Sabrina Fey and Bernhard Parz write of this new InchMusic for a cozy evening by candlelight, light-hearted yet sensitive, unique and interspersed with a lot of humor and clever composition - this is how we see the music of Hans Gál, a very versatile composer. The idea to record the music of the Viennese composer for a production came to us out of a curious, friendly reason Pianist Bernhard Parz and recorder player Sabrina Frey already philosophized about various musical topics while studying music at the University of Music and Performing Arts together. Years later, playing together still seemed rather difficult Sabrina Frey lived in the world of baroque music, while Bernhard Parz had specialized in the Viennese world of piano literature. However, we are both passionate musicians, so it was only a matter of time before we started looking for original literature for our specific instrument combination.

We immediately felt drawn to it and then spent a lot of time immersing ourselves in the musical world of this extraordinary composer and working out the essence of this delicate music.

The cumulative brilliance shaped by three decades of composing and performing has made appearances by Greg Reitan special occurrences. The Los Angeles based pianist has been providing the jazz, classical and film worlds with exceptional compositional work and listeners have paid special attention to his trio's well-honed live performances. It was during an October 2017 appearance at New York's Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola that the spark for Reitan's new recording, West 60th, was ignited. Inspired by the dramatic view of the city during soundcheck from the venue's perch atop Columbus Circle, Reitan wrote the waltz of the same name in his hotel room. The song became the centerpiece of his new album with longtime collaborators bassist Jack Daro and drummer Dean Koba.
