About this product

Latvian composer Peteris Vasks (b. 1946) is one of the most prominent names among living composers today. This album by the Latvian National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Andris Poga includes the first recording of Vasks' atmospheric and pastoral Oboe Concerto written for the centenary celebrations of Latvia's independence in 2018 and performed by one of today's leading oboists, Albrecht Mayer. The new concerto is coupled with two early orchestral works from the 1980s, Vestijums and Lauda - both musical manifestations from the final years of the Soviet Union when occupied Latvia started it's peaceful fight to regain the country's independence.

Smile - A Light for Attracting Attention   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

A Light for Attracting Attention - The Smile - Not The Smile as in ha-ha-ha, more The Smile as in the guy who lies to you every dayInch... so speaks Thom Yorke on the inspiration behind the name of the new trio consisting of himself, his Radiohead bandmate Jonny Greenwood and drummer Tom Skinner of UK jazz outfit Sons of Kemet. The description is borne out by The Smile's acerbic first single InchYou Will Never Work In Television Again,Inch a 2 48 blast of ragged, raw energy that moved The New York Times to rave InchOver a bruising 5/4 beat and flailing guitars climbing through three chords, Yorke snarl-sings his avenging fury at 'some gangster troll promising the moon' who'd devour 'all those beautiful young hopes and dreams,' and you can almost feel the spittle flying.Inch Additional singles InchThe SmokeInch, InchSkrting the SurfaceInch and InchPana-VisionInch - which epically closed the series finale of hit show Peaky Blinders - followed with equal critical acclaim; all are collected on The Smile's first album, A Light For Attracting Attention, produced by Nigel Godrich.
