Sofie Vanden Eynde - La chambre bleue - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Ceremonies, both festive and solemn, lie at the heart of all the works in this program devoted to German music of the 17th century, beginning with music by Heinrich Schütz and ending with Johann Sebastian Bach. These occasional works make frequent use of brass instruments, whose sound is both the foundation and the identity of the Inalto ensemble. This 17th century tradition is reflected in Beethoven's Aequales for trombone quartet; these are presented here together with their sung texts. Inalto aims to explore both vocal and instrumental music, bringing them to a sort of dialogue. Album Tracks 1. Equale NR. 1 (Miserere), Woo 30 2. Equale NR. 3 (Amplius), Woo 30 3.

Alexander Gadjiev's album Legends takes listeners on a journey through the timeless legends and stories hidden within music, revealing it's power to conjure entire worlds. In Debussy's La cathedrale engloutie, ghostly bells rise from a submerged cathedral, bringing a Breton myth to life. Liszt's Funerailles rages with thunderous chords, evoking a battle against mortality, whilst Musorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition unfolds a vivid tapestry of Slavic folklore and European scenes. Prokofiev's Legende tells an enchanted tale of light and shadow, and Scriabin's Sonata No. 9 (Black Mass) immerses us in an eerie, otherworldly soundscape. Franck's Prelude, Fugue et Variation offers a sublime reflection on the soul's journey, while Bach-Siloti's Prelude in B minor resonates like a timeless, universal hymn. The Italian-Slovenian pianist has designed this programme to offer listeners a profound and mythical experience. Album Tracks 1. cathédrale engloutie (Préludes - Book I. No. 10) 2.
