One of the few great things about lockdown for me was the opportunity to discover and share some wonderful solo violin music, both old and new, via YouTube. In a time when I couldn't work with other musicians or play to live audiences, I felt I could still connect and relate to you, my virtual audience, through music.

Tegan and Sara's 10th studio album, Crybaby, was recorded in Fall 2021 in Seattle and Los Angeles. Produced with John Congleton (Angel Olsen, Sharon Van Etten), Crybaby is a return to form, while also being something entirely new.

Tegan and Sara will revisit the indie-pop duo’s 2004 breakout album, So Jealous, on a new version of the record titled STILL JEALOUS. It features the original’s 14 tracks, all of which have been re-recorded acoustically, with the twin sisters singing each other’s songs.

For her tenth Deutsche Grammophon release, pianist Alice Sara Ott returns to the music of Frédéric Chopin. She approaches Chopin’s 24 Préludes op. 28 from a fresh perspective, finding a personal thread that parallels the music’s dramatic arc and wide-ranging moods. The pianist frames the Préludes within a contemporary context by interspersing them with seven works by 20th- and 21st-century composers.
