John Zorn - The Complete String Quartets - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The fringes of the desert have a way of changing a man, but the high-altitude chill of the Sierras will strip him down to his soul.Following the gritty, neon-soaked introduction of his debut, Red Leather returns with his sophomore studio album, TAHOE. If his first record was a desperate sprint through the dark alleys of the soul, TAHOE is the cold morning after-a cinematic, sweeping exploration of isolation, clarity, and the jagged edges of recovery.Named after the alpine lake that serves as both a sanctuary and a graveyard for secrets, the album navigates the duality of the landscape.The songwriting dives deep into the InchblueInch period of his life-tackling themes of sobriety, the weight of sudden fame, and the ghosts of past versions of himself. It is an album about the silence that follows the storm, and the realization that the higher you climb, the thinner the air becomes.1xLP, Single Pocket Jacket, Polylined Protective Sleeves, White Vinyl

Limited digibook packaging. 2021 . Paul Weller performed an exceptional concert with the hugely talented BBC Symphony Orchestra and award winning arranger Jules Buckley on 15th May 2021. This extraordinary performance was a first for Paul, performing with a full orchestra, and saw a quintessential selection of his vast catalogue exquisitely reworked and updated into 75 minutes of breath-taking music that was broadcast across the BBC. The setlist includes classic tracks across Paul's The Jam, Style Council and solos career. It also features choice cuts from Paul's last three studio albums (including his recent #1 albums On Sunset and Fat Pop Volume 1). All tracks are given the most sublime orchestral treatments.

The music of Francisco Correa de Arauxo, still regrettably neglected, constitutes a peak of organ literature in Spain and an exceptional bridge between the Renaissance and the Baroque. His Facultad Orgánica (1626) is both a treatise on the performance of organ music and a collection of sixty-nine pieces of outstanding quality. Three albums will give the most complete picture possible of his output, played by Bernard Foccroulle on historic organs in Andalusia and Castile. Singers and musicians from the InAlto ensemble will perform pieces by Correa alongside some of the major composers he mentions in his preface, including Josquin, Cabezón, Gombert and La Rue.
