THE NEW ALBUM BY GRAMMY® WINNING ARTIST, LAURA SULLIVAN
Album Release Date: September 24, 2021

Before Laura Sullivan's parents passed on, they taught her an important lesson: Love knows no genres. 

​Laura's mother was her first Classical piano teacher, and her father taught her Country songs he played on his guitar and harmonica. In their memory, her new album Pieces of Forever merges her Contemporary Instrumental Classical Music with emotional Ambient Americana textures.

Laura grew up in a 100-year-old farmhouse at the foothills of Mount Lassen, in Northern California. At the time her family moved in, the old home was so rundown that the plumbing and electricity barely worked. They couldn’t watch TV unless everything else in the house was turned off, or the screen would shrink to half the size.
​
But there were so many more interesting things to do than watch TV, it didn't really matter that their electricity was not great. The eleven acres were a landscape to explore, filled with old broken-down cars, furniture, and ancient junk left behind from days long ago. A rusty clawfoot bathtub filled with muddy water sat in the front yard. Attached to it with duct tape was a hand-painted sign reading "Bard Bath." 
​
It was her parent's dream to own a farm, and this is what they could afford. Their vision was to transform it into a pleasant and comfortable homestead.
​
And that is what they did. Her family put in a lot of effort on the project for many years. Their work paid off and it became a nice working ranch with chickens, ducks, cows, horses, pigs, and a throng of feisty cats and friendly dogs. Next to our walnut orchard the family nurtured a huge garden of flowers and vegetables. They reached out to their friends to share the abundance, and formed a community garden.

But life on the farm wasn’t all about work. Laura's father drove his pick-up truck all the way from Weatherford Oklahoma to California to bring home a piano once owned by Laura's Great Grandmother, Etta who had taught all her six children how to play it.
​
Now, with Etta’s piano in their house, Laura's mother taught Laura how to play it too, starting when she was four years old. A few years later, Laura’s father began driving her all the miles into town each week so that she could have private piano lessons with the distinguished teacher, Ms. Winifred Laymon. They didn't have much money, but her parents continued that gift to her of piano lessons for all the years after until she left home for college.

Laura lost her mother many years ago from cancer. Her father passed away last summer during the bleak Covid-19 pandemic lockdown after a long struggle with Alzheimer's Disease. He still remembered how to play his favorite songs on the harmonica and the guitar even after most of his words had escaped him. 

"This album is about honoring the lives of my parents, the music they made, what they taught me, and their love. I sure hope my parents would like my new album and trusting they have already heard it. This comes with so much love." -Laura Sullivan

Laura's new album 'Pieces of Forever' merges her Contemporary Classical compositions, with flavors of Ambient Americana. Composed and arranged by Laura, who plays the piano on each track, and performs one song on the album while playing a harmonica that belonged to her Dad.
​
Produced by Eric Sullivan, other instrumentalists include Gawain Mathews (Guitar), Chloe Mendola (Cello), Liz Hanks (Cello), Bryan Daste (Pedal Steel Guitar), Charles Butler (Banjo), Adam Burney (Harmonica), Caroline McCaskey (Musical Saw), and Kristin Weber (Violin).

Pieces of Forever

2. Rest Your Sorrow Movement 1

Bitcoin Billionaire from David Longoria is a fun, modern big band treatment of his song about hitting it big with bitcoin as it takes investors to the moon. or not. But it's a lot of fun and you have never heard traditional big band like this. In fact this isn't your father's big band. Unless David Longoria is your father. and it's more likely Darth Vader is. But listen to this and you'll be dancing like Fred Astaire in no time. Or your money back.

Un Plano Divino

South America pays tribute to the historic and contemporary ingenuity of musicians and composers from South America, Astor Piazzolla, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Carlos Gardel, Antonio’s father the violinist Alberto Lysy, and new work by the Argentine bandoneon master Coco Trivisonno.  

In South America, Antonio and Yarlung break new ground once again, using SonoruS Holographic Imaging technology to enable Antonio to play every part in a cello orchestra. To learn more about how SHI works, please visit yarlungrecords.com/sonorus/

This recording includes harpist Marcia Dickstein Vogler in Villa-Lobos’ Black Swan for harp and cello, flutist Anastasia Petanova in Villa-Lobos’ Jet Whistle for flute and cello, and Coco Trivisonno in three of his arrangments of Volver, Divina and Yo Te Bendigo, songs immortalized by Carlos Gardel.  Coco is one of the last living members of Astor Piazzolla’s intrepid ensemble. As standard in Yarlung albums, Antonio's performances with Marcia, Anastasia and Coco are all single takes.   

The Kodály Duo and Antonio’s father Alberto Lysy: 

Along with pianist Martha Argerich, Antonio's father the violinist Alberto Lysy remains one of South America’s most celebrated classical concert musicians.  Alberto learned this work with the composer in advance of a performance with Gaspar Cassadó in 1958. Alberto's next performance of the Duo was with Jacqueline Du Pré. Later, Antonio and Alberto became major performers of the piece.

Confessions (Contemporary American Art Song)

Song serves as one of the most important building blocks of western civilization. When a composer sets beautiful and important words to music, we hear, understand, and internalize them in a different way than we do when we read them or hear these words as speech. When performed in concert or as part of a recital, the audience not only learns something about the singer as a musician but also who they are as a person – what they believe, what moves them, perhaps even glimpsing their insecurities, struggles, fears, hopes, as well as what makes them happy.

American Art Song is experiencing a Golden Age, and for her recital, Confessions, soprano Laura Strickling has selected some of her personal favorites to offer a fascinating cross-section of the State of the Art(song). Featured are songs and song cycles by the Brazilian-American, Grammy-nominated composer, pianist, and singer Clarice Assad, cutting edge composer, vocalist, and visual artist, Gilda Lyons,  the prolific Tom Cipullo, whose World World II-based opera The Parting was premiered with Laura in the starring role as Fanni Radnoti, composer Amy Beth Kirsten whose award-winning music blends a genuine feel for pop melody with fierce expressionism and theatre, the internationally acclaimed young composer Michael Djupstrom and the Grammy-award winning Libby Larson.
