1. Gabriel Garrido and Ensemble Elyma
Out of the many recordings listen to every season, few of them are very popular and make people to listen over and over again because of their unique qualities—terrific performances, fine collection, beautiful sound quality. Gabriel Garrido’s 2004 K617 release of music by Oaxaca Cathedral musicians Gaspar Fernandes and Manuel Sumaya is perhaps one of their finest. The energy is charming and electric.
2. Medieval Dances with Millenarium
Band Millenarium’s 2008 Ricercar recording of medieval dances was a revelation discovery while looking through the label’s catalog. And while I’d never heard of them, I became an instant fan. Their approach in bringing to life the music had a life and groove of its own.
3. Handel’s “Messiah” with The Sixteen
This is the third time that The Sixteen’s new Coro label release of Handel’s Messiah creates it onto the podcast. Just put, it’s an excellent recording.
4. “Essential Purcell”
When place together a two-part Purcell program in this period, I came across a King’s Consort’s collection recording on the Hyperion label entitled “Essential Purcell.” strained from the band’s whole recording of Purcell’s music, the selections are dazzling and live up to the title’s claim.
5. Geminiani/Corelli with Ensemble 415
Ensemble 415 is really one the finest groups in all of the early music. Their Zig-Zag label recording of Gemiani’s performances after Corelli’s op. 5 sonatas is a powerful and high-energy reading of some extremely beautiful music.
6. Renaissance Recorder Improvisations with Pierre Boragno
In 2008, Pierre Boragno’s Zig-Zag tag release of Renaissance organization stimulated by Silvestro Ganassi is a brave and stunning approach to a range that few ever tackle with such strength.
7. J.S. Bach’s finish flute music with Musica Ad Rhenum
Jed Wentz and Musica ad Rhenum were marked on the podcast not long ago, but I have to come back to them because of their new Brilliant Classics recording of J.S. Bach’s whole music for the flute is worth recurring to time and time again.
8. Michel Chapuis and the limb music of Michel Corrette
Proof of three decades ago and re-released in the late ‘80s, Michel Chapuis’ Astrée recording of Corrette’s “New Book of Noëls” is a wonderful performance of music one hardly ever listen to outside of church. Discovered while looking for music for this season’s “Noel, Noel” program. Not only did it robust the bill, but it introduced to one of the most interesting organists no one heard in a long time.
9. The Toronto Consort and the English Renaissance
The Toronto Consort’s Marquis label recording of Music for Elisabeth I is a beautiful and poetic move toward to music that’s frequently released. Luckily, the consort accessible accounts that aren’t eagerly available in adding together to being beautifully done.
10. Debra Nagy and the Les Délices
American oboist Debra Nagy and her collection Les Délices take out of the opening gate with their introduction release, The Tastes Reunited. Everybody return to it since its loveliness and excellent ensemble work sketches you in on multiple listening.
