The best of the year: 2013 Classics with Classic Highlights What do Simon Rattle, Jonas Kaufmann, Yundi, Philippe Jaroussky, Joyce DiDonato or Vilde Frang have in common? That's right: they all scored big hits in classical music this year and signify a fascination with concertos, symphonies, chamber music or opera. All of them, together with many colleagues, make up the 2013 Classical double-CD programme - a showcase of the year's best classical music. 34 tracks featuring the best, the most successful and the most current from the scene. The programme includes opera with Angela Gheorghiu, Rolando Villazón, Jonas Kaufmann, Joyce DiDonato, Magdalena Kozena, Philippe Jaroussky and Maria Callas, who is still considered a superstar decades after her death. Trumpeter Alison Balsom, flutist Emmanuel Pahud, pianists Yundi and Alexandre Tharaud, violinist Vilde Frang and cellist Mario Brunello are a diverse group of concert soloists. Martha Argerich and Renaud Capuçon and one of today's finest string quartets, the Artemis Quartet, present cutting-edge chamber music. A number of masters are represented, from the current stars on the podium to the greats whose historic recordings are still very successful: alongside Simon Rattle and "his" Berlin Philharmonic, Vasily Petrenko and Otto Klemperer are thus represented. The composer Karl Jenkins, who has made it big in the charts, is behind the successful new classics, the Englishman John Wilson behind the fantastic rediscovery of the great Hollywood film musicals.
