Tracks list

The eighth volume in the perpetually popular Linn Collection series features a
captivating selection of tracks from its catalogue of award-winning artists.
NB. Please note the digital download is not in surround sound.
The collection opens with an original song by the charismatic Joe Stilgoe whose
first studio album on Linn, New Songs For Old Souls, is a masterclass in giving
nostalgia a contemporary twist.
Linns enviable stable of pianists is represented by Gottlieb Wallisch and Ingrid
Fliter, whose second album of Chopin was named Recording of the Month and a Top
10 Chopin Recording by Gramophone. 
The symphonies of Sibelius and Schumann were given fresh impetus with recordings
by Thomas Søndergård and the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and Robin
Ticciati and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra respectively. Ticciatis Schumann was
awarded five stars by both BBC Music Magazine and The Guardian and was No. 9 in
the Sunday Times prestigious Top 100 Classical Albums of 2014 listing.
Linn champions new arrangements and premiere recordings such as the premiere of
Jonathan Mortons 2013 transcription of Shostakovichs Quartet No. 2, which was
performed by the dynamic Scottish Ensemble alongside an exceptionally lively and
fresh (Gramophone) performance of Tchaikovskys Serenade.
Released a month after winning a second Gramophone Award, John Butts solo outing
of Bachs famous 48 was named Outstanding and a significant and enduring musical
landmark by International Record Review.
Bookending the collection with jazz from the UKs top performers are the Big
Screen trio (David Newton, Tom Farmer and Matt Skelton) playing the Rogers &
Hammerstein classic from The King and I and the inimitable Claire Martin, who
signs off the collection with a track from her brilliant 2014 album Time &
Place.
