About this product
The Ragazze Quartet has been acclaimed for their musical enthusiasm, talent, versatility and presentation. The young Dutch ensemble frequently collaborates with composers, musicians - classical or otherwise - and artists working in a variety of disciplines. In spite of it's life-affirming title, Vivere, the group's Channel Classics debut, is not exactly a cheerful disc. All three compositions refer in various ways to death. This is reflected in the key signatures of the repertoire (D minor is considered the key of death) and the programmatic content of the Schubert and Widmann quartets. The cellist actually 'dies' in the Widmann! Spectacularly well recorded, this disc presents an unusual and compelling program and introduces the world to a dynamic and exciting new ensemble.

![Marty Paich - Jazz Band Ball First Set - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/90449fb5-d996-4de4-a31d-8d3f6fff296f.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
This Marty Paich led session was intended to showcase Marty's arranging skills and artistic freedom as Mode's musical director. The purpose of this recording was to make an all valve brass + rhythm section ensemble swing. A real bloozer's delight! For the occasion, Don Fagerquist and Jack Sheldon provide the trumpet action, and Stu Williamson and Bob Enevoldsen work the valve trombones. This is pure Marty Paich at his finest. Mode 1957.

The Ragazze Quartet is a young Dutch/British string quartet acclaimed for it's musical enthusiasm, talent, versatility and dynamic presentation. On Cesko, they take us across Europe to the extraordinary land of Bohemia (popularly known as Cesko, but officially the Czech Republic), the homeland of composers Antonín Dvorák and Erwin Schulhoff. The indescribable energy of this music transports us. It's folk melodies and harmonies reveal the essence of a nation steeped in a deep cultural history. Both composers were masters of merging the old with the new and fusing a rich new musical heritage.
