Bach: Cantatas Vol. 54 (JS Bach-Stiftung)

How can I have missed the first 53 volumes of this series? [DJB]

Quiet City (Sono Luminus)

(Déjà Review) Great tunes, bluesy excursions and limpid romanticism [JW]

The Beecham Collection Vol. 36 (SOMM Recordings)

An appealing programme drawn from three ‘late’ concerts, including a galvanised Tchaikovsky [NB]

Poulenc. The Life in the Songs (Liveright)

An infectiously enthusiastic journey through Poulenc’s songs, which brings the composer to life [ACG]

Fomin & Wanczura: Orchestral Works (cpo)

Something of an off-the-beaten-track treasure [DC]

Holst: The Planets; Raitio: Moonlight on Jupiter (Ondine)

Admirably controlled and impressively recorded Planets, and a Finnish treat [ST]

Bruckner: Symphony No.0 (MDG)

(Déjà Review) The symphony should have broader appeal, and is certainly a satisfying listen [GD]

I Have Lived & Loved (Albion Records)

Conclusive proof that Songs of Travel need not be the preserve of male singers [JQ]
