Gramophone | February 2020
For the February issue of Gramophone, on sale now, Richard Bratby interviews conductor and orchestra builder John Wilson about his new recording with the Sinfonia of London, while Tim Parry meets the British pianist Benjamin Grosvenor to talk about his new Chopin concertos recording.
Plus, Editor-in-Chief James Jolly flies to Vienna to meet the extraordinarily versatile American mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey as she prepares to release her ‘Arianna’ recording with Jonathan Cohen’s Arcangelo.
Elsewhere, in Collection David Gutman explores the many and diverse recordings of Mahler’s Fourth Symphony, while in Classics Reconsidered David Threasher and Geraint Lewis listen with fresh ears to George Guest’s 1968 recording of Haydn’s Creation Mass from St John’s, Cambridge – does it still deserve its ‘collector’ status?
And, as always, don’t miss our expert critics’ opinions of the newest classical releases – which will be named Editor’s Choice, and which overall recording will be crowned Recording of the Month?
