Choral Album
Nabucco: The Sublime World-Baroque-Music of Leonardo García Alarcón
A major album, this oratorio, brilliant from start to finish, owes its resurrection to the passion and meticulous taste of a certain Leonardo Garcia Alarcon, stylistic son of a Gabriel Garrido and a Christina Pluhar.
Vocal Album
La Passion de Simone by Kaija Saariaho
The present recording released by Ondine allows us to make a better judgment of the music itself thanks to the unsurpassable performance by Dawn Upshaw and also to Esa-Pekka Salonen’s elaborate and brilliant direction at the head of the excellent Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra.
Instrumental Album
Towards a Complete Collection of Weinberg’s Symphonies –Finally!
Since the vast symphonic canon of Mieczyslaw Weinberg, 27 opuses-strong, still remains partially unexplored on disc, this publication is likely to become a complete reference guide.

The originality and success of this DVD results from primarily an unusual pairing of two works, or rather two rarities, belonging to very different eras and idioms.
Dance DVD

A captivating documentary on the School of Dance of the National Opera of Paris and the relentless rigor whereby the corps de ballet is trained to become princes and princesses.
Music Book
