In a year when movement was restricted as never before, two musicians whose travels have been their life-blood, managed to get together to make an intense and intimate record Still Moving. Justin Adams, whose post-punk approach has been enriched by a passion for Arabic and African trance/blues, and Mauro Durante, a visionary inheritor of the Taranta roots of his native Puglia recorded live in the studio, without over-dubs. Together they found what was essential in their common sound, reaching into tradition from Italy (folk songs like Damme Nu Ricciu, classics like Amara Terra Mia) and America (Little Moses, the Carter Family classic). Original songs , like Dark Road Down find common ground between the wild pizzica rhythm of Southern Italy and trance boogie, while Djinn Pulse goes from serene instrumental minimalism to hypnotic catharsis. The title song Still Moving evokes Mediterranean migrations
as Odyssean trial with ancient frame drum, and raw electric guitar providing a starkly beautiful landscape

Still Moving

Amara Terra Mia

Une histoire d’amour entre deux illustres figures de l’Antiquité – César et Cléopâtre –, des luttes de pouvoir en Égypte : ces ingrédients pourraient à eux seuls expliquer le succès immédiat que connut Jules César à sa création en 1724 au Théâtre Haymarket de Londres.

Mais s’il est devenu l’opéra le plus populaire de Haendel, c’est avant tout grâce à son orchestration somptueuse et sa prodigieuse invention musicale. Chaque personnage est peint avec une grande finesse psychologique, en particulier Cléopâtre, l’un des plus beaux portraits de femmes de l’histoire de la musique.

Le metteur en scène Laurent Pelly place l’action dans les réserves d’un musée, au département des antiquités égyptiennes, créant des décalages savoureux entre personnages en toges et manutentionnaires qui s’affairent. Une façon ludique de casser les codes de l’opera seria, ce qui était précisément l’objectif de Haendel.

Il Belcanto è il tema di oggi a "Il catalogo è questo". L'ospite del giorno è Antonio Juvarra, che ha dedicato anni di ricerca al ripristino di una tecnica vocale italiana basata su quel principio di naturalezza che è la base del canto "a risonanza libera". Come è possibile ritrovare l'arte belcantistica? Se il canto è un mistero, qual è lo scopo dell'insegnante? Perché i trattati settecenteschi sono tanto così importanti? Perché diffidare di approcci scientifico-meccanicistici? Cosa significa "cantare sul fiato"? Che importanza ha la serenità psicologica per chi canta? Perché è così difficile trovare, oggi, voci verdiane? Sono alcune delle domande che Luca Ciammarughi porrà a Juvarra, affrontando temi centrali nel dibattito odierno sulla vocalità.
Nella seconda parte, ascolteremo alcune delle voci che, nel '900, hanno dato l'esempio di una vocalità armoniosa, caratterizzata da bellezza, morbidezza, naturale proiezione: Aureliano Pertile, Tito Schipa, Beniamino Gigli e Giacomo Lauri Volpi.

Archie Chen is a pianist who is dedicated to upholding the music of John Field. And boy, does he deliver with this recording of the "Fantaisie sur un air russe in A minor 'In the Garden.'" It's a gem of a piece that's been long forgotten, but Chen brings it back to life with his scintillating performance. He's a devil-may-care virtuoso, but he also knows when to hold back and let Field's graceful lyricism and delicate fioritura shine. It's a rousing recording that will make you want to listen to more of Field's piano music. And who knows, maybe you'll even discover some hidden depths that you didn't know were there.

Fantaisie sur un air russe in A minor 'In the Garden' by John Field (1782-1837) a hidden gem performed by pianist Archie Chen on John Field's birthday July 26th.

Fyodor Biryuchev is a pianist and composer, recipient of international awards. Fyodor is one of the most outstanding representatives of contemporary classical music in Russia. He is an extremely interesting figure in the context of modern music culture. 
Fyodor Biryuchev works in style which is called contemporary classical, it combines melodiousness and fleshpots of classics with a freedom of expression and simplicity in perception of modern music. 
The second album «By The Sea» is a new stage in the composer's work. In his new record, the author refers to the sea as a phenomenon that is closely and deeply connected with his life since childhood, as he was born and raised in the town by the sea. There are expressive and dramatic works along with gentle and deeply lyrical compositions in the album. New creative signature of the composer is distinguished by diversity, imagery and picturesque. 


‘The album «By the Sea» reflects the stories that I have heard… Coming to the sea is much like returning to your true self. In this sense nature and music have similar impact on one’s personality. The sea is both memories and exciting mystery, as well as tranquility and raging element. That is why the compositions in this album are so diverse’.
                                                                           Fyodor Biryuchev

Forest

"دیتریش بوکسته‌هوده" (۱۷۰۷-۱۶۳۹) آهنگساز و ارگ نواز آلمانی‌-دانمارکی اواخر دوره باروک است - شاید تعجب کنید اگر بگویم سبک ارگ نوازی و آهنگسازی او الهام بخش یوهان سباستین باخ بوده است! - قطعه حاضر [شاکون در می‌‌مینور] یکی‌ از معروفترین آثار ارگ بوکسته‌هوده می‌باشد که البته در سال ۱۹۳۷ توسط "کارلوس چاوز" آهنگساز مکزیکی برای ارکستر سمفونیک تنظیم شده است - همین قطعه، الهام بخش باخ برای خلق پاساکالیا ی معروف او و یوهانس برامس آهنگساز آلمانی‌ دوره رومانتیک بوده است.

شنیدن این اثر زیبا را اکیدأ توصیه می‌کنم..
