Recent Highlights
In this fifth volume of the complete organ works of Johann Pachelbel, Matthew Owens continues his revelatory exploration of a composer who stood at the crossroads of German musical traditions, recorded on the characterful historic Metzler organ of Trinity College, Cambridge.
Martin Romberg’s Symphony of Saints stands as a radiant homage to the Northern Saints — Columba, Aidan, and Cuthbert — whose lives shaped the spiritual fabric of early Northumbria. Commissioned and inspired by personal devotion, this album is completed by Romberg’s Sacred Songs, written for soprano Joanne Lunn, setting luminous texts by Scottish poet Kenneth Steven.
At the heart of this album from the Gould Piano Trio is Schubert’s Piano Trio in E-flat major, D. 929, a late masterpiece of emotional depth and formal ingenuity. Alongside it is the youthful Piano Trio in B-flat major, D. 28 – fresh, lyrical, and full of promise, whilst Schubert Dances – a charming new suite of waltzes, Ländler and Deutscher arranged for piano trio by Brian Newbould, completes the programme and showcases Schubert’s lighter side.
