Korngold’s most radical opera Das Wunder der Heliane is also available on Naxos 866041012. Opera News wrote ‘The cast assembled for this recording does an admirable job … Fabrice Bollon conducts the Freiburg Philharmonic in a charged interpretation of this mammoth work’.
The Holst-Sinfonietta celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2021. An open-minded approach to repertoire has brought performances of works by Steve Reich, Terry Riley, John Adams, Joseph Schwantner, HK Gruber, Mark-Anthony Turnage, Anno Schreier and others, in stimulating and innovative programmes.
Conductor Klaus Simon is also the pianist in our Korngold Songs series. Of Vol.1 (8572027), MusicWeb International wrote: ‘Klaus Simon provides consistently non-intrusive but illuminating accompaniments… A delightful programme comprising the lesser-known Korngold songs delivered to perfection.’
Freiburg-based chamber ensemble the Holst-Sinfonietta takes its name from the English composer Gustav Holst. It was founded in 1996 by its conductor Klaus Simon with players from South Germany, France and Switzerland. Since it began, the ensemble has collaborated with the Opera Factory Freiburg, appearing on a series of broadcasts and recordings since 1999, including Vivier’s opera Kopernikus, which won a German Record Critics’ Award in 2016 and an International Classical Music Award in 2017.
