Among the many stage works that also come off as thrilling in a strictly aural model are Bartók’s opera Bluebeard’s Fort performed by Karina Canellakis and Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloe ballet performed by Aziz Shokhakimov. Le Miroir de Musique (pictured) demonstrates the flexibility of Binchois’ writing, whereas Barbara Hannigan and colleagues merge medieval chants with electronics. Sven Helbig has composed a robust requiem addressing the optimism it takes to outlast the results of warfare. And people are simply a number of the selections.
