About this product

The Voce Quartet writes InchPlaying the demanding and constantly shifting string quartet repertory is enough to fill up four lives. Buoyed up by this heritage, we wanted to explore less well-known territories. In the early years of the twentieth century, Bartok and Kodaly roamed the villages of Hungary and Romania, collecting, transcribing and recording hundreds of folk tunes and songs. Building on a number of encounters with leading figures of jazz and world music, we asked five instrumentalist-composers to write us pieces inspired by musical worlds to which they feel close. In addition to these new compositions, we wanted to record Escalay by the Egyptian oud player Hamza el Din who died in 2006, a nod to the Kronos Quartet whose approach is an inspiration to us.Inch The Voce Quartet is Sarah Dayan and Cecile Roubin (violins), Guillaume Becker, and Lydia Shelley.

Paul Kletzki - Schumann The Four Symphonies   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The first complete Schumann symphony cycle on disc, this set was recorded in Tel Aviv in 1956 by one of the most highly respected conductors of the post-war period. Paul Kletzki (1900-1973) brings out the fundamental strangeness and feverish excitement of Schumann's orchestral writing. His readings of these iconic works are key to understanding the path they have travelled towards the recognition they enjoy today.

Sunbeam Sound Machine - Double Magic - Eco-Green Colored Vinyl   - VINYL LP

Double Magic, the fourth full-length album from Sunbeam Sound Machine, sees multi- instrumentalist and producer Nick Sowersby expand on his signature sonic palette. Retaining the sparkling guitars and introspective lyrics from previous releases, the songs of Double Magic are built upon a bedrock of four-to-the-floor rhythm drumming and percussion. From 2014's debut full-length Wonderer, through 2019's Goodness Gracious to 2022's Possum, Sunbeam Sound Machine has amassed over 50 million streams from a dedicated global fanbase. Wonderer's American on the Echo Drug Recordings tag helped establish a particularly strong following in the USA, which led to a successful headline tour in April 2025, with sold out shows on both coasts. Double Magic is by far the most energetic and concert-ready record of Sowersby's career, with more Australian and international dates to come.
