I'm a huge fan of Les Siecles so looking forward to this new recording of the SS Organ Concerto.

I think he divides his time between them and Boston Symphony.

A new and highly rated Ravel Orchestral Works by Paul Wilson and Sinfonia of London.
Personally, I am very much looking forward to another collection of these luminous and lustrous works.

Coco Tomita was a finalist in 2020 Young Musician and has just released her debut album, which has a primarily French theme and looks most appealing.

She comes from a family of musicians but I have not found a link to "the" Tomita!

It's a stunning and sumptuous recording - the vocal performance is mesmerising in its clarity and depth of expression, backed up by some gorgeous period instruments.
Interestingly enough a short film was made to promote the album. I would love to see it but can only find a trailer which certainly packs a punch!

Klaus Mäkelä's debut on Decca is a Sibelius cycle that appears to have been very well reviewed.

Not altogether new, it was released in January, but it's just been recommended by Gordon Giltrap no less.
