The Mammals - Rock That Babe - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Gems of baroque music spirit and virtuosity, Handel's concertos for organ and orchestra were composed to serve as intermezzos during his oratorios. Played at the time by Handel himself - he was known to be an unequaled organist, these agile, tender and poetical pieces reveal a singular color... which Gaétan Jarry will interpret on the new InchgrandInch positive organ built by Quentin Blumenroeder for Versailles at last an organ that can convey Handel's music in all it's beauty! Responding to the instrumental jubilation expressed by the Marguerite Louise musicians, Handel's motets for one voice and orchestra will bring the audience the fire and freshness of his composition, in the exceptional interpretation of the soprano Chiara Skerath, a fine finale for this program full of jubilation and grace.

Mumford and Sons return with the follow-up to their double platinum album, SIGH NO MORE, with the of their latest album, BABEL.

Lambchop brings you his 11th album, MR. M, a collection of meditations on love and loss and the detritus of everyday existence. As on past Lambchop records, many of the songs on MR. M are framed with rich strings, and there's a restrained undercurrent of distortion and discord. The songs are spacious, even dreamy, while the lyrics and titles are rich with allusions, some of them obvious, others seemingly unknowable.
