Between 2003 and 2015, Ronald Brautigam recorded all of Beethoven’s music for solo piano – a huge undertaking resulting in a grand total of 15 highly acclaimed albums. Choosing to perform the works on the fortepiano, Brautigam began with a sonata cycle which caused one reviewer to talk of a challenge to ‘the very notion of playing this music on modern instruments, a stylistic paradigm shift.’ In 2010, after nine albums of sonatas, he went on to record the composer’s variations, bagatelles and other piano pieces – a staggering array of works ranging from a Bagatelle lasting 11 seconds to the monumental Diabelli Variations, and from a charming Rondo in C major composed by a 13-year old Beethoven, to what is often referred to as the composer's ‘Last Musical Thought’, an Andante maestoso dated 1826.

Genre: Hard Rock, Blues Rock | RAR 3% Rec. | Label: Provogue Records (PRD 7342 2)

Released by Provogue Records, this album features West alongside a hand-picked line-up of the finest guitar players alive today including Slash, blues-rock guitar superstar Joe Bonamassa, Black Label Society front man and ex-Ozzy guitarist Zakk Wylde, ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons and Toto’s Steve Lukather.
Leslie West isn’t a particularly innovative guitarist, and his style and approach have barely moved an eyelash since he first broke into the public consciousness with Mountain back in the early '70s, but he gets a tone heavier than plutonium on his Les Paul, and when he sings, it’s a gear-shredding roar that would make John Kay proud…

t.A.T.u. is a Russian pop duo (Elena Katina and Yulia Volkova) formed in 1999 when they were both teenagers. Their first album 200 km/h in the Wrong Lane (2002) was the first album from Russian artists to achieve international gold classification. It spawned the huge hit "All the Things She Said" and that famous schoolgirls video. The video only added to the enduring speculation about their sexuality which they did little to dispel at the time. It was not until much later (in the documentary Anatomy of t.A.T.u.) that it became clear that their controversial under-age lesbian image was nothing more than a somewhat sinister stage-managed publicity campaign.

FLAC (tracks) 24-bit/96 kHz | Front Cover | Time - 56:16 minutes | 1,01 GB
Classical | Label: naïve, Official Digital Download

Paul Huang and Helen Huang have been exploring the repertoire for violin and piano for now a decade.​ As a way of celebrating their fruitful and enriching collaboration, they have devised this album as an​ ingenious game of mirroring. The title of this second album for naïve is not accidental, as the two​ musicians offer highly diverse perspectives. This new recording focuses first on two sonatas composed​ by Francis Poulenc (1942-1943) and Sergei Prokofiev (1938-1946) during the second world war of the​ 20th century, respectively at the opening and closing of this album. Between these two pieces, Spiegel im​ Spiegel by Arvo Pärt (1978), a page with ethereal lines, a moment of introspection and calm that becomes a space for contemplation and reflection necessary in this otherwise dense and angular​ programme.

David Crosby and Graham Nash, two-thirds of Crosby, Stills and Nash, began writing and playing together 36 years ago and their brand of mellow harmony became one of rock's trademarks. Together and apart they have had circuitous careers since, taking in drug rehab and political activism (in the case of Crosby) and photography (Nash is a digital imaging pioneer). Their last album together was the mid-Seventies Wind on the Water. Now, more than thirty years later, comes another, simply titled Crosby-Nash…

The innovative changes that characterize musical instrument making at the beginning of the 19th century reflect the increasing technical demands of composers as well as the needs of musicians striving for perfection and the audiences’ insatiable thirst for novelty. The harpsichord, which had definitely fallen out of favor because of its limited musical expression, was now superseded by the pianoforte. The range of the new instrument was expanded and in order to enhance its expressive possibilities, pedals were added to modify its tone color and timbre.
