...will be available from jpc on 27th of this month:

I shall be ordering it just prior to the release date so, if you don't want to shell out for it for news of this year's upcoming cpo CDs, I'll be listing them here.
Fantastic, thank you. I always find it really difficult to find information about CPO online, as there seem to be hundreds of organisations called CPO. Very much hoping for some Holbrooke from them...
There never was a 2011-catalogue was it? I'm getting a bit impatient waiting for the Kallstenius and van Gilse discs that were announced two years ago..

Just put www.cpo.de (http://www.cpo.de) into your favourites or bookmarks ;D
I was just about to post making the identical point which Morten has just made ;D
Thank you, Dundonnell, I shall.
Thank you.
Oddly, it's now disappeared from jpc's website. Let's hope it's a temporary problem...
It's now re-appeared and I have duly ordered it!
The catalogue lists a selection of forthcoming cpo releases, namely:
Antheil: Venus in Africa
Braunfels: Sinfonia Concertante Op.68/String Quintet, Op.63 (orch. version)
Cartellieri: Symphonies
Friedrich Fesca: String Quartets (2 vols.)
Gade: Piano Sonata/etc.
van Gilse: Symphonies 3 & 4 (two separate CDs)
Hausegger: Barbarossa/Hymnen an die Nacht
Hiller: piano works
Irgens-Jensen: Symphony/Passacaglia/Rondo marziale
Juon: Piano Sextet/Piano Quintet
Kabalevsky: Cello Concertos Opp.49 & 77
Piano Concertos 1-4/etc.
Kallstenius: Symphony 1/Sinfonietta 2/Musica Sinfonica
Kaminski: Orchestral version of String Quintet in F sharp minor
Lortzing: Regina
G.H.Mann: Clarinet Concerto/Violin Concerto/etc.
Neukomm: Sinfonie Héroïque/etc.
Pejacevic: Violin Sonatas
Pfitzner: Die Rose vom Liebesgarten
Raff: String Quartets 2 & 3
Reinthaler: Das Kätchen von Heilbronn
Respighi: Marie Victoire
Reznicek: Benzin
Ries: Der Sieg des Glaubens
Röntgen: 3 symphonies - Rijk God.../über BACH/No.5 Schnitter Tod
Schnabel: Piano Quintet/etc.
Piano Sonata/etc.
Georg Schumann: Preis-Symphonie/Serenade
Weber: Silvana
Weinberg: String Quartets 2, 12 & 17
Clarinet Sonata/Bassoon Sonata/Trio for Flute, Viola and Harp
Witt: Septet; Quartets; Quintet
Wolf-Ferrari: Die neugierigen Frauen
Of course, this list excludes many other recordings which have either already been made or are planned. It is after all only a selection of forthcoming releases...
Warning: there is every chance of this list containing some absolute gems. Perhaps especially Neukomm, judging by his choral stuff: gr8 if someone could do one of those marvellous full postings on his music. Certainly, CPO is a wonderful label. So maybe the best solution is Hermione Granger's: simply sign up for everything (if you have enough galleons and a time-turner).
Thanks for the notification, Alan :)
As ever though with CPO we must just wait to see when these discs are actually released. Some of these works were included in the 2010 catalogue ;D
They are actually listed as projects for release in 2012-3.
What's really lacking in that list is a continuation of their gorgeous Badings series, one of the most valuable series they are involved in!

There's certainly no sign of that, sadly.
I can only express my similar disappointment :(
All I can say is that these forthcoming releases make up a mere fraction of what is planned...
Of course...I understand that :)
I have often thought that Burkhard Schmilgun has the best job in music ;D ;D
This is, indeed, a wonderful list - I am, however, concerned at the absence of any mention of the Jadassohn symphonies which were listed as upcoming in one of the previous catalogues but seem to have disappeared altogether now. Do you know anything, Alan?
Only that they will definitely be released...
Thank you. Patience is a virtue!

Thank you. Patience is a virtue!
An over-rated virtue in my opinion ;D
(but that's just because I don't possess very much of it ;D)
With cpo it's essential. However, when you look at what they've released over the years...
IMO cpo is a truly fantastic label and we owe people like Burkhard Schmilgun many thanks. Cpo dares to release (very) unsung classical music. I wonder how many of those CD's will be sold over the years. A few hundreds each? Is this profitable for cpo? Well, cpo isn't certainly Santa Claus and must make some profit, maybe with other businesses as well. Never mind, we must be very grateful.
I'm most excited by the forthcoming release of another Röntgen CD with symphonies Nos. 5 (1926), 6 (1928) and 19 (1931), Raff's String Quartets 2 & 3 and Van Gilse's Symphonies 3 & 4. For those members who are not familiar yet with Schumann's Preis-Symphony, this is a most wonderful, powerful youth work, full of memorable tunes (especially in the first 3 movements). Something to look forward to!
I am pleased to see that CPO will be issuing some more Hausegger, including the Symphonic Poem "Barbarossa". The "Natursymphonie" I found a very impressive work :)
Disappointed though that there is still no completion of their Reznicek symphonic cycle-Nos. 3 and 4 are still outstanding. Admittedly, these two can be obtained on an old Koch cd.
I note too that they are releasing the Irgens-Jensen Symphony. This will make the third version of the work to make it to cd-the Naxos version came out recently. This seems a case where the delays in issuing past recordings means that very occasionally CPO has been caught up with by other companies.
However, let not my comparative disappointment cloud my ongoing vast admiration for one of the most enterprising companies we have, if not the most enterprising company :) :)
Myself I am glad that Tansman's pieces for piano and orchestra will be available. I do have his Concert Piece and Concertino but not on commercial CD. Also his two piano concertos are very interesting. I believe that starting a new thread of Tansman could be desirable

I too often find the cpo catalogue difficult to find online. However, for a company CHARGE for a piece of publicity material like this is, I think, completely wrong.
Well, you get a free CD with it...
Indeed. One filled with Horn Concertos by Rosetti and these are worth listening once in a while. Together €2.99 only and that's not bad.

Well, I suppose that softens the blow a little. I quite like Rosetti....
Likewise here, for all that he, Kozeluch etc. are outside the orbit of this forum. Several really, really good composers not well-known from that period, he was one of them, and kudos to cpo (and others) for recording their music...
I got my CPO CD with Tansman's music. I strongly recommend it. Two concertante works have their commercial premier here. Konzertsuck for left hand was composed for Witgenstein - famous of ordering concertos for left hand. The pianist did tot played it however and the piece was not performed up to 2009 or so. Orchestral part has been reconstructed by Piotr Moss - contemporary Polish composer. In Concertino of 1932 one can hear reminiscences of his Pf cto no. 2. By the way it is worth to be persented here in our forum - must check whether I have off radio recording. Cto was issued here ca. 20 years ago on a CD (with Marek drewnowski) that is sold out for years. There exist another recording of ca. 2005 - but cannot recall the label (not Polish one) and performer.
I am interested to find out that so many members have obviously bought new CPO releases which are not yet available in the United Kingdom. It used to be my practice to buy new releases from the company itself immediately on release. I now wait the extra two months until they come out here in Britain in order to save money.
Can these new releases be obtained anywhere else including any saving ??? Those of us now retired need to conserve our finances ;D ;D

I've just checked the costs for postage at the cpo website, to UK it is 5.99€. If you order new cpo releases within the first
month after the original German release date from them, you can save some 20% per item, so that should be quite attractive.
This depends - of course - on the exchange rates between € and GBP, which have been quite good for German customers
like me when buying directly from Dutton, Hyperion or Chandos :-).

Even with their reduced initial price new CPO releases from the company are £12.36(14.99 euros) + postage.
MDT are selling new CPO cds at £9.95 + less postage obviously.
I can wait ;D

Thank you Dundonnell for reminding me the CD with Tansman's pf Cto no. 2. I do not have it and wonder how it could sound? I consider the version with Marek Drewnowski as a amodel. Not strange because it was the first one I heard.
Years ago I exchanged few letters with Aleksander Tansman asking him about the reocrdings of his ctos (that was in late 70s when no. 2 was played here by Drewnowski with one of our orchestras - don't remember which one. He recorded the piece later for Polish Radio archive and it was issued on CD in early 90s). And Tansman replied that in late 20s or early 30s during his all-over-the-world tournee both concertos were recorded in US with himself playing. Perhaps there exist somewhere those disks (even not LPs because it was long before LP era).
Greilsammer recorded the Concerto also for the WDR (in 2007 I think) with Israel Yinon conducting.

You mean other recording than for Naive? - http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/Drilldown?name_id1=127029&name_role1=1&bcorder=1&comp_id=377860 (http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/Drilldown?name_id1=127029&name_role1=1&bcorder=1&comp_id=377860)
Yes, the WDR did a - so far - noncommercial recording with Greilsammer. Israel Yinon conducted the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie. I recorded in 2007, the Naive recording was released in 2010.
I have a suspicion: couldn't it be possible that cpo considered a co-production with the WDR? They may have waited just a bit too long, so Greilsammer did it with another company...
Well, just a wild speculation! ;D
or cpo has another Tansman CD waiting for release with Pf ctos 1 and 2 plus Suite and Partita for 2 pianos and orchestra what would be the complete pf&orch. of Tansman?
What a dreamer I am :)
I only just noticed the Griffiths-conducted Tansman piano CD cpo does have after looking when you said that. How interesting. And only released last month, it would seem. Neat.
When Deutschlandradio broadcast the Tansman works which were just released by cpo (I think it was in 2009) they mentioned that these works would soon be available. They didn't talk about another Tansman project. But then, this was Deutschlandradio and the 2nd Concerto was produced by WDR. So, who knows! :)
