... Read more
Harry Gustavus Nicolai Gedda was born in Sweden in July 1925 into a musical home. His father, Mikhail Ustinov, was born in Russia and became choirmaster of the Russian Orthodox Church in Leipzig in 1928, Gedda learnt to read music and sung in a children's quartet; he also became fluent in five languages - speaking Swedish and Russian with his parents and at school he learnt German, English and French. After his family returned to Sweden he continued his singing as a boy soprano. He did not sing for two years following his voice breaking but then he found, when singing in the bath, that he had developed a light, rather high tenor. Although he had perfect pitch and loved music he did not think of making it a professional career so, on leaving high school, he joined a Stockholm bank. One day a customer, a player in the Royal Opera orchestra, heard him speak about wishing to sing and advised him to call on Carl Oehmann as he was Sweden's best teacher. Gedda chose Donizetti's bel canto classic Una furtive lagrima, Oehmann enthused that only the great Jussi Björling had ever sung it so beautifully and duly accepted him as a pupil at the age of 24. After a few months he passed the audition to study for two years at the Royal Conservatory in Stockholm on a musical scholarship. In 1952 two of his teachers, who were also the conductor and producer of the Royal Opera, decided that he should play the lead in Adam's Le Postillon de Longjumeau. After two months preparation he made his debut on 8th April and was an immediate success. News soon reached London of the Swedish sensation and he was given the chance of recording Dmitri in Mussorgsky's Boris Godunov conducted by Issay Dobrowen and starring Boris Christoff. His prowess was not limited to opera but his highly sensitive light tenor voice was suited to Bach and Karajan chose him to record the B minor mass in the same year; fifteen years later he was the choice of Klemperer. He was soon singing major roles in all the top opera houses throughout the world. He could not, though, try out new roles in minor theatres as he was too much in demand, so it was indeed fortunate that he had studied well with excellent teachers and this ensured he had a firm technical and stylistic base on which to develop each role he was offered. He was always a highly intelligent artist and he knew his vocal limitations so never took on roles which were beyond his capabilities - he sang Lohengrin but no other Wagner operas for instance. Not that these restrictions caused any lack of repertoire, on the contrary he thoroughly enjoyed the world of operetta and musical songs following his great idol Richard Tauber. Other great influences were Gigli and Schipa whose lyrical grace and delicacy Gedda always attempted to emulate. He was also the choice of the three leading sopranos - Callas, de los Angeles and Schwarzkopf - for a number of operatic recordings whilst for operetta it was Anneliese Rothenberger. This collection encompasses all areas of his career and many of his finest recordings, including numerous from his favourite composers, Mozart, Donizetti, Puccini, Bizet and Massenet for operas and Schubert (a complete Die schöne Müllerin) for Lieder. His talent for languages is covered with German, French, Italian, Russian and English operas or choral works and Lieder in those languages and Norwegian, Swedish, Finish and Spanish. Some of the German light songs and all the Russian Folksings appear on CD for the first time.

Some five years in the making, the conception of Rome actua
... Read more
Some five years in the making, the conception of Rome actually dates back even further, to the 2004 meeting of Brian Burton a/k/a Danger Mouse and Italian composer/arranger Daniele Luppi. Burton was emerging from the aftermath of the media storm around his Grey Album and beginning work on Gorillaz now multi-platinum and Grammy winning Demon Days. Luppi was amassing acclaim for his album An Italian Story, which paid tribute to the cinematic sounds that shaped his childhood, while writing music for the screen (Sex In The City, Nine, etc.) and soon thereafter contributing arrangements to Burton projects including Gnarls Barkley, Dark Night of the Soul and Broken Bells. United in their shared passion for classic Italian film music, Burton and Luppi have created a record like no other: Intense songwriting periods both together and apart and travels to Rome during which Luppi reunited for the first time in decades original musicians from the scores of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West including the legendary Marc 4 backing band and Alessandro Alessandroni's 'I Cantori Moderni' choir laid the groundwork. Recording took place in Rome's cavernous Forum Studios formerly Ortophonic Studios, founded, amongst others, by the great Ennio Morricone -- employing vintage equipment, for which Burton and Luppi would pay with bottles of wine, and making every effort to replicate the recording practices of the 1960s/70s golden age, recording live to tape, with no electronics, computers or 21st-century effects. Crucial to the completion of Rome has been the enlistment of two lead vocalists who not only do justice to but complete the three songs each written for a man and a woman. While on tour with Gnarls Barkley, Burton met Jack White and a year later, White recorded his contributions The Rose With The Broken Neck, Two Against One and The World in Nashville. White s counterpart, in a revelatory turn, is Norah Jones, who flew to Burton s L.A. studio from New York to sing on Season's Trees, Black and Problem Queen. With acclaimed director and photographer Chris Milk brought in as "Visual Director", half a decade of hard work and unstinting perfectionism would draw to a close as the album and package were completed. From Rome's opening with soprano Edda Dell'Orso's dramatic voice (the same haunting vocal presence from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly 44 years ago) gracing "Theme of Rome" to the closing strains of "The World", Rome -- for all its cinematic qualities -- is not the soundtrack to an imaginary movie, but rather a complex, nuanced pop record rife with counterpoints of intensity and darkness as well as uplift and light. (Luppi calls it "a small window on human life, touching on love, death, happiness, desperation, and the visceral connection of a man and a woman".) It's an ambitious work with a uniquely modern sound achieved through traditional, vintage means. It is, above all, a fully realized album, perfectly formed and hauntingly beautiful. Welcome to Rome.

This recording features a cappella works by American compos
... Read more
This recording features a cappella works by American composers. (Liner Notes): Sara Teasdale (1884-1933) is regarded as one of the great American lyric poets. Her lyrical style has its roots in the works of Sappho, Christina Rossetti, and Housman. Haunted by depression in later years, Teasdale took her own life at the age of 48. Many of her poems address the pain that haunted her spirit, but to the end she seemed to draw strength and hope from the stars and their permanent radiance. “There Will Be Rest,” one of her last poems, is a perfect summary of her lifelong concern for the stars and their ancient promise of peace. Frank Ticheli’s (b. 1958) choral setting is designed to capture the poem’s purity of spirit and delicate lyricism. “There Will Be Rest” was commissioned by Pacific Chorale, who gave the premiere performance at Segerstrom Hall, Orange County Performing Arts Center on May 23, 1999. The commission was made possible through the generosity of the Pacific Chorale Guild - Premiere Chapter. Adolphus Hailstork (b. 1941) is Professor of Music and Composer-in-Residence at Norfolk State University in Virginia. In “Nocturne,” he calls upon a lover to contemplate and appreciate the simple beauties of the night. The text is at first carried by the soprano, while the other parts provide an atmospheric background. Following a middle section in which all parts work over the poem, the conclusion returns to the atmosphere of the beginning. “The Cloths of Heaven” sets with rich, romantic music a contemplative poem by William Butler Yeats. Samuel Barber (1910–1981), a recipient of two Pulitzer Prizes and numerous other awards, finished “To Be Sung on the Water” on December 12, 1968. An unusual love song, it was apparently written for no other reason than his own desire to do so. The water imagery of the poem is reflected in the repeated three-note motives in the men’s voices that gently underlie the composition like placid waves under a boat, ever repeating the words “beautiful, my delight.” Barber considered adding “To Be Sung on the Water” to his opera Antony and Cleopatra but never did so. It was one of the works performed at his memorial service at St. Bartholomew’s Church, New York. Eric Whitacre (b. 1970) found inspiration for his two compositions in the Spanish poetry of Octavio Paz. Of “Water Night” the composer writes: The poetry of Octavio Paz is a composer’s dream. The music seems to set itself (without the usual struggle that invariably accompanies this task) and the process feels more like cleaning the oils from an ancient canvas to reveal the hidden music than composing. “Water Night” was no exception, and the tight harmonies and patient unfolding seemed to pour from the poetry from the first reading, singing its magic even after the English translation. “Water Night” is simply the natural expression of this beautiful poem. . . . “Cloudburst,” set to a verse entitled “The Broken Water Jar,” is another spiritual contemplation couched in water imagery. In the first half of the composition, the entire poem is sung in largely chordal fashion, but with passages of free chanting on the words, “we must sleep [with open eyes].” The second half is a “cloudburst” in which handbells and a battery of percussion paint the storm in sound as the choir sings “eyes of dream-water . . . we must sing aloud . . . the rain, the rain.” Whitacre writes: The Cloudburst is a ceremony, a celebration of the unleashed kinetic energy in all things. The mood throughout is reverent, meditative and centered. This does not imply solemn or calm; it simply means the performer must take the spiritual journey with total respect for the power of the water and the profundity of the rebirth. “Cloudburst” won first prize for its twenty-three-year-old composer in the 1993 American Choral Directors Association “Composers of the Future” competition.

... Read more
This new American opera by Evan Mack had its genesis in a lecture in Cincinnati, Ohio, where Mack heard the story of the murdered nun, Dorothy Stang. His research led him to the Ohio Province of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur where he was given access to Stang's letters from 1969 until the week before her death. In five years time, the opera went from page to stage and won the Boston Metro Opera Main Stage Award. This recording is of the original New York City production. Evan Mack, a noted composer and pianist, has composed five musicals as well as numerous popular songs and classical works. He received his DMA from the University of Cincinnati's College-Conservatory of Music.

... Read more
For years, the recording industry has asked fans to purchase the same music from the 1960s and '70s over and over again, via remasterings, repackagings, and, of course, reformattings. The Doors' box Perception (get it?), cleverly packaged as... a door, does hold some astonishing music, but the thing itself is a weird hybrid beast with multiple formats for every release. Each of the group's six albums has not only been re-remastered (this time by the remaining band members plus original engineer Bruce Botnick as the "40th anniversary mix"), but loaded up with a bevy of previously unreleased bonus tracks. But that's not it--for each album, there's a companion DVD, which includes a whole new 5.1 surround sound mix with more tracks, as well as the usual DVD extras, i.e., photo galleries, lyrics, and videos. That makes 12 discs, much of it essentially redundant. If you're cool with that, you're in for a treat. From the spookier, unissued version of "Indian Summer" to the entirely new tune "Push Push" and some super-rad footage of the band rehearsing L.A. Woman, it's easy to fall in love with this swirling, highly sexualized, and often brilliant band all over again. --Mike McGonigal

(CD Digipak with 56-page booklet, 32 tracks. Playing time: 72:12) The instantly identifiable 'King of Rock 'n' Roll Guitarists' with all his big hits and the other potent rockin' tracks which influenced generations of guitar players. An atmospheric productions by studio wizard and co-writer Lee Hazlewood plus the cream of 50s Phoenix session men including Al Casey (guitar/bass/piano), Larry Knechtel (piano), Steve Douglas and Jim Horn (saxophones). The booklet contains a newly-crafted appreciation by fellow guitar ace Deke Dickerson and a clutch of wonderful vintage photos.The Twang is still The Thang! Duane Eddy is enjoying a late-career resurgence with a Mojo Icon Award, an appearance at the Glastonbury Festival and a critically acclaimed new album. But Eddy has always been a household name on the strength of the eternally enduring records he made for the Jamie label between 1958 and 1961. This collection features 30 of the very best rock 'n' roll tracks adding the best-selling Because They're Young as a bonus ballad, and Pepe because it was a huge international hit. Nothing sounds quite as BIG as Rebel Rouser, Cannonball, Forty Miles Of Bad Road, Peter Gunn, Some Kinda Earthquake, Bonnie Came Back and Shazam! They're all here along with many more. These are the undisputed top-of-the-heap rock 'n' roll instrumentals in all their dazzling, reverb-laden, tremolo-fattened glory.
