…Nowhere is this overindulgence as exciting but in his rendering here of Strauss' Death and Transfiguration. Charged with energy, depth, and intellect, this is one of the finest modern-day accounts of this work ever recorded. Telarc's sound is naturally clear and deep, which makes for a riveting compact disc all the way around. If you aren't familiar with Runnicles or his work, you deserve to know both him and it. This recording is not to be missed.

Philip Glass - Songs From Liquid Days (1986)
Classical | EAC (APE, CUE & NO LOG) | 213 MB

Songs are perhaps our most basic musical expression
Songs from Liquid Days became for me truly a voyage of discovery. All in all, Songs from Liquid Days has brought together quite an astonishing assortment of people, from the progressive Kronos String Quartet to singers Linda Ronstadt, Doug Perry and Janice Pendarvis and Bernard Fowler. Among them, they cover a fair range of the contemporary music practiced in our time, from experimental to rock to opera.

Somewhat of an oddity from Paul Simon's catalog, "Songs From The Capeman" is an interesting selection of songs from the Broadway production of "The Capeman", also by Simon. These selections are, however, performed by Simon along and not the original cast. This makes this album somewhat unusual and remarkable. There are traces of Doo-Wop and Latin music here making for a terrifically enjoyable experience.

The World in Six Songs: How the Musical Brain Created Human Nature

The World in Six Songs: How the Musical Brain Created Human Nature by Daniel Levitin
English | July 4th, 2019 | ISBN: 0241987814 | 368 pages | EPUB | 1.21 MB

Dividing the sum total of human musical achievement, from Beethoven to The Beatles, Busta Rhymes to Bach, into just six fundamental forms, Levitin illuminates, through songs of friendship, joy, comfort, knowledge, religion and love, how music has been instrumental in the evolution of language, thought and culture. And how, far from being a bit of a song and dance, music is at the core of what it means to be human.

Co-produced by John Vincent with Tom Elmhirst (Adele, David Bowie, Beck), Tony Berg and Ryan Hadlock, Songs For The Canyon is a massive leap forward from a traditional artist who has already built a diehard fanbase on the strength of his classic, stripped-down, indie-folk tinged sound.

Laura Osnes - If I Tell You (The Songs of Maury Yeston) (2013)
MP3 320 kbps CBR | 52:43 min | 122 MB
Genre: Vocal Jazz | Label: P.S. Classics

Broadway's newest star, Laura Osnes – Tony-nominated for her leading role in Bonnie and Clyde and currently starring in the title role of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella – takes on the work of one of the Great White Way's most celebrated composer-lyricists. Laura Osnes: IF I TELL YOU (Songs of Maury Yeston) is the first solo album devoted to songs by the Tony-winning composer of Nine: The Musical, Grand Hotel, Titanic and Death Takes a Holiday. Yeston waited nearly thirty years before allowing a solo disc devoted to his work, but he found the perfect interpreter in Osnes, with her crystalline soprano, her delicate yet devastating way with a lyric, and her youthful effervescence and intensity.

Vittorioso sulla flotta musulmana, il moro Otello, che è al servizio della Repubblica di Venezia, rientra da trionfatore a Cipro, dove lo attende la bellissima moglie Desdemona. Egli trova però anche il suo luogotenente Cassio ed il fido, ma invidioso Jago, che aspira a prenderne il posto. Subito Jago provoca un alterco fra Cassio e un altro ufficiale, Roderigo; Otello, sdegnato, priva il suo Luogotenente del grado e del comando. Poi, continuando nelle sue trame, Jago instilla nel cuore del Moro una folle gelosia, facendo in modo che questi sorprenda Cassio a colloquio con la moglie (sollecitata dal giovane ad intervenire in di lui favore). Infine, aiutato dalla moglie Emilia, ancella di Desdemona, Jago sottrae alla dama un fazzoletto (dono di Otello) che poi abbandona in casa di Cassio. Geloso e furioso, Otello, durante un ricevimento in onore di una Ambasceria veneziana, offende Desdemona: ma richiamato in Patria, intende lasciare comunque il comando a Cassio. Mentre quest'ultimo scampa alla morte per mano di Roderigo (istigato dal perfido Jago), Otello entra come impazzito nella propria camera e soffoca Desdemona. Indi, baciando per l'ultima volta quel viso che pure adora, si uccide pugnalandosi al cuore.

With a only a few exceptions, the film follows the same plot as the opera. Jago plots and brings about Otello's downfall by convincing him that his wife Desdemona is engaged in an affair with the young lieutenant Cassio, provoking Otello to murder her in a blind rage.

Adaptation de l'opéra de Verdi par Franco Zeffirelli.
