Aimer Et Perdre: To Love & Lose Songs 1917-1934

Aimer Et Perdre: To Love & Lose Songs 1917-1934 Review

This is one from the heart. The unique pre-war music of the Cajun bayous, the Carpathian Mountains of Ukraine and Poland, and the American rural countryside has been collected to narrate the human odyssey of love gained and love lost. Early songs of unbridled anticipation and desperate longing color the canvas of love, courtship, dejection and marriage... a never-ending cycle. The accompanying 60-page booklet features many rare, previously unpublished images and comprehensive lyrical translation. Three original artworks by Robert Crumb provide a backdrop for these sublime songs of passion and despair. Respectfully crafted by Christopher King and Susan Archie for Tompkins Square. 36 Songs on 2CDs

Song of the Night; Szymanowski: Violin Concerto No. 1 / Symphony No.3

Song of the Night; Szymanowski: Violin Concerto No. 1 / Symphony No.3 Review

NEW PRESTIGE EDITION: Watch out for this collector's item! - Pierre Boulez' first ever Szymanowski recording comes in a lavish hard booklet with an in-depth essay on the Polish composer as well as background on Pierre Boulez' approach to his music, original illustrations and photo material. The new prestige edition also contains an additional CD with excerpts from the rehearsal of Symphony No. 3 as well as audio interviews with Boulez in French, English and German.

Pierre Boulez honors singular Polish composer Karol Szymanowski by recording - live - the Violin Concerto no. 1 and the Symphony no. 3 "Song of the Night". Violin virtuoso Christian Tetzlaff and the Wiener Philharmoniker are peerless participants

The two orchestral works are the high-water mark of Szymanowski's impressionism, an idiom mingling the refined sonorities of Debussy, Ravel, and late Scriabin with the impassioned Romanticism of the New German School

Inspired by Persian poet Rumi, Szymanowski subtitled his Symphony no. 3 "Song of the Night" after a poem by the 13th-century mystic. Emotional, even ecstatic music conveys the poem's supernatural vision of night's unravelling of the mystery of God

Songs of the Jewish-American Jet Set: The Tikva Records Story 1950-1973

Songs of the Jewish-American Jet Set: The Tikva Records Story 1950-1973 Review

Songs of the Jewish-American Jet Set is a proud collection of the
dizzying catalog of Tikva Records, the flagship independent Jewish
record label of 20th century America.
Founded in 1947, Tikva s catalog was wide-ranging everything
from Israeli folk songs to Jewish-American swing, from klezmer pop
to cantorial singing, from Catskills comedy to key political speeches
of Jewish leaders and it became something of a Jewish Motown,
home to the Jewish music world s biggest names. Despite the fact
that Tikva s releases were a direct reflection of the major social
themes and cultural shifts of Jewish America in the 50s and 60s,
its contributions to American popular music, and Jewish musical and
cultural history, have been largely forgotten.

Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan

Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan Review

Two iconic forces that have impacted the past 50 years -- the life-saving human rights activism of Nobel Peace Prize-winning Amnesty International and the incomparable artistry of Bob Dylan -- are being saluted by musicians who contributed new or previously unreleased recordings to Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International. All of the artists, session musicians, arrangers, engineers, producers and recording studios worked pro-bono to support the human rights cause. Almost 30 tracks on the album were mixed gratis by famed engineer Bob Clearmountain. Bob Ludwig and Adam Ayan of Gateway Mastering donated their mastering services. The album cover illustration is by Grammy Award winning artist Mick Haggerty. Eight tracks were produced or executive produced by Martin Lewis, who as co-creator/producer in the 1970s of Amnesty's ongoing "Secret Policeman's Ball" benefit series, instigated Amnesty's outreach to rock musicians by recruiting and producing Pete Townshend, Sting, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Bob Geldof and others. Executive Producers for Amnesty International are Helen Garrett, director of special projects, and Karen Scott, manager of music relations.
