Various Artists - 50th Anniversary    - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Fifty years ago, Collegium Vocale Gent began a fantastic musical adventure that no one could ever have predicted. In this anniversary box, Philippe Herreweghe has selected the most beautiful Collegium recordings which have been released since he founded his own tag Phi together with Outhere in 2010. Masterpieces by Tomás Luis de Victoria, Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms and Antonín Dvorák have been brought together in an intoxicating selection in which the stunning artistic quality and versatility of Collegium Vocale Gent forms the starting point! Collegium Vocale Gent was founded in 1970 on Philippe Herreweghe's initiative by a group of friends studying at the University of Ghent. They were one of the first ensembles to use new ideas about baroque performance practice in vocal music. Their authentic, text-oriented and rhetorical approach gave the ensemble the transparent sound with which it would acquire world fame and perform at the major concert venues and music festivals of Europe, the United States, Russia, South America, Japan, Hong Kong and Australia. Since 2017 the ensemble runs it's own summer festival Collegium Vocale Crete Senesi in Tuscany, Italy.

P.O.D. - Veritas   - VINYL LP

Mascot Records is P.O.D.to announce the new studio album from hard rock icons, P.O.D., entitled 'Veritas'. Five years removed from their previous studio album, 'Circles', P.O.D. returns with arguably their hardest-hitting record yet. InchWe're still here and creating some of the best music we've ever made,Inch says guitarist Marcos Curiel. This go-round, however, P.O.D. decided to get back to the basics. InchThese songs are a throwback to me and remind me of the raw, unbridled energy of classic South San Diego P.O.D.,Inch offers bassist Traa Daniels. Written over several years, with the band typically writing a tune or two at a time in L.A. with The Heavy, 'Veritas' is a cannon shot of adrenaline to the ear drums. And for a band that has never shied away from wearing their heart on their sleeve, it's also one of the most emotionally inspired albums of their career. 'Veritas' is available everywhere on May 3rd, 2024 on LP, CD, and Digital.
