Aline

The yamato word for mirror, 鏡kagami, can be read as “kami (divinity) surrounding ga (self)”: if you look in a mirror, what you see is your own self surrounded by divinity. Kaori Uemura has called her tale Kagami , because she believes that music reflects the inner depths of the self in the same way as a mirror. Mirrors were used in art as a reflection of what is, and as an allegory of truth and wisdom, a means of knowing yourself as you are. This recording is also a tribute to the Baroque composers who saw music not only as a mirror of divine creation, but equally as a means of expressing human emotions through musical figures which could produce specific affects.

"Clara Viva" is the new project of singer and composer Aline Calixto, in which she celebrates the immortal work of Minas Gerais Clara Nunes.

If you take a closer look at the Portuguese music scene of 2018, it is precisely artists from the former African colonies who have been enormously enriching the country's musical and poetic spectrum for some years now. Angolan Aline Frazão is one of them. Mythical images of the rain, sometimes dance-like, sometimes ballad-like memories of Angola's landscapes, a chanson that mutates into a bossa, a transatlantic cello and images of nature made with Cape Verdean strings: these are just some of the ingredients for her forth work Dentro Da Chuva, on which the singer / Songwriter draws wonderfully dazzling soundtracks on the Atlantic Ocean. Dentro Da Chuva combines myths and metaphors from the sea, strong images of nature between water and sky, with the modern lifestyle of a young Afro-Portuguese woman - implemented with frugal instruments, but with the wide horizon of poetic visions.

Aline is a 1979 compilation album by French artist Daniel Bevilacqua, who became known as Christophe. This was remastered and reissued in 2004 by the Dreyfus label.

Échappant au domaine des "frivolités musicales de salon", ces grandes oeuvres de W.A. Mozart vont jusqu'au bout des richesses sonores et polyphoniques que rendent possibles 4 mains se livrant à de subtils jeux de miroirs. Aline Zylberajch et Martin Gester, tour à tour s'affrontant et se joignant, restituent à merveille l'inspiration symphonique qui prévaut dans ces grandes pages.

Porcupine Tree, Tool, Dream Theater, Leprous oder Haken: So nennen sich die Inspirationszutaten, mit welchem das Quintett "Aline Sleeps" sich füttert. Die Prog-Rock-Gruppe besteht aus vier musikinfizierten Instronauten aus dem Raum Luzern, welche ihr Zusammenkommen dem Zufall zu verdanken haben. Die Songs zeichnen sich durch komplexe, abwechslungsreiche sowie stimmungsgewaltige Kompositionen aus, welche die Geschichten aus unseren und vergangenen Leben erzählen. Eingängige Melodien, melancholische Klänge und emotionsgeladene Töne begleiten einen Sound, getaucht in Wut, Chaos und der unsterblichen Hoffnung.
