Sarah Chang - Nocturne No. 20 in C-Sharp Minor

Cathédrales de Paris – Six Méditations Symphoniques is an immersive orchestral journey through the spiritual, architectural, and musical heart of Paris. Each movement is dedicated to one of the city’s most iconic churches—Notre-Dame, Sacré-Cœur, Saint-Sulpice, Sainte-Chapelle, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, and La Madeleine—capturing its unique atmosphere, history, and sonic character.
Blending the monumental grandeur of Saint-Saëns’ Organ Symphony, the luminous harmonies of Debussy, the sacred lyricism of Fauré, and the soaring theatrical spirituality of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Pie Jesu, this suite moves from the solemn toll of cathedral bells to the shimmering light of stained glass, from chant-like intimacy to blazing organ-and-orchestra climaxes.
Recorded in a virtual cathedral acoustic with expansive dynamic range and rich instrumental detail, these meditations are at once reverent and cinematic—an ode to Paris’ timeless sacred spaces and the human spirit they continue to inspire.

Eleni Karaindrou - Adagio (Oboe Solo)

Chopin Prelude Op. 28 No. 16

***English Lyrics***

Time has darkened every sky
The wind is cold as winter,
The birds have flown away.
Why are we so far apart?
The journey home goes on forever.
And here without you, a storm is raging.
A storm of doubt and fear for us.
I hear the voices
They say that we must overcome this.
We'll find a morning sky that's bright and cloudless.
Beyond the storm
Our love will live
How would I bear the silence at night
When I lie without you, in darkness
Where would I be? If not with you?
Somewhere in time
Searching an empty sky for you
I'd fly alone forever.
Beyond the storm
Our love will live
And we will rise forever
Sailing beyond the storm clouds and rain
The sky is clearing
Our love is soaring.
I wish this day would never end.
And in this moment,
I see you smiling through the darkness.
I see the shining light of dawn in your eyes
Somehow we found our way again
We ride the wind together
Leaving behind the storm clouds forever.
Where would I be, if not with you?
Somewhere in time,
Searching an empty sky for you.
I'd fly alone forever.
Beyond the storm, we rise again...
Beyond the storm, our life begins
We ride the wind together
Sailing through clouds forever
Beyond the storm.

With 45 world premieres to its credit and 100+ concert works played throughout the United States, South America, and Europe, the iconoclastic Beo String Quartet does what it loves best: playing classical repertoire, contemporary, rock, and experimental music. From the Latin “to make happy,” Beo started out as a lark. Two Mexican-American brothers, Jason Neukom and Sean Neukom, decided to record a song entitled “Happy, Happy,” composed by Sean, but for that they would need two more players. And so in 2015 the Beo String Quartet was formed. Touring the world, composing, performing, recording, teaching, and having fun, Beo has since then founded Beo Publishing, built a recording studio, and started its own recording label, NeuKraft Records.
