Paul Desmond - The Complete 1975 Toronto Recordings (7CD) (2020) Music

Posted by Domestos at Jan. 2, 2021

Paul Desmond was an artist who stood alone on the alto saxophone. His tone was light, but full. His improvisations were complex but always lyrical and direct. If Johnny Hodges was the seducer on alto, Desmond was the cool intellect always willing to engage all of your senses.

André Jolivet (1905 – 1974) was a French composer. Known for his devotion to French culture and musical thought, Jolivet drew on his interest in acoustics and atonality, as well as both ancient and modern musical influences, particularly on instruments used in ancient times. He composed in a wide variety of forms for many different types of ensembles. Jolivet's aesthetic ideals underwent many changes throughout his career. His initial desire as an adolescent was to write music for the theater, which inspired his first compositions, including music for a ballet. Claude Debussy, Paul Dukas, and Maurice Ravel were to be his next influences after he heard a concert of their work in 1919; he composed several piano pieces while training to become a teacher before going to study with Le Flem.

Memphis Slim - Steppin' Out: Live at Ronnie Scott's (1990) Music

Posted by uff at Dec. 23, 2014

Only a handful of American blues artists have gained the financial rewards that come with international success. Memphis Slim was one of those elite performers. His brand of blues runs the gamut from R&B to folk-and, after experiencing the warm welcome given to him and his co-stars on the blues boom package tours of the early Sixties, he decided to settle in Europe. His recording career began in the late Forties with his band, the House Rockers, when he enjoyed Billboard R&B chart status with 'Blue And Lonesome' and 'Angel Child', both recorded for Miracle Records of Chicago.

Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor (Richard Bonynge, Joan Sutherland, Luciano Pavarotti) [2009] Music

Posted by Sowulo at July 26, 2015

Hardly any other singer of our time has had such an uninterrupted and brilliant career as the Australian soprano, Joan Sutherland. Already described as ‘La Stupenda’, the ‘Koloraturwunder’' or ‘The Incomparable’, she can look back on a career stretching over more than forty years which was soundly based and intelligently developed. Sutherland has been on the stage since 1947. Her European career began in London in 1952 and in 1959 the producers at DECCA became aware of the new vocal miracle and entered into an exclusive contract with Joan Sutherland. Since that time her regular recordings have captured all the important stages of her career…

Carlo Maria Giulini & Philharmonia Orchestra - Mozart: Les Noces de Figaro (2020) Music

Posted by delpotro at July 2, 2020

Tout le monde connaît Les Noces de Figaro selon Giulini ? Le studio de 1959 chez Emi peut-être, mais sûrement pas ce rare concert du 6 février 1961, joyau de poésie et de vivacité où se surpasse une distribution de rêve.
