Wintering Well

All Other Voices Gone, Only Yours Remains" is the result of a dialog between Nieves Mingueza and the musicians The Humble Bee and Offthesky initiated by IIKKI, between October 2018 and June 2019. Together, the two have produced a touching, richly nostalgic recording. Tattersall is on piano, guitar, vibes, synthesizers and tape loops. Corder contributes vibes, and was responsible for the album’s arrangements and mixing. They’re joined by Cody Yantis on saxophone, Julie Slater on viola, Rin Howell on vocals, Jiah Shin on cello and Esther Hernandez on flute. While that lineup is suggestive of a new classical recording, All Other Voices Gone, Only Yours Remains is not quite that. The acoustic instruments are blanketed by thick layers of found sounds and digital treatments.

The 1975 return with their 5th studio album, Being Funny In A Foreign Language. The album was written by Matthew Healy and George Daniel and recorded at Real World Studios (UK) and Electric Lady Studios (NYC). Formed in Manchester in 2002, The 1975 have established themselves as one of the defining bands of their generation with their distinctive aesthetic, ardent fanbase and unique sonic approach. They were named NME’s Band of the Decade and Best Group at the BRIT Awards.

Completed when Mendelssohn was only fifteen, his First Symphony is an energetic work, exhibiting the young prodigy’s genius and youthful outlook. Both versions of the third movement (the orchestrated scherzo from his Octet from the London premiere, and the original version) are presented here for comparison. One of his best-loved works, the “Italian” Symphony stems from Mendelssohn’s tour of Europe (1829-31) and is inspired by Italy’s vivid sights, sounds, and atmosphere.
