Classical releases, week 41
· 30 releases
This week's classical music releases highlight a diverse range of performances and rediscoveries, from Handel's Alcina at the Opéra de Lille to the posthumous release of Richard Strauss's Vier letzte Lieder. New recordings explore works by lesser-known composers such as Ferdinand Herold and Alessandro Scarlatti, while reissues and live captures bring renewed attention to figures like André Cluytens, Miles Davis, and Ryuichi Sakamoto. Concerts and festivals across Europe, including Nîmes and Strasbourg, feature interpretations of Brahms, Dvořák, and Schumann, often with a focus on expressive intimacy and historical context. The season also includes reflections on legacy, such as Neeme Järvi’s vigorous take on Shostakovich and the final act of Turandot completed by Christopher Tin.
