Subkolektion: Quartet The first CD of the Ying Quartet's acclaimed Life Music series. LifeMusic is a series of commissions from established or emerging American composers and each work draws on a different aspect of American life.
Life Music
We have undertaken a long-term project we call Life Music that connects the music we make with the American experience and issues of our time. With the support of the Institute of American Music, we commission two works per year, one from an established and one from an emerging composer. Each composer is asked to write a quartet that is inspired by some dimension of the American experience - perhaps a literary, historical or musical source or a significant and enduring issue. With these commissions, we seek to produce an ongoing series of works from living American composers that is not only inspired somehow by life in America, but also reflects the highest standards of musical excellence.
The idea of LifeMusic grows directly from the experience of the Ying Quartet. Our mission has always been twofold: to make classical music a relevant and vital part of American culture in all its diversity and to do so with the highest standards of artistic integrity. Whether we are performing in Carnegie Hall or the White House, teaching at the Eastman School of Music or spending a week in Helena, Montana, the Quartet is committed to exploring the many ways in which great music can impact and transform our daily lives. LifeMusic is intended to be suitable both in the concert hall and in community settings as an effective manifestation of that powerful connection between music and life.

Subkolektion: Cello Stradivarius is very proud to present Antonio Vivaldi’s masterpiece in a new recording. Il Tempio Armonico rediscovers the deepest essence of The Four Seasons with a performance based on the original manuscripts and carried out 'a parti reali', with arpa doppia and harpsichord as continuo. The outcome is a performance that succeeds in giving back the original freshness, charm and grace of Vivaldi’s masterpiece.
The CD is enriched by two other Concertos by Antonio Vivaldi: Concerto Madrigalesco RV129 and Concerto in C major RV114.
Since its foundation in 1999, Il Tempio Armonico, led by Alberto Rasi, aims for authenticity in performance practice and to re-create music's original appeal and vitality. The musicians of the ensemble are enriched by playing with numerous world-renowned groups and soloists including T. Koopman, J. Savall, M. Huggett and G. Carmignola. |

Kolektion: Cello CollectionSubkolektion: Cello The F major ’cello/piano Strauss sonata belongs to his youthand, together with the Eb violin sonata of a few years later, is amanifestation of adolescent high spirits. (For this reason it was hightime we committed this to disc sooner rather than later.) His fatherFranz was a horn player in the Munich Opera Orchestra and hismother was an heiress of a famous brewing family so it was throughhis father he grew up steeped in the prevailing musical atmosphere.Franz Strauss was a musical conservative and this, perhaps, is whyhis son’s early works adhere so strongly to classical compositionalprocedure. Despite the obvious influences of Mendelssohn, andespecially Brahms, there is nonetheless an individual voice fromthe outset characterized by a fleetness of touch and sense of thetheatrical which pre-echo his astonishing achievements in the fieldof Opera. |

Kolektion: Christmas MusicSubkolektion: Piano Warum es gut ist, alte Weihnachtslieder neu zu hören
Wenn sich Schneeflöckchen leise rieselnd ans Fenster setzt, die Glocken süß erklingen und am Baum die Lichter brennen, dann ist - so verheißen es die Lieder - Weihnachten. Üblicherweise hören wir Weihnachtslieder als Klangkulisse auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt oder in der Schnäppchen-Ecke im Kaufhaus. Verkaufsstrategie ist hier: weichgespülte Melodie. Doch spätestens am Nikolaustag haben wir diese Hintergrundsmusik satt.
Auf der Raumklang-CD „Engelslicht und Dornenschatten“ mit neunzehn ausgewählten Weihnachtsliedern kann und muss man hinhören. Die zum Teil altbekannten Lieder kommen uns dabei merkwürdig neu zu Ohren. Indem Christine Maria Rembeck ihnen nachlauscht, die Melodie nur in kleinen Nuancen verändert, einzelne Textpassagen herausgreift und sie durch ihre eigene Klavierbegleitung neu interpretiert. Engelsgleich berührt uns der Gesang Christine Maria Rembecks, eingebettet in das breite Klangsprektrum des Klaviers und ergänzt durch die warmen Celloklänge Emilia Gliozzis.
Lieder für eine stille Weihnachtszeit

Emilia Gliozzi - Violoncello, Celesta / violoncelle, célesta |

Subkolektion: Saxophone Improvisationen in faszinierender Akkustik für Saxophon, Violine, Cello, Flöten, Percussion, Fahrräder...
In den unterirdischen Gemäuern eines alten ehemaligen Wasserspeichers am Wasserturm Berlin Prenzlauer Berg entstanden die Tonaufzeichnungen für diese CD.
Eine einzigartige Akustik mit ungewöhnlichem Klangverhalten sowie natürlichen Echo- und Richtungseffekten gaben Anstoß für Improvisationen mit akustischen Instrumenten und Stimme.
Die sechs Musiker aus den Bereichen der klassischen Musik und des Jazz haben sich eigens für diese Produktion zusammengefunden. |
