He has a real affinity for this music as a rule, thus I always give his recordings a fair audition. In the year 2000, when Bent Juul Rasmussen (CEO & Export Manager), led by a desire to fulfil his passion for love of music, established the agency Art & Music Scandinavia. The first achievement was to sign Fairport Convention to the roster and it soon became regarded as the leading agency in Denmark promoting folk and folk-rock artists. Danish music agency promoting top international artists to venues and festivals around Scandinavia.

And once again, she manages to get more serious near the end, playing the soft string tremolos as if they were made of ice crystals. In the slow third movement, she builds up the gradual crescendo slowly and masterfully. In the last movement, Gražinytė-Tyla drives the music forward with an almost manic force. But even when the opening tempo is fast, Weinberg’s symphonies almost never end on a happy or a triumphant note; sooner or later, the deep sadness comes into the picture, and this is so here—at least for a while.

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.

His assignment of particular qualities to a given mode is reminiscent of Plato and Confucius. In every historical period there have been defectors from one or more of these views, and there are, of course, differences of emphasis. While residing in Brussels these two artists began to collect works of art for what is now known as the Mesdag Museum. Residing in Columbus, Ohio, Neuhues wields the palettes of Tech-House, Minimal, with splashes of Electro and UK Garage to make you move with the freshest tracks coming out of the UK and the EU.

In acoustics, the Greeks discovered the correspondence between the pitch of a note and the length of a string. But they did not progress to a calculation of pitch on the basis of vibrations, though an attempt was made to connect sounds with underlying motions.

‘Pavamana’ by Ben and Vincent, is a walk through the jungle with colorful sounds of rattles, cosmic flutes and currents of hot air. An enveloping voice guides the listener, suggesting gently where to venture next. Gobi Desert Collective and Copal join the label with their track ‘Ambedo’, a darker release that maintains the fresh personality of the Art Vibes collective.
Indeed, “noise” itself and silence became elements in composition, and random sounds were used by composers, such as the American John Cage, and others in works having aleatory or impromptu features. Tone, moreover, is only one component in music, others being rhythm, timbre , and texture. Electronic machinery enabled some composers to create works in which the traditional role of the interpreter is abolished and to record, directly on tape or into a digital file, sounds that were formerly beyond human ability to produce, if not to imagine. Of all the artworks that speak a musical voice, I find that Australian Aboriginal art offers the clearest idea of music I have ever heard or seen in any artwork.
And Witzel’s solo is an extension of that theme, using its harmonic base to improvise on but also extending the time—and the harmony—within his improvised choruses. In other words, the solo, too, is a composition, just a spontaneously created one. While my readers know very well that I am not a big fan of this modern trend towards soft-grained jazz guitar playing, it is what Witzel plays rather than the style in which he plays it that grabbed my attention. His solos are wonderfully creative, far better than the first “soft jazz” guitarists of the 1990s were.
