About this product

How do we even measure time? It is sometimes said that time is as old as humankind, but of course it isn't. It's just something we created out of a need for... what exactly? Earliest known evidence suggests we were measuring time already 5000 years ago. That way we could create predictability, for example concerning planting and harvesting. From there on we could more easily schedule and organize, which then helped us building a more sustainable life. When we had found a mutual understanding of what we would call time then other systems could be developed, kind of like a third-party software. Music notation works as a fine example. Today our life is synchronized Inchto the beat.Inch Not only is every single footstep kept track of by our telephones or every breath by our smart wrist watches - even our thoughts are as good as monitored as we scroll casually through advertisements on social media. Without us even realizing, the idea of time and synchronicity is apparently encrypted so deep in our consciousness that the thought of viewing the world without it is beyond our comprehension. That doesn't change the fact that time as we understand it has not always been the same. Our ideas on time have changed throughout the centuries and will most probably continue to do so. The works on Sonic Alchemy are of composers who offer a new perspective on how we can perceive time, each in their own way Album Tracks 1. Gadalaiki (The Seasons) No. 1. Balta Ainava (White Scenery) [10 24] 2. Fratres [11 38] 3. Fantasia in D minor, K. 397 (Completed By A.E. Müller) [06 00] 4. Mozart-Adagio [06 33] 5. Fantasia in C minor, K. 475 [12 13] 6. Castillo Interior [13 07] 7. Spiegel Im Spiegel (Version for Violin and Piano) [10 24]

Jeunbeum Sohn - Jeungbeum Sohn   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Universal music, resounding philosophy, and the tragedy of fate breathtaking tales of the night are presented by the Korean pianist JeungBeum Sohn on his new GENUIN album. The winner of the ARD Music Competition and the International German Piano Award plays works by Schubert, Beethoven, and Ravel that deal with powerful, touching, and demonic finalities. Schubert's late sonata in A minor, Beethoven's Op. 111, and Ravel's Gaspard de la Nuit are no easy fare. JeungBeum Sohn, however, performs these pieces with a sweeping breadth and deep earnestness while never neglecting pianistic brilliance and richness of color. Equally impressive and moving.
