I've had this recording of Originale for quite some time, but I ordered this special edition LP last week and hope to see it arrive soon. A special treat!
Well, I've been using the Emusic boosters to add to some of the folks that I've enjoyed as I'm still working through the library, trying to get the right info and album art. I thought I'd be a lot faster at getting them finished but all of a sudden a whole bunch of boosters and Bandcampers start flooding back in. At any rate, I've really enjoyed what I'd heard from Yves De Mey and felt the need to do some more exploring.
A Quiet Awakening and Behind Clouds. I strongly suspect @Germanprof is the guilty party. Chill music behind which to discuss another round of window replacements and another £3K not spent on music
First listen for this new release...very quiet and reflective, lots of beautiful mando solos. Needs Sara Watkins on vocals. Recommended if you like that neo-progressive folk thing.
Yann Lecollaire - I came across these while I was searching for In C tracks a while back and although it wasn't That In C, it did sound like something I would be interested in hearing. Here goes, 2012 - Introït 2013 - Enfilade 2013 - Le Fantôme de l'Opéra 2013 - Mnésie Thödol Records - Bandcamp For the 100th anniversary of the Gaston LEROUX’s novel The Phantom of the Opera, Yann LECOLLAIRE wrote a brand new soundtrack for the Rupert JULIAN’s movie of 1925 with Lon CHANEY & Mary PHILBIN. A music composed under Messiaen’s modes, full of lyricism, this is modern chamber music filled with beautiful details and dramatic passions, jumping in from classic style to improv, scene to scene. The disc is replete with tension and magic. Accompanied by an original and unusual group, Yann LECOLLAIRE replies with an careful ear to the sounds and harmonies to the pain and loneliness of Erik the Phantom. His compositions for this film are among his most accomplished and sophisticated work, while remaining very accessible, heartbreaking in its form, and provocative in its assertions. ps - That was a most enjoyable listen!
We spent yesterday in London, extremely hot and humid, totally avoiding the tube. The main purpose of the visit was to go to a Monet and Architecture exhibition, totally fascinating, but we also went Handel and Hendrix in London, which was amazing. Handel spent the last 36 years of his life living in a house in Brook Street, London. That in itself was worth the visit, but by one of those strange coincidences, Jimi Hendrix spent two plus years living in a flat next door. One of the rooms has been reconstructed to how it was when he lived these, with other rooms showing displays about his life and especially his time in London. Nowadays the two properties have been joined together. If anyone is interested in finding out more check out here.
