Lee Harris - I Am Peace - Turquoise - VINYL LP

AWAKEN is an album of transformational music, a collection of songs for the heart and soul, and a soundtrack for the spiritual seeker journeying home and navigating the full humanity of this moment in history. A coming of age of Lee Harris and Davor Bozic's musical partnership, AWAKEN is a ripening of the longstanding creative collaboration between two masters of their crafts. Davor's production is fully alive and finely attuned to the depth and subtleties of Lee's stunning melodies and soul-stirring lyrical messages. This is apparent in the evocative swell of cinematic soundscapes alongside Lee's soaring, multi-layered vocals and uplifting chorus arrangements. It is also present in the quieter moments, where the slightest sonic touches and infusions of colour perfectly complement Lee's softly-sung, soothing whispers and powerfully gentle delivery. The album, tuned to the frequency of 528Hz, Inchthe miracle noteInch, might just be that for anyone seeking a healing balm for their heavy heart and weary soul.

Alberto Ginastera is considered one of three 20th century composers that brought Argentina to the forefront of global attention, along with Carlos Gardel and Astor Piazzolla. Whereas Gardel and Piazzolla came out of the Argentine tango tradition, Alberto Ginastera is considered the most important Argentinean classical composer of the 20th century. Anchored by the engaged work of the Deutsche Staatsphilarmonie Rheinland conducted by Karl-Heinz Steffens, this is a marelous retrospective of Ginastera's development beginning with his 'first period' and the folklorically influenced Obertura para el Fausto Criollo, Op. 9 (1943) as well as the Symphonic Triptych Ollantay, Op. 17, inspired by his trip to the U.S. (1947).The Variaciones Concertantes for chamber orchestra, Op. 23 (1953) derive from the middle of Ginastera's middle period. Finally, the premiere recording of the opera Bomarzo, Op. 34 (1966/67) represents the penultimate work of Ginastera's third and final 'New-expressionist' period
