Bru Zane future plans

[Christopher]

It is said on the Palazzetto Bru Zane website about Saint-Saëns's "Déjanire": Recording for the 'French opera' series - Bru Zane Label

Yes, just no info (that I can see) about what or when.

 BERTIN's Fausto (Rousset, concert on June 20th 2023 at the TCE in Paris) will be released in the usual form on 26 January 2024.

[Alan Howe]

An enterprising release, but I'm not impressed by the excerpts I've heard - so far.

The vocal score of the Holmès opera is up (well, ok, has been up for 14 years.), though I notice that Wikipedia is unusually POV about it even as it quotes contemporary negative critics. Maybe the editors of that article should wait until after the Dortmund production

Camille Saint-Saëns' Déjanire is on the way! To be released on 12th April 2024.

See bru-zane.com/en/pubblicazione/dejanire/ for details.

Very good news - thanks!

Hurrah! Thank you for this update BerlinExpat.

I think that's now all Saint-Saens operas recorded?

Following some of the recent posts at UC on Bru Zane recordings, worth noting are some forthcoming recordings, not yet mentioned on this forum I believe, which will tickle some members' fancies. You can find out more towards the end of their 2024-25 season booklet (from pages 94-99).

Recordings include:

• Offenbach: La vie parisienne
• Massenet: Grisélidis
• Bizet: Djamileh
• 'The Unknown Bizet' (including: Vasco de Gama; La mort s'avance; Le retour de Virginie; Le Golfe de Baïa; etc)

Other recordings mentioned in the booklet (with no official release dates, as yet, as far as I can tell) include works for cello and orchestra by Franchomme, Ropartz, Dubois, Caplet, Widor, Schmitt, etc - see page 11 of the booket.

What a fantastic institution this is!
