We are very pleased to share with you the June 2015 issue of NEW ON NAXOS, presenting an array of exciting new releases, no less than nine of which include world première recordings! Our monthly spotlight release is the first of a six-volume cycle of orchestral works by Jean Sibelius, with the Turku Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of internationally-acclaimed conductor Leif Segerstam. 

Other highlights include the third and final volume of Paul Hindemith’s string quartets, performed by the Amar Quartet. Its earlier releases in the cycle have received critical acclaim. The complete guitar works of Sofia Gubaidulina, performed by guitarist David Tanenbaum, who has previously worked closely with Gubaidulina; the emotionally charged Holocaust Requiem of Boris Pigovat, with the Croatian Radio & Television Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Nicola Guerini; the world première recordings of award-winning composer Shuya Xu, whose music reflects his fascination with his Chinese heritage; American composer Quincy Porter’s second volume of string quartets, with the Ives Quartet, who are well known for championing unfamiliar and eclectic repertoire; and British composer Kenneth Leighton’s complete chamber works for cello, performed by acclaimed artists cellist Raphael Wallfisch and pianist Raphael Terroni.
