Gramophone | July 2026
This month’s cover feature marks the 200th anniversary of the death of Carl Maria von Weber, who helped to shape the birth of German Romanticism. Flora Willson paints a vivid picture of a composer of pivotal importance well beyond the handful of works that enjoy performances today. Elsewhere in the issue we talk to Manfred Honeck about his partnership with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, as well as to James Ehnes about the Seattle Chamber Music Society and their new label. In this month’s Icons, we pay tribute to the life and legacy of the American harpsichordist Scott Ross, best known for his complete Scarlatti recordings, while in Classics Reconsidered, we revisit Concerto Italiano’s recording of Monteverdi’s Fourth Book of Madrigals, which won a Gramophone Award in 1994. Plus: this month’s Collection explores available recordings of César Franck’s Piano Quintet, Contemporary Composers focuses on the music of the Canadian composer Emily Doolittle, and Musician & the Score sees pianist Lukas Genuišas talk about Tchaikovsky’s Concert Fantasia. Plus, as always, the month’s classical music releases are reviewed by our world-leading critics, with the very best being named Editor’s Choices.
