Through its wind instruments, it invites one to visit other cultures and heritages. ‘Play a Part’ from Armenian producer Teom drags us quickly until we find ourselves contemplating a surreal sunset in the desert. Without a doubt, the vocals along with the electronic sequences are the perfect engine to get us there comfortably.

Then, he suddenly rallies for a fast ending, albeit one that sounds a bit more like a fit of panic than one of triumph. The solo cello sonata, composed as far back as 1955 in Berlin, is more reminiscent of Zoltán Kodály’s excellent 1915 cello sonata than of the kind of music prevalent in Germany in the ‘50s, which would have been either the influence of Schoenberg or Hindemith. Although Crumb was not yet “really” the Crumb we know from about 1964 onward, it is still a creative piece, occasionally using some light microtonal effects, and played superbly here by the then-39-year-old de Saram. The second movement, with its moving harmonies, borders on the atonal, while in the third Crumb throws in a quite jazzy syncopated rhythm, which de Saram captures perfectly. The rest of his colleagues come from a chamber group formed in 1973 with the express purpose of exploring “music, old and new, from around the world,” Ensemble Dreamtiger, and it figures that I had never heard of them before. If you don’t specialize in the old-timey music that’s been around since Victoria was the Queen of England, you don’t get much promotion.
Maestro Giacomo Sagripanti appointed Music Director at Tbilisi Opera and Ballet State Theatre
It is time to make way for pleasant emotions, reunions between friends and a shared desire to continue inhabiting our planet, making it a better and more enjoyable place. Between fruity sounds, ethereal sound atmospheres and avant-garde beats, Solstice Vibes is once again one of the most anticipated releases of the Summer. The space was engineered to neutralize sound and create an optimal environment for sound recording.
Svedlund plays it with a Romantic sweep, but Gražinytė-Tyla relaxes it still further, as if trying to coax the sadness in this music to come forward. Thus he and those musicians who thought as he did would probably appreciate this book. It also helps that tenor saxist Dann Zinn, who joins him on his three original pieces , is also an exceptional improvising artist. In addition, Zinn plays some unusual notes and fills behind the leader, both during theme statements and later in these tracks. If you listen carefully to the opening track, Feelin’ It, you will note that it is somewhat irregularly composed; the second half of the initial chorus statement falls into an irregular rhythmic pattern that one seldom heard in the early ‘60s.
The program, working in tandem with MECA&D’s rigorous visual arts offerings, prepares students to cross traditional boundaries as musicians, performers, sound artists, artists and thinkers. You will note that amidst the percussion instruments are “5 Japanese temple bells,” and it is these plus the glass harmonica that create the eerie droning effect. My readers know that I detest modern-day “ambient” music because it is usually soft, slow, tonal and drippy, but Crumb, one of the pioneers of ambient music, was NEVER tonal and drippy. Even in his slow, soft music, as here, he was harmonically and texturally adventurous to a fault. Like Harry Partch before him, he created sounds never previously heard by human ears out of instruments that were, in other contexts, quite “normal”-sounding, and Dream Sequence is clearly one of these.
Make A Melody
Bychkov gives some interesting accents on the low string theme that follows, particularly the first time around, emphasizing the sadness of the music. From the very first notes of the Schoenberg Klavierstücke, one is aware of the fact that Iman is an artist and not just a technician. His phrasing and subtle use of dynamics mold and shape this music in ways I’ve never quite heard before. There is a certain “curvelinear” feel to his phrasing that attracts the listener, despite the fact that this is already 12-tone Schoenberg. In addition, his piano is recorded perfectly, giving his sound great clarity with just enough natural reverb around the instrument to not make it sound like an echo chamber.
Serbian producer Tebra, returns to the label with ‘Suza’, a sonic masterpiece majestically switching between keyboards and strings. The producer creates a surreal party ecosystem, with one foot on the ground and the other one up in the milky way. ‘Diwali’ by Amour Propre begins the story of Solstice Vibes V. Through the voices and percussion, it keeps us delicately within its oriental soundscape.
The brightness of and patterns in Aboriginal art offer a strong representation of music as they do about the stories of their country, their people and their myths and Dreamtime stories.

At university and during work placements, a passion for Environmentally Sensitive Design and Material Culture Studies developed. She became fascinated with vernacular architecture — buildings and environments built by people lacking “formal” training, yet brilliantly employing materials and traditional processes of local know-how, culture and environment. This CD combines the first recording of Ellen Taaffe Zwilich’s 2020 Cello Concerto with older works from her vast catalog.
