Fiesta

Dudamel, Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra

Gustavo Dudamel and the SBYOV have stunned audiences worldwide with their explosive Latin-American showpieces. No other conductor or orchestra in the world could deliver a recording like this. It juxtaposes contrasting showpieces such as the Stravinsky-esque rhythmic drive of Revueltas's Sensemaya, the expansive lusciousness of Danzón no. 2 by Arturo Marquez and the vibrant ballet suite Estancia by Ginastera.

..."They play as if their hearts are fit to burst with pride as well as passion. ...I predict a smash hit." ~ Gramophone

Hildegard Von Bingen: Celestial Harmonies

Jeremy Summerly, Oxford Camerata

Von Bingen was the gifted "celebrity" from the 12th-century. "Her writings, her poetry and music, and her founding and leadership of the convent at Rupertsberg established her as one of the more remarkable and influential figures of her time. The question today is how to best present her music—long sequences of unison chant—which of course was intended for worship and prayer, not for 'performance'. ...this program...takes a very sensible and listener-friendly route." ~ David Vernier, ClassicsToday.com
