FLAC (tracks), Lossless / MP3 320 kbps | 1:10:35 | 250 / 162 Mb
Genre: Classical / Label: Champs Hill Records

Soprano Rowan Pierce, baritone Julien Van Mellaerts and pianist Lucy Colquhoun present Songs of the Night: a collection of works exploring the night in all its guises, from roaring storms and peaceful sunsets to magical forests and nocturnal travellers. The journey begins in the depths of a dark German forest with Schubert's Friedrich Schlegel's Waldesnacht. Goethe's iconic Wandrers Nachtlied is heard in Schubert's famous setting and Schumann's less familiar edition, creating a fascinating chance to compare two composers' thoughts about the same text.

Genre: Classical, Vocal | Label: Champs Hill Records | Catalog: CHRCD133

There is no shortage of recordings of Schubert song highlights, but this one by tenor Ilker Arcayürek is a standout. Arcayürek is a little less exotic than he sounds; born in Istanbul, he is fully Austrian trained, and is an alumnus of the Vienna Mozart Boys' Choir. His German reveals no trace of an accent, and the strong point of his performance is natural text engagement. Arcayürek's performance, in fact, although he has moved to Britain and become a BBC 3 New Generation Artist, falls into a long Austrian-German tradition that prizes naturalness of phrasing and diction.

For his debut song disc, baritone Julien Van Mellaerts honours his heritage with a selection of New Zealand, British, and French song, recorded with pianist James Baillieu. "I wanted to share where I feel connected to and explore the idea of home and identity through song. Having grown up knowing I was from many places, I feel a strong connection to the protagonist in Vaughan Williams / R. L. Stevenson’s Songs of Travel. I am lucky to call so many beautiful places home, and ultimately, that’s how we settled on the title, Songs of Travel and Home.” — Julien Van Mellaerts.

Genre: Classical / Label: Champs Hill Records

The Oculi Ensemble is a flexible string ensemble dedicated to performing and discovering the breadth of string repertoire for combinations from two to seven players. The Ensemble is derived from internationally acclaimed musicians from such leading quartets as the Badke, Doric, Piatti, Navarra, Albion and Idomeneo. For their debut release as a standalone ensemble, the Oculi Ensemble presents chamber works by Richard Strauss, ranging from his iconic Metamorphosen (from which the album takes its title) to some of his lesser-known chamber works, including his early String Quartet fragment, left tantalizingly unfinished. Oculi Ensemble leader Charlotte Scott writes: “This disc has been a real labour of love. From the Oculi Ensemble’s inception the group wanted to explore the breadth of instrumental combinations of Strauss’ chamber works. We spent a hugely enjoyable time recording at Champs Hill, and we enjoyed the journey that each day took us on, emotionally and musically. We hope that the disc enables you to join us in the Oculi Ensemble’s appreciation of the glorious chamber works of Richard Strauss."
