Hyperion gives three waves of farewell
OrchestrasWhile batteries of lawyers spatter sealing wax on small print, we are still awaiting bilateral confirmation of the sale of independent Hyperion Records to the multinational Universal Music.
However, Hyperion has just issed an April release batch with a distinct valedictory feel. Here’s the triptych:
Record of the Month: Haydn’s Seven Last Words
Des canyons aux étoiles … Messiaen’s lifelong engagement with Christian mysticism, birdsong and awestruck contemplation of the beyond.
Ivo Antognini (b1963): Come to me in the silence of the night
The covers are typically spectacular.
