Die Edition “Ferenc Fricsay conducts Béla Bartók - The Complete RIAS Recordings” wird mit dem International Classical Music Award (ICMA) 2012 in der Kategorie Historische Aufnahmen ausgezeichnet. Die 3 CD-Box enthält bislang zum größten Teil unveröffentlichte RIAS-Aufnahmen der Jahre 1950 bis 1953 aus den Archiven des Deutschlandradio.
Also in the first quarter of 2012 audite won a German Critics’ Award (“Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik”). This time the jury awarded the price to our Klemperer Edition.
Three audite productions were included in the critics’ hotlist 2011 of the nmz (“neue musikzeitung”) among them Kirsten Flagstad (category opera), Fricsay conducts Bartók and Celibidache (category orchestral music). The Editon Celibidache was also honoured as the best complete edition. In addition audite received an award for the best repertoire policy.
On March 9th audite releases a 9 CD boxed set with recordings of Karl Ristenpart from the RIAS archives. The edition includes 29 Bach cantatas, recorded between 1949 and 1952, as premier releases.
The 9 CD box set with first releases from the RIAS archive presents the historically first attempt at a complete recording of the Bach cantatas. Karl Ristenpart built up the choral and orchestral work of RIAS Berlin from 1946 and directed the RIAS Chamber Choir and the RIAS Chamber Orchestra. With these ensembles and upcoming young singers such as Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Helmut Krebs and Agnes Giebel, Karl Ristenpart and Elsa Schiller, then head of the RIAS music department, planned a complete recording of all Bach cantatas from 1947. However, the project could not be fully realised. The 29 cantatas still in the RIAS archive today document a Bach ideal that is forward-looking even from today's perspective. Through the interpretation, which frees itself from all monumentality, the later historical performance practice was aesthetically prepared.
audite releases a milestone in the history of interpretation with the 4 CD box set The RIAS Second Viennese School Project. In close cooperation with Deutschlandradio Kultur (DLR), pieces of the 'New Viennese School' were recovered from the archive, which were recorded between 1949 and 1965 by renowned artists, most of whom were students of Berg, Schönberg or Webern or at least were in direct contact with the composers. Thanks to this authenticity and the diverse approaches to interpretation, the anthology offers comprehensive first-hand insights into the Second Viennese School.
Among the new releases, audite ventures into unfamiliar territory for the first time with the premiere recording of some orchestral compositions by the contemporary composer Moritz Eggert, bringing a pop musician on board in the shape of the singer of the group 2raum-Wohnung Inga Humpe.
