellsingers' first single from their upcoming album, #ASpotlessRose! ➡️ listn.fm/aspotlessrose [in bio] Out today!
