About this product

After the success of their CD Still Schubert, the Alfama Quartet, in it's new configuration, records a new album devoted to the exacerbated romanticism in the music of Mendelssohn and Schumann. So Far so Close, this shout, this cry that ruptures sound-space. Far Fanny and Close Clara or the contrary. Two female names inseparable from the names of Mendelssohn and Schumann, united here in their melancholy hues and romantic exuberance like a long love letter highlighting the sorrow of separation. Patrick Leterme's Quartet, solar, ethereal and choral, fuses the tessituras of the four members of the mysterious and subtle formation that is the string quartet. The programme of the Quatuor Alfama brings out the diversity of the relational ties, thereby revealing it's own share of intimacy.

Bach,J.S. / Bax - Lullabies for Mila   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Alessio Bax dedicates an album to his daughter Mila, compiling works from his past Signum albums - including performances with Lucille Chung and Southbank Sinfonia - as well as a new recording of the Nocturne from Grieg's Lyric Pieces. Alessio begins the album with a touching dedication InchThis album is not only a carefully curated playlist of soothing classics to calm a baby and perhaps make him or her fall asleep quicker. It is also a gift from parents to their children, with the hope that they will share music with their loved ones, not just to entertain them but also to enrich their lives. It is a gift from me to other parents, so that at the end of what might have been a challenging and difficult day, they might put their feet up and enjoy a seamless stream of great music spanning three centuries. And it is a little gift from me to my daughter that I hope will enable me, one day, to say thank you for everything she has done and will continue to do to for us and for this world.Inch
