Spirit of Improvisation
Works for Piano by Mozart, Scarlatti and Liszt

Bernhard Parz, Piano


What do the three composers Mozart, Scarlatti, Liszt on this album, who come from such different eras, have in common? They all broke new ground, both in terms of piano-playing technique and musically. All three developed their works directly, almost improvisationally, on the instrument. [...]

Johannes Brahms: Clarinet Sonatas & Five Lieder

Ron Selka, Clarinet & Aviram Reichert, Piano


Johannes Brahms' works from his later creative period represent a very special chamber music experience, which the duo Selka & Reichert make a listening pleasure on this recording.

DREAM IMAGES
Works for Piano by Debussy, Scriabin, Crumb, Ravel and Schmidt

Josefa Schmidt, Piano


Josefa Schmidt presents the very interesting piano programme "Dream Images", a musical combination with the composers Debussy, Scriabin, Crumb, Ravel and Schmidt.

The Späth Organ in St. Oswald Regensburg
Works by Scheidemann, Bach, Böhm, De Neufville, Mozart, Pasquini and Krebs

Roman Emilius, Organ


The organ in St. Oswald's church in Regensburg was inaugurated in 1750. This recording on the occasion of its 270th birthday documents its excellent sound. To this day, the instrument by Frantz Jacob Späth has been largely preserved in its original state and is an important testimony to the art of outh German organ building. Roman Emilius plays organ music of the 17th and 18th centuries, by Heinrich Scheidemann to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Sergei Rachmaninoff:
Piano Sonata No. 2 in B-flat Minor, Op. 36 (Version 1913)
10 Préludes, Op. 23 (1901–1903)

Emre Yavuz, Piano


Two giant works: the lesser played 1913 version of Op. 36, Piano Sonata No. 2, an epic piece in the truest sense of the word – and Op. 23, 10 Preludes, an intimate cycle, both challenge the physical and psychological limits of the player and the listener.
With the help of the Bösendorfer concert grand this recording dives deep into the rich, orchestral sound world, as well as the dark nature of these works, loaded with fi ne details, technical and emotional extremities, candid moments and explosivity.

On September 02, the winners of the OPUS KLASSIK 2020 (formerly ECHO) were announced!

The Edition / 5 CD Box
"Heinz Winbeck - The Complete Symphonies" (TXA17091)
has been awarded with the OPUS KLASSIK -The German Award for Classical Music, Category "World Premiere Recording of the Year".

We are very pleased with this great appreciation, especially in such difficult times for culture. This should also give courage and motivation to all musicians.

Congratulations to all artists and participants!

Further information will be announced by the jury shortly. The OPUS KLASSIK 2020 will be awarded on October 17/18 at the Konzerthaus Berlin.

Johann Sebastian Bach:
Musikalisches Opfer (BWV 1079)

Ensemble Barockin': Kozue Sato, Flauto Traverso - Dmitry Lepekhov & Lena Kaidanovska, Baroque Violins - Pavel Serbin, Baroque Cello & Viola da Gamba - Felix Stross, Baroque Cello & Violoncello Piccolo - Francis Jacob, Harpsichord


"Nicht Bach, sondern Meer sollte er heißen." (L. v. Beethoven)
(Translator’s note: "It's not Bach he should be called, but Meer!" In German, this is a play on words: "Bach" means brook and "Meer" means sea.)
The "Musical Offering" collection of pieces, dedicated to the Prussian King, Frederick II, is a contrapuntal masterpiece, in which Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750) seems to draw every conceivable facet from a single theme (Thema Regium – royal theme). It is a musical testament of the old master, full of freshness, creativity and original quality – like an endless sea.
With this recording, Ensemble Barockin' presents a musically careful and genuinely new interpretation.

The German Record Critics' Award | Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik PdSK ~ Award

The CD Album
"Bridge & Brahms - Namirovsky-Lark-Pae Trio" (TXA18104)
has been awarded with "The German Record Critics' Award", Category "Chamber Music (with Piano), 3-2020".

Congratulations on this great success, it's a very fine appreciation for the artistic work/production.

Elisabeth Richter, Jury: "Frank Bridge, Jahrgang 1879, war der Lehrer von Benjamin Britten, er gilt zu Recht als einer der wichtigsten britischen Komponisten des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts. Seine sehr eigene, traditionsverbundene und auch visionäre Tonsprache, teils inspiriert von Debussy, aber auch von Schönberg und der zweiten Wiener Schule, setzt das Namirovsky-Lark-Pae Trio sensibel um – mit genauer Kenntnis der kompositorischen Mixtur, mit Klangfarbensinn, Durchsichtigkeit, aber auch zupackend. Qualitäten, die auch Brahms ungleich bekannterem Trio op. 8 zugute kommen. Zwei exzellent interpretierte Meisterwerke, die sich in ihrem stilistischen Kontrast prächtig ergänzen."

We are pleased to announce the Nomination of three TYXart Albums, in several Categories, for this Year's OPUS KLASSIK!

»»» CD "Fantasia Bellissima" - Bernhard Hofstoetter TXA18115
»»» CD "Favourites" - Tabea Debus & Ensemble TXA18107

Trios by Frank Bridge and Johannes Brahms

Namirovsky-Lark-Pae Trio: Misha Namirovsky, Piano -
Tessa Lark, Violin - Deborah Pae, Cello


Joining the Trios of Johannes Brahms and Frank Bridge on one CD album may appear on first glance as an odd choice. The two composers offer few points of overlap, whether one chooses to observe them from a historical-biographical perspective or in a more direct comparison of their musical styles and characters. Yet this choice is anything but random ...

NOTTURNO – Music of Lights and Shadows

Works for Piano solo by Chopin, Crumb, Debussy, Scriabin, Barber and Field

Matthias Veit, Piano


"NOTTURNO — Music of Lights and Shadows" is a game; an interplay of light and shade in a quasi nocturnal setting that is occasionally illuminated by dazzling daylight.
Pianist Matthias Veit unfurls a "panorama of correspondence", shifting between tense tranquillity and colourful dramatics. Iridescent character pieces inhabited by ghostly figures, unknown and well-loved gems from the piano repertoire span a net that stretches from the Romantic era to the modern day.

Video ~~~ the new Album "XXIV Fantasie per il Flauto"

On the occasion of Telemann’s 250th anniversary of death in 2017 the City Music Foundation, London, has commissioned twelve contemporary pieces for Tabea Debus, each based on one of the Fantasias. All of these freshly-penned pieces are reflections on thematic, harmonic or rhythmic material taken from the Fantasias – a (re) interpretation of musical ideas, a reply to Telemann’s musical thoughts.
