It’s admittedly rare to hear contemporary classical music that delivers a shot of energy and drive like a cup of coffee: strong enough to wake you up, but in a way that is still pleasing to the senses. ADOLPHUS HAILSTORK: CHAMBER WORKS boasts exactly this rare and invigorating combination — and the energetic performance by The Harlem Chamber Players adds an extra boost on top.

In the second installment of its project, the duo Les Connivences Sonores is once again devoting itself to the astonishing original repertoire for flute and harp of the "post-Debussy era". The most representative works from various genres have been collected in order to liberate this corpus, rich in style and color, from its shadowy existence and to make the various faces of this combination visible.

This is the second edition of the collaboration between ACT and Château Palmer—one of the most legendary Grands Crus from Bordeaux’s Left Bank. This time, Château Palmer itself became the exclusive recording venue for an equally exceptional ensemble. TRIO features internationally acclaimed bassist, cellist, and composer Lars Danielsson, alongside two jazz greats from the North: Finnish trumpeter Verneri Pohjola and British guitarist John Parricelli. The music captures the unique atmosphere of the château, reflecting the tranquility, beauty, and intimacy of the recording setting. This album vividly brings to life the original vision behind the ACT and Château Palmer collaboration: to capture the magic that occurs when extraordinary artists converge in an extraordinary place.

Storyville Records proudly presents the previously unreleased live double album, 'Jazz Club Montmartre - CPH 1988', by the legendary French pianist Michel Petrucciani. Recorded during a memorable performance at Copenhagen's Jazzhus Montmartre on July 3rd, 1988, the album captures Petrucciani in the company of two jazz icons, Gary Peacock on bass and Roy Haynes on drums. While the trio only came together for a brief European tour in the summer of 1988, the chemistry they shared on stage was undeniable. The trio, propelled by a studio session the previous autumn, radiates synergy, as they explore six of Michel's original compositions with a sense of grace and spontaneity. On this recording, listeners will rediscover Petrucciani's unique lyrical universe, as well as his reverence for modern jazz icons, paying tribute to Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, and Paul Bley with special arrangements of classics like Someday My Prince Will Come, Mr. K.J. and Turnaround. From the explosive energy of "She Did It Again" to the introspective beauty of "Autumn Leaves", Petrucciani's virtuosic playing reveals a rare sense of urgency, joy, and an unrelenting passion for life.

Greta Van Fleet Raised on a steady diet of classic FM vinyl, Greta Van Fleet employ an earworm-heavy blend of hard rock and blues. Emerging in the mid-2010s while the bandmembers were still in their teens, the sibling-led group's brawny style evoked both the Who and Led Zeppelin, with the latter act looming large due to frontman Josh Kiszka's sonic similitude to Zep crooner Robert Plant. Choice placement in a 2017 episode of Showtime's Shameless drove the fiery single "Highway Tune" up the charts, and by 2018 the band was appearing on everything from The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to Elton John's Academy Award Party.

Cutterpillow is the third studio album by the Philippine alternative rock band Eraserheads, released on December 8, 1995 through BMG Records (Pilipinas), Inc.

The album opens with a triptych based of adaptations of ancient Gaelic poems, Reincarnations by Samuel Barber, known for his opulent, post-romantic language as expressed in his famous Adagio for Strings.Jeff Beal, one of Hollywood's most prolific and respected composers, wrote The Salvage Men, based on texts by Oscar Wilde and contemporary Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Kay Ryan.

Der Schweizer Jugendchor präsentiert zu seinem dreissigjährigen Jubiläum ein Album mit Werken von drei bedeutenden Schweizer Komponisten. Bislang gibt es kaum Aufnahmen von einem der grossartigsten Werke von Frank Martin, der Messe für zwei vierstimmige Chöre. Sie gilt als eines der beliebtesten und wohl auch schönsten geistlichen Chorwerke für a cappella-Gesang des 20. Jahrhunderts. Der Schweizer Jugendchor hat sich unter der künstlerischen Leitung von Nicolas Fink mehrere Jahre intensiv mit diesem Werk beschäftigt und dieses schon mehrmals im Konzert aufgeführt. In Hommage an Frank Martin zu dessen 50. Todestag im November 2024 hat sich der Chor zum Ziel gesetzt, unter der Aufnahmeleitung von Michaela Wiesbeck diese Messvertonung einzusingen, die künftig als Referenz gelten soll. Ergänzt wird das Album mit Kompositionen von zwei weiteren Schweizer Komponisten, mit dem «Kleinen Psalter» von Willy Burkhard und einer Auftragskomposition von Cyrill Schürch, die auf dem Genfer Psalter basiert.

The fourth step in our Renaldo re-issue programme and this time we have a very special item for you: Title In Limbo is an album that was recorded with The Residents in San Francisco in 1981.The bands played a very experimental jam session together and went back to these recordings 2 years later, in 1983. Title In Limbo finally came out in November of that year on vinyl. 1998 saw the first complete CD release as a numbered limited edition on Ralph America, copies of which are scarce and now collectors’ items. But that CD differed from the vinyl in that some tracks had short fade ups applied to them which did not truly reflect the original release. So we are excited for the first time on CD to now offer this album re-mastered with all tracks fully restored to their originally recorded states. Also included is a booklet with rare photographs and of course the lyrics for all the songs. In this case, all Klanggalerie can say to you is: Buy or die.

The Beatles’ revolver has become a new era album that uniquely identifies what it was. The music nature of the Beatles that extended the Oldies of the 50’s left the residue up to around “BEATLES FOR SALE”, the treatment of the world is idle, and actually “HELP” has “four people The idol “is given to the title. But the high artistic glimpse of that “HELP” was deepened with “RUBBER SOUL”, indicating that the Beatles were becoming an existence that does not fit within the idol category of one. Until then, I had been doing a tour in parallel with recording, but after stopping the tour in 1966, I will combine the styling of studio work and make ‘Sargent Peppers’. This album gets a high reputation both inside and outside, but it seems that “revolver” was the reason for its production. Indeed there are also reasons for time, but there are many songs that are difficult to reproduce on the stage with the technology at the time, without having played one song from the “revolver” at the stage. The “Paperback · Writer” which was the same period recording that was only released as a single was only played on the 1966 tour, “Rain” on the reverse side uses reverse rotation of the tape It was impossible. The Beatles must have perceived the real pleasure and entertainment of studio production with ‘revolver’. It should have thought that if it takes more time it will be able to create a more dense album. That was connected to Sargent Pepper’s discontinuance of the tour activity afterwards.

Interesting package for Beatles fans - a five disc set of all of the Beatles acetates, from "Ain't She Sweet" through the Let it Be period. Disc five is a WBCN radio show from September of 1969, which was basically a broadcast of the Glynn Johns mix of "Let it Be," often known as Kum Back. This album was out long before the official "Let it Be" album, even receiving a review in Rolling Stone.

Many of Frank Sinatra’s best-loved tracks were recorded in the days of 1-track monaural (which is not a natural ambient sound). Although he re-did some of them over the years, the originals stand alone for their vocal quality. Now, for the first time—thanks to some cutting-edge new audio technology—the mono masters have been transformed into STEREO. The songs now “breathe”, you hear more details in the original music and Sinatra comes alive as never before! It’s like the difference between an old b&w TV set and a new 4k color model.

2 All time great classic albums. Now digitally mastered on 1 compact disc.
