The ‘Chandos Sound’ has become a benchmark for quality, renowned alike among artists and critics around the globe. From its inception, Chandos has specialised in recording British music, and in bringing lesser-known (and unknown) music to public attention. Released to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the label, this handsomely packaged 40-disc set comprises 40 complete recordings from Chandos’ extensive catalogue. Each of the four decades is represented, and each recording has been hand-picked by the Managing Director, Ralph Couzens, because it represents a turning point, or ‘Landmark’, in the development of the label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eArtists\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDmitri Shostakovich Jr. (piano), James Thompson (trumpet), Stephen Hough (piano), Lynne Dawson (soprano), Ian Partridge (tenor), Michael George (bass), Lydia Mordkovitch (violin), Christopher Plummer (narrator), Celia Nicklin (oboe), Ian Watson (organ), Nigel Kennedy (violin), Peter Pettinger (piano), Sarah Connolly (Dido), Gerald Finley (Aeneas), Lucy Crowe (Belinda), Patricia Bardon (Sorceress), William Purefoy (Spirit), Sarah Tynan (2nd Woman), John Mark Ainsley (Sailor), Carys Lane \u0026amp; Rebecca Outram (Witches), Gerald Finley (bass-baritone), Jean-Efflam Bavouzet (piano), Doric String Quartet, Xiayin Wang (piano), Tasmin Little (violin), Jennifer Pike (violin), Cpl Jonathan Hill (trombone), Martin Roscoe (piano), Louis Lortie (piano), Ivan Ilic (piano), Wojciech Switala (piano), Szymon Krzeszowiec (violin), Krzysztof Lason (violin), Malgorzata Wasiucionek (violin), Arkadiusz Kubica (violin), Federico Colli (piano)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUlster Orchestra, Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra, Borodin Trio, I Musici de Montréal, Royal Scottish National Orchestra, The Philharmonia, English Chamber Orchestra, The Sixteen, Academy of St Martin in the Fields, Academy of St Martin in the Fields Chorus, Choristers of Westminster Cathedral, Black Dyke Mills Band, The King's Singers, BBC Philharmonic, Collegium Musicum 90, City of Birmingham Symphony Chorus, London Symphony Orchestra, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Choir of the Age of Enlightenment, Aquarelle Guitar Quartet, BBC Symphony Orchestra, Phoenix Chorale, Brodsky Quartet, Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, The Central Band of the Royal Air Force, Manchester Camerata, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, Silesian Quartet, Polish Cello Quartet, BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Bryden Thomson, Mariss Jansons, Maxim Shostakovich, Yuli Turovsky, Neeme Järvi, Geoffrey Simon, Harry Christophers, Sir Neville Marriner, Major Peter Parkes, Richard Hickox, Yan Pascal Tortelier, Steven Devine, Elizabeth Kenny, Charles Bruffy, Peter Oundjian, Sir Andrew Davis, Wing Commander Duncan Stubbs, John Wilson, Edward Gardner, Juanjo Mena, Gábor Takács-Nagy, Kirill Karabits, Rumon Gamba\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChandos Genre Classical\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormat -
