Empress of a Thousand Sky

"Land of a Thousand Trances" is the music of total loneliness. You listen to the album and realize how the scales of insubstantial hopes fall from your eyes. You are tete-a-tete with yourself and only gleams of the past are dancing on the walls. And while being in such a retirement you start sensing yourself which you are in reality. A double album "Land of a Thousand Trances" is not only a re-mastered special edition of the original album issued in 1994 but it represents a collection of unpublished compositions which can be found on the second disc. More than this, the concert versions of two most popular compositions "Heart of the Dunes" and "The Dreaming Room" are added to the first disc.

This is the third album from Honduran-American Lorely Rodriguez, better known as Empress Of. I’m Your Empress Of is a bold statement of her individuality, nodding to her Honduran heritage but also her clear love of electronic music and Chicago house. This is an album that bristles with life.

Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s revelatory interpretation of Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 8, recorded live at Walt Disney Concert Hall (30/31 May & 2 June 2019) will be released in June 2021. Their new album documents a landmark performance that brought the LA Philharmonic’s centennial season to a triumphant conclusion in 2019. Mahler’s extraordinary ‘Symphony of a Thousand’ spans a universe of emotions, channeled through everything from passages of intimate reflection to overwhelming outbursts of choral and orchestral sound.

For its final concert of the 2021–22 season and Osmo Vänskä’s last as artistic director, the Minnesota Orchestra chose to present Mahler’s mammoth Eighth Symphony, which calls for one of the largest complement of performers in the history of music, a symbol of the communitarian spirit of collective cultural, social and religious-philosophical endeavour in what has been referred to as a ‘Mass for the Masses’.
