Extractions: Cabaret Duo, Marc-Andre Hamelin and Jody Applebaum The cabaret style, epitomized in the witty, sophisticated and urbane music of Kurt Weill and Bertold Brecht's Three Penny Opera, came into favor in the late 19th century and continued through World War I, finally falling into disfavor in the 1930's. The art form is coming back into style (witness the New York revival of the edgy musical Cabaret, with Hamelin and Applebaum at the forefront of this resurgence. The pair has been performing cabaret music for several years now, and have released two CDs of cabaret music. Their first CD, Masterpieces of Cabaret (on the Music and Arts label), featuring music of Britten, Schoenberg and William Bolcom (who also performs music of the Cabaret with mezzo-soprano Joan Morris), and the second, Friedrich Hollaender: Songs of the Berlin Cabaret, (on the Helicon label) have both been well received by audiences and critics alike. Their performances in the Philadelphia area have been characterized by the Philadelphia Inquirer Both Hamelin and Applebaum have careers apart from their joint effort.

Not since the decades-old Shostakovich cycle by the Borodin String Quartet have we heard such a well-played, emotion-packed performance of the composer's complete string quartets. But the Emersons somehow outdo all other Shostakovich cycles available with this thoughtful and warm recording, capturing all the power, irony, and angst that Shostakovich infused in these pieces.

Extractions: "There simply is more music in this Grand. With its higher notes of greatly improved structure it also feature s more powerful sound volumes and keys, which yield to the slightest touch. The basses can be made to sound and reverberate like organ pipes, but nevertheless are clear to the lowest notes. The treble is delicate and effulgent, but, by no means only `bright`. Well proportioned, with exquisitely rounded corners, stands the Grand ESTONIA - large, beautyful and imposing." Svjatoslav Richter "I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how pleased I was to play the ESTONIA concert grand piano. It is indeed a wonderful instrument and has a lovely tone - which is the most important quality for any instrument."

Rzewski: The People United Will Never Be Defeated! A pianist himself, Rzewski initially made a name for himself as a champion of theavantgarde, performing Canadian super-virtuoso marc-andre hamelin has done http://www2.hyperion-records.co.uk/details/67077.asp
Extractions: Get RealAudio To the uninitiated it is hard to describe the musical world of the American composer Frederic Rzewski. A pianist himself, Rzewski initially made a name for himself as a champion of the avant-garde, performing everything from Cage to Boulez. In the '70s his own music took a much more populist turn as his political beliefs drove him to find a much more approachable language, basically tonal and incorporating much quotation from popular music. It is music of this period that is recorded here. The People United Will Never Be Defeated! 36 Variations on a Chilean protest song, has been likened to a twentieth-century 'Diabelli' Variations. This lengthy work is a tour de force of compositional and keyboard virtuosity, exhilarating and emotionally all-encompassing in its effect. Marc-André Hamelin has been playing the work for many years and has become one of its greatest champions, though the fact that many other pianists have also taken it up confirms that the piece is becoming a twentieth-century classic. Similiar in idiom are the two North American Ballads that complete the recital; once again popular melodies are woven into a fabric which in Winnsboro Cotton Mill Blues includes the stunning representation of the mechanical noise of the mill. Recorded on 27-29 August 1998 in Henry Wood Hall, London

Lionel Friend - conductor West Cork Chamber Music Festival Main Page Ruben Aharonian, Andrei Abramenkov (violins) lgor Naidin (viola), Valentin Berlinsky (cello) Undoubtedly one of the major quartets of today, the Borodin String Quartet was formed in 1945 by fellow students from the Moscow Conservatoire, changing its name from the Moscow Philharmonic Quartet to the Borodin Quartet in 1955. Cellist Valentin Bedinsky has been with the Quartet since its earliest days and violinist Andrei Abramenkov joined over 20 years ago. The Quartet's original violist, Dmith Shebalin, retired in early 1996 and was replaced by lgor Naidin, a 26-year old Russian who studied at the Moscow Conservatory with Yuri Bashmet. A founder member of the Quartetto Russo, Mr Naidin was also taught by two of the Borodin Quartet members, Mikhail Kopelman and Valentin Berlinsky. In November 1996 the Quartet announced the appointment of Ruben Aharonian, replacing Mikhail Kopelman as Leader. Mr Aharonian has won prizes at several international competitions, including the Enescu Competition in Bucharest, the Montreal Competition and the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, and is currently Professor of Violin at the Yerevan State Conservatory.
