Lassus: Requiem (Ricercar)
Expert singing of de Lassus’ sinuous polyphonic writing in two contrasting funeral masses, but marred throughout by growling basses [RMo]
Hedges: Complete Piano Music, Vol 1 (Divine Art)
The beginning of what promises to be an important, recorded survey [MMl]
Weber: Overtures (BIS)
(Déjà Review) A very distinguished collection which avoids any hint of the routine [JS]
Mahler: Das Lied von der Erde (Hänssler)
(Déjà Review) A marvellous reading overall, though with one curious and questionable characteristic [WH]
Franck: Symphony & Khachaturian: Violin Concerto (Audite)
A splendid double treat, with everyone at the top of their game [SGa]

Hingeston is “something of an inside secret” [DC]

Warm, lyrical, natural playing, slightly soft-edged in manner and acoustic but so very musical [RMo]

An interesting but unremarkable collection [NB]
