Several other Reference recordings (not least Honeck's luminous pairing of Bruckner's Symphony No. 7 and Mason Bates's Resurrexit from Pittsburgh) have enjoyed a surge of interest, thanks in part to our special offer marking the US label's fiftieth birthday, whilst other popular titles include Katia and Marielle Labèque's celebration of their first 55 years as a duo (more on this one next week...), Mahan Esfahani's outstanding set of Bach's complete keyboard concertos with Britten Sinfonia, and the first instalment of Alina Ibragimova and Cédric Tiberghien's second cycle of the Beethoven violin sonatas.
