| | Song Of Songs - Palestrina, Gombert, Lassus, Victoria / Stile Antico CD (2009) SACD Hybrid
Vienna Philharmonic Plays 20th Century Masterpieces
 $20.45 
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
In the Old Testament book "Song of Songs," two lovers describe their passion and praise each other's beauty in richly metaphoric language full of suggestive images from nature. The poetry, sensuous and at times erotic, was usually interpreted as an allegory of the love between God and his faithful. In the sixteenth century, when the works on this album were composed, the Beloved was often envisioned as the Virgin Mary, and the line between secular and sacred love for her was sometimes shaded ambiguously. The text's receptiveness to Marian devotion, in a time when there was a virtual cult dedicated to her, may explain its considerable popularity among Renaissance composers. The polyphonic settings sampled on this recording reflect a variety of approaches. While some compositions utilize the original text, others use contemporary poetry adapted from it, in music that ranges from simple four-part settings to complex polychoral ones.

| | Elina Garanca Bel Canto CD (2009)
Vienna Philharmonic Plays 20th Century Masterpieces
$13.89
In assembling the arias in BEL CANTO, Elina Garanca , the Latvian mezzo-soprano who has won rave reviews for the beauty and agility of her voice, spent considerable time poring over manuscripts and scores of operas by the greatest bel canto composers, Gaetano Donizetti, Vincenzo Belliini, and Gioacchino Rossini. Garanca picked the resulting selections for their depth of character portrayal and suitability to her voice. Arias from off-the-beaten-path operas like Donizetti's L'ASSEDIO DI CALAIS and DOM SEBASTIAN, and Bellini's ADELSON E SALVINI rub shoulders with more familiar offerings from these composers, and they showcase her dramatic flair to full effect. Claudio Abbado directs the Bologna Teatro Comunale Orchestra and Choir.
2009 release. Elina Garanca follows her exceptional DG debut splash, Aria Cantilena, with bel canto solos and ensembles featuring guest luminaries like Ildebrando d'Arcangelo. Flawless coloratura and a 'one-in-a-million' mezzo (The Independent) make this exciting young artist ideal for this repertoire. Balancing familiar numbers and ensembles with little known treasures by Bellini, Donizetti and Rossini, Elina rides bel canto's vocal acrobatics and spun out melodies through an emotional spectrum to unforgettable effect Universal
