A Nonesuch Retrospective (7CD Box Set)
- Shrink-wrapped
Nonesuch Records releases Henryk GÃ³recki: A Nonesuch Retrospective, a seven-disc box set containing all Nonesuch recordings of GÃ³recki worksâ€”Lerchenmusik; Symphony No. 3; String Quartets Nos. 1, 2, and 3; Miserere; Kleines Requiem fÃ¼r eine Polka; Harpsichord Concerto; and Good Nightâ€”as well as the first recording of the late composer's final work, Symphony No. 4, Tansman Episodes, on January 22, 2016.

The recording of Symphony No. 4, available both in the box and individually, was made during the 2014 world premiere performance at Royal Festival Hall with co-commissioner London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Andrey Boreyko. The piece, which pays homage to GÃ³reckiâ€™s fellow Polish composer Alexsander Tansman, was incomplete at the time of GÃ³reckiâ€™s 2010 death and thus missed its previously scheduled premiere. However the score had precise indications for orchestration, which GÃ³reckiâ€™s son Mikolaj, also a composer, used to complete it. The Daily Telegraph said the piece "caps GÃ³recki's reputation as an orchestral composer, but it also contains some surprises. The music â€¦ features some brutal juxtapositions of massively powerful music with slow, intimate passages for solo instruments, including prominent parts for piano and organ."
