    "Between the 12th and the 14th century, the Iberian Peninsula witnessed the birth of a poetic-musical art whose richness never ceases to amaze us. Inserted in the culturally fertile European artistic movement, "the time of the troubadours", and using no longer Latin, but the language already spoken in the peninsular northwest, Galician-Portuguese, the art of troubadours and players constitutes one of the most valuable cultural heritages of the peninsular Middle Ages. Disappeared and rediscovered in the mid-nineteenth century, the troubadour songs never cease to challenge us at the literary and artistic level, giving rise to contemporary creations, which ensure their topicality. Bringing together 17 themes from around 1680 that have come down to us, this anthology aims to be a fitting tribute to the origins of language and literature in Portuguese."

    Shortly before the Swinging Sixties started in Great Britain, France was the bastion of cool European pop sounds. Sensual young French women with a lot of mascara and a dreamy innocence marked what was to go down in music history as "Les Années Yé Yé". The Yé Yé women grabbed American and British pop, gave it an unmistakably Gallic touch and provided a lively sound that still sounds good and catchy today. This collection brings together a whole bar of rare and sought-after tracks: from relaxed sound like "7 Heures Du Matin" by Jacqueline Taieb and Katy David's version of Petula Clark's "Call Me" to "Je Suis Sublime" by Elizabeth.

    Recorded late May 1968 at George Harrison's Home in Esher, UK. The Beatles double tracked Themselves on George's reel-to-reel tape machine. All tracks are acoustic versions and were considered early demos. Those songs were later recorded properly and released (1968) on "The Beatles" double LP also known as "The White Album". The only exception is track A7 which was never officially recorded by the Beatles but appeared on John Lennon's album "Imagine" with different lyrics, titled "Jealous Guy".

    Twilight is the third album of tenor Ian Bostridge and pianist Saskia Giorgini, dedicated to Robert Schumann song cycles, all written in the miraculously productive year of 1840.The album title and cover photography were inspired by the song Zwielicht, which together with Mondnacht from the same Op. 39 cycle is often considered to be theepitome of German nineteenth-century Romanticism.

    Askenazy and the Philharmonia produced a very good 6th Symphony in their previous cycle for Decca, and not a great deal has changed, except that in the Stockholm performance the tempi are all notably faster, giving the lie to the adage that conductors slow music down as they age. This lovely symphony, often neglected in concert programmes, is regarded as a masterpiece by many musicologists. In following the exultant 5th, it is drained of heroism, and it also reserves epic glory for the 7th Symphony. Yet it has fragile beauties of its own.

    The three piano trios by Leopold Kozeluch recorded here are from 1786 and 1787 and were initially published independently by their composer. Already a few months later, however, reprints appeared in Paris, London, Offenbach, Mannheim, and Speyer – which shows just how well known and popular his music was at the time. Even before, in 1781, Kozeluch enjoyed such a fine reputation that the Archbishop of Salzburg offered him the post of court organist, succeeding Mozart. The piano trios on this recording for the most part display a mirthful and relaxed character, with spirited joy of performance along with virtuosic design sometimes holding sway in the piano part.

His music includes Mannheim symphonies, songs, string quartets, trio sonatas, and a strathspey & reel. This recording features his extravagant orchestral fireworks, and his intimate chamber music recorded in his Fife home, Kellie Castle.

    Despite the outright denial in its title, death is present in every one of the songs on Never Die, the collaborative album from Midwife’s Madeline Johnston and Matt Jencik (of Implodes, Don Caballero, and Slint’s live band). Jencik held the tenderest thought imaginable when he came up with that phrase—Never Die—the fact that the people he loves eventually would, a certainty that feels impossible and remote, until the day it absolutely doesn’t. Never Die represents Jencik’s desperate bid to hold onto everyone he loves, to keep them on Earth so fiercely that they might enter the grave with claw marks on their skin. Johnston, who recognizes the grace of mortality (and who, as Midwife once sang: “I don’t wanna live forever,” over and over) serves as the spiritual guide for the album, transmuting the fear of death into an incentive to live more keenly and dearly.

    “The role of Isabella is sung to perfection by Cecilia Bartoli – a clever, independent woman with an adventurous streak” (New York Times). Bartoli’s superb performance in Gioachino Rossini’s L’Italiana in Algeri (The Italian Girl in Algiers) at Salzburg Festival, directed by the BAFTA-winning stage director duo Moshe Leiser and Patrice Caurier, is a highlight among the Rossini celebrations on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the composer’s death. The DVD captures Bartoli’s excellent performance in a rare audiovisual recording of the Italian superstar, who is one of the most successful opera singers of our time. In this vibrant comedy, every look, every hand gesture brings Isabella to life: Bartoli presents the spirited Italian woman with fire, finesse and extraordinary acting abilities – “a Rossini masterclass” (Bachtrack).

    Because of Yates’s lifelong, intense dedication to blues and roots music, he has developed a direct line from his soul to whatever instrument he holds.

On these recordings you will find him not only singing and playing guitar, but also playing drums, bass guitar, upright bass and organ.But, aside from Yates’s abilities and accomplishments, he is my son! It is the joy of my life to record and perform with him. The amazing musicians on this album are also our closest friends. We hope you will feel the love when you listen.

Forty-three years into her life, Saunders has been many people. The disaffected Cardiff schoolgirl; the teenage Las Vegas dancer; the singer in indie pop group The Pipettes. There was a turn in a Bollywood film, a nightclub tour, a stint cleaning floors in an East London pub.
