Discover the new single "Barsanti: The lass of Peatie's Mill" by Max Volbers and Alexander von Heißen.
Francesco Barsanti came to London as a young man in 1714 and travelled on to Scotland in 1735. There he fell in love with both a Scottish woman and with the Scottish tunes. Inspired by this, he published a whole ‘Collection of Old Scots Tunes’, adding his own basso continuo to the melodic lines. ‘The lass of Patie's mill’ is a beautiful, simple tune and was incredibly popular. Unfortunately, the original lyrics have not survived.

The first release of the new album by Ivor Bolton & Mozarteumorchester Salzburg "Bruckner: Symphonie in D-Moll 'Nullte', WAB 100: III: Scherzo. Presto" is out now.
Bruckner's so-called "Nullte" (zeroth) Symphony, which according to today's knowledge was more likely his second symphony, was titled with a big zero by the composer himself. He described it as "rejected, completely invalid, annulled, only an attempt" and put in a drawer. It then took until 12 October 1924 before it was finally premiered.
The full symphony will be released on 16 August.

Discover Michał Balas´ new single "Concerto C Major Hob. VIIb:1, III. Allegro Molto".
The date of composition of the C Major concerto can only be roughly determined: Haydn probably wrote it in the early 1760s for his friend Joseph Franz Weigl, who was the first cellist in the Esterházy court orchestra at the time. The work disappeared for two centuries and was only resurrected by chance in 1961.

Listen now to the first single by the new Berlin Classics artist Max Volbers "Corelli: Sonata for recorder and basso continuo in G Minor "La Follia", op. 5 no. 12: II. Allegro".
"Corelli was a superstar in London, and although he was never there, his music was omnipresent. His violin sonatas op. 5 were particularly popular and were republished dozens of times and decorated in ever crazier ways - including for the recorder. Speaking of crazy: the last of the 12 sonatas, "La Follia" ("the follies") is a series of variations on the famous Follia bass, in which the upper voice and the basso continuo play themselves more and more into madness." - Max Volbers
