Classical Highlights for October 2025

We don't have as many classical reviews we normally would this month, due to the untimely death of our primary reviewer, James Manheim. We hope to resume covering classical music again at some point. In the meantime, there are a couple of noteworthy albums for you to sample: Alexander Gergelyfi plays a clavichord owned by Mozart himself in a recording that also features baritone Georg Nigl; Vox Clamantis once again sings music by Arvo Pärt (both pictured), this time to mark the composer's 90th birthday.
