"A whole disc of new music, plus Eno’s seminal original album re-mastered. To coincide with the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 spaceflight and moon landing in July 1969, comes this extended edition of Brian Eno, Roger Eno and Daniel Lanois’s seminal ‘Apollo’ album. Originally scored to accompany director Al Reinert’s landmark feature-length documentary ‘For All Mankind’, the original ‘Apollo’ album has been remastered by Abbey Road’s Miles Showell. It also comes with 11 new instrumental compositions which reimagine the soundtrack to the film, marking the first time the three musicians have collaborated since the original sessions in 1983. ‘Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks – Extended Version’ is presented here as a 2CD set."

Genre: Classical / Label: harmonia mundi

Between Die Entführung aus dem Serail and the advent of the famous Da Ponte trilogy, Mozart threw himself frantically into the search for the right libretto, capable of taking the spectator to lands still unexplored where the drama and the psychology of the characters would be sublimated by the music. Hence, in the years between 1782 and 1786, Mozart set up a veritable laboratory for dramatic music: a musical corpus of concert arias, sketches and stylistic exercises like the canon - brilliantly organised here as an imaginary dramma giocoso in three scenes, each heralding in its own way one of the summits to come: Figaro, Don Giovanni, Così…

Pianist and composer Alain Lefèvre , acclaimed by the international press for his “phenomenal technique” (The Spectator ), his “sparkling playing” and “fascinating interpretations” ( Kölner Stadt Anzeiger ), his “absolute mastery” ( Hamburger Abendblatt ) and for his deep sensitivity, delivers, on the ALEKTA label, the entirety of Chopin 's (1810-1849) 24 preludes ( Opus 28 ), as well as a work by Padre Antonio Soler (1729-1783), the Sonata in D minor No. 24 – Andantino cantabile. Micro-Universes that unfold under the pianist’s fingertips and that become one with the intensity of his playing. Once again, virtuosity is at the service of a flawless musical interpretation.

This album was born in these last years of study related to the Armenian musical tradition and from the curiosity and the need to bring to knowledge, especially to the vast Western public, the extraordinary figure of Vardapet Komitas.
Through his life, his artistic career and his immense research work not only in the Caucasian territory and especially in the re-proposed musical repertoire, Komitas, stands as a striking example of how ethnomusicological work can lead to the protection of an immense intangible and identity heritage , placing itself in this case on the terrible Genocide of the Armenian people caused by the Ottoman Empire at the beginning of the century.

"Teatro alla Scala. The Temple of Wonders is a filmic event dedicated to one of the most exclusive temples of music and world spectacle, a place where art is creating itself, representing itself, living itself. Inaugurated in 1778, the Teatro alla Scala of Milan is the place where the tradition of the great Italian opera is born. The emotions absorbed by the velvet curtains, by the wood of the stage, by the armchairs in front of the orchestra are still alive today and surface every night at the very moment when the light is dimmed, the audience stops chatting and the show begins. Accompanied by the narrative voice of Sandro Lombardi, the video camera travels down the corridors and make us breath 237 years of history: a majestic succession of discoveries and revelations will be a delight for the spectator. It's the story of the only theatre of the world that has captured and tied inextricably to itself the biggest names of the musical sector. Giuseppe Verdi, Giacomo Puccini, Arturo …

Il Farnace is the most re-written and re-proposed of Vivaldi’s operas, it’s like a beloved child who worries his father, and to whom the parent always wants to give the best. Versions of Farnace, two in 1727 and one each in 1730, 1731 and 1732, had been conceived and adapted to the different circumstances for Venice, Prague, Pavia and Mantua, always with a cast to Vivaldi’s satisfaction and with the composer in control of the production.
