This Week's New Features - Thursday, January 24, 2013
 |
James Whitbourn's Annelies is the first major choral setting of The Diary of Anne Frank. It takes the teenager's remarkable and penetrating observations, written while hiding in an Amsterdam attic, as the basis of its extraordinary and moving libretto.  |
| |
 |
Eric Whitacre has a sure instinct when it comes to writing music beyond any kind of avant-gardism in the 21st century: he is representative of a generation of composers who consider tonality and music's accessibility a crucial feature of their works.
For a limited time, take 20% off the companion titles from Rondeau Productions.  |

|
 |
Chandos now releases volume 2 of Bartók pieces for piano and violin, and ClassicsOnline is pleased to feature 26 other remarkable recordings featuring James Ehnes.  |
