- "Because" - American countertenor Reginald Mobley is most known as a rising figure in baroque music, but this album showcases him a new light as he lends his velvet voice to spirituals from composers like H. T. Burleigh and Florence Price
- "Rautavaara & Martinů: Piano Concertos" - pianist Olli Mustonen joins the Lahti Symphony Orchestra under Dalia Stasevska to present the third piano concertos of eclectic Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavaara and Bohuslav Martinů
- "Shostakovich: Symphonies 6 & 15" - Gianandrea Noseda and the London Symphony Orchestra put together two contrasting symphonies from this great Russian composer, highlighting the trademark characteristics of his music that range from ferocious to cool and coy
- "Dutilleux & Dusapin" - two unfrequented works for cello and orchestra anchor this album from French cellist Victor Julien-Laferrière and the Orchestre National de France: Henri Dutilleux's mystical Tout un monde lointain and Pascal Dusapin's Outscape
- "Im Freien" - pieces by Schumann, Ravel, Liszt, and Bartók are paired with lesser-known works by Draeseke and Schulz-Evler in this second album from Russian pianist Zlata Chochieva, who plays this music like it's poetry
