The succinct yet wide-reaching ‘Love Amongst Ruin’, with it’s twists of New Order/Depeche Mode electronica, Can/Kasabian motorika, Cure atmospherics and hardcore Metallica riffs, had firmly positioned him as an alt-rock contender in his own right. The title track of the new album ‘Lose Your Way’ is a dark, confident slab of rock noir at its finest, whereas ‘Menace Ballad’ brings a swarm of psychedelic intrigue to a track that will win over fans of experimental post-rock. It’s an album that embraces finely wrought atmospheres and artfully coiled emotion on the lush Cure melancholy and loss of ‘Oh God’, ‘Watch Myself’ and ‘Paper Tigers’, as well as the flamethrower fuzzrock of ‘Swan Killer’. www.membran.net JAZZ JOEY ALEXANDER MY FAVORITE THINGS • 11-year old piano wizard, highly acclaimed by Herbie Hancock, Wynton Marsalis and many more •Incredible Press- and TV-results in the US, incl. “The Tonight Show”, New York Times, Downbeat and a TED Talk performance •Joey Alexander will also tour extensively in Europe (July + November) with specific dates to be announced shortly Artist: JOEY ALEXANDER Title: MY FAVORITE THINGS Release: 15.

Amazing!” – Herbie Hancock “If the word “genius” still means anything, it applies to this prodigy” - Downbeat “Technically fluent and harmonically astute” - The New York Times “Magnificent not only for the child’s virtuosity - plenty of prodigies have outsized chops - but for the maturity and perception he brought” - Jazz Times Jazz piano wunderkind Joey Alexander will release his highly anticipated debut album ‘My Favorite Things’, produced by Grammy-winning producer Jason Olaine, on the Harlem based label Motéma Music. The album finds Alexander playing everything from Coltrane to Rodgers and Hammerstein with a deft touch, adventurous spirit and improvisatory verve. Accompanying Joey on the album are bassist Larry Grenadier (Stan Getz, Brad Mehldau, Pat Metheny) and 2-time Grammy-winning drummer Ulysses Owens Jr. (Kurt Elling, Wynton Marsalis, Christian McBride) as well as three talented young players from the New York scene: Russell Hall (bass), Sammy Miller (drums) and trumpeter Alphonso Horne (LCJO, Marcus Roberts). Driven by Alexander’s imagination, sophisticated arrangements and dazzling playing, ‘My Favorite Things’ is soulful and joyful. It is also statement of intent, a compelling introduction to a budding young leader, performer and composer, who plays with power and elation. Born on the island of Bali in the city of Denpassar in 2003, Alexander first encountered a piano at the age of six, and was immediately able to pick out the melody of Thelonious Monk’s “Well, You Needn’t” and other jazz standards from his father’s record collection by ear. Despite no formal jazz education, Joey rose quickly in the Indonesian jazz scene and beyond. In 2013 he was featured at jazz festivals in both Jakarta and Copenhagen, and won the international improvisation contest in Odessa, Ukraine – besting over 200 adult contestants. He now counts Wynton Marsalis, Herbie Hancock, Billy Crystal and Bill Clinton among his many fans. www.membran.net JAZZ TIMO LASSY „One can speak of a metaphysical approximation, which lets the listener feel the holiness of Jazz.” M.A. Numminen Love Bullet • A series of short-films, shot by Finnish filmmakers VHS with an A-class acting cast from Finland, will act as teasers and “videos” to promote the album before and around the release TIMO LASSY Love Bullet TIMO LASSY Love Bullet • Promotion campaigns in all relevant territories, with major reviews/stories/plays already confirmed (Gilles Peterson BBC, article in Jazz thing, Jazz News etc.) • European tour dates to be announced soon; appearances at all major Finnish Jazz festivals in the summer will be used for interviews for international media Up north in Finland, in the land of the hottest Saunas, longest winters and saddest Tangos, you can also find one of the coolest and most distinguished saxophonist/composers on the Jazz-scene today. 39-yearold Timo Lassy, acclaimed as a “rising star” in US-jazz-bible Downbeat, now hits us with “Love Bullet”, his fifth album and his most accomplished studio-work to date. “The entire album is definitely more personal than all my previous work”, he says of this sophisticated collection of ten instrumental originals. “It tells a story of the past few colorful years in my life. No need to rush this time around, I hope.” Having worked with an international all-star cast ranging from the Italian style-master Nicola Conte to US-Jazz-vocalist José James and recently extending his talents into the art of film-music by composing for the soundtrack of the movie “Moomins on the Riviera” a.o., Lassy created this mysteriously soulful and somewhat “cineastic” music with his working band in mind, an ensemble that was dubbed “one of Europe’s sharpest bands” by The Sunday Times in the UK. Their sonic base is in the 1950′s/60′s hard bop, Soul Jazz and Latin Jazz tradition, but the masterful execution and the progressive vision of all of the group’s players places the music firmly in the 21st century. Like the films of fellow Finn Aki Kaurismäki, it exudes an energy and a feeling at once markedly timeless, traditional and tirelessly forward-looking. „Quality swinging jazz with a difference!“, as Gilles Peterson calls it. As a character, Timo Lassy embodies the rare kind of charisma of a contemporary jazz star, whose humility always marks him as a team player. “I could not have given these songs to anyone else to play except my longtime associates Teppo, Antti, ‚Gorgeous‘ (aka Georgios) and “Mamba””, Timo Lassy says. “We have recorded five albums and played many a gig together. It‘s all about friendship, enormous trust and respect. It‘s not always so simple to say: but I love you all.” Which is just about as cool as it gets … TRACK LISTING: 1. Love Intro 2.

One look at Socalled, the cultural character from Canada will make you believe he is a true original. But take a listen to his new album “Peoplewatching” and you will feel that there is so much more than meets the eye to this pianist, producer, composer, arranger, rapper, singer, journalist, photographer, filmmaker, magician, cartoonist and puppet maker. The subject of “The Socalled Movie”, a feature documentary produced by the National Film Board of Canada, the 38-year-old has been making records and touring the world for over a decade by now. Having worked with Chilly Gonzales, Mocky, David Krakauer, Fred Wesley, The Mighty Sparrow, Matisyahu and Killah Priest, he whose passport reads Joshua David Charles Dolgin but is better known as Socalled, is an incredibly intelligent and funny free agent in his own cosmos, a space and time where Yiddish folk-melodies, Jazz attitude and Hip Hop collide to create a universally loved modern amalgam. After several solo albums including, The Socalled Seder and 2007’s “Ghettoblaster”, which featured the breakout hits, “The Good Old Days” and “You Are Never Alone”, it was time for “Sleepover” in 2013. “Sleepover” featuring over 30 incredible guests, is the further 34023 3 articulation of a mission to cross boundaries, to mix old and new sounds, acoustic and electric instruments, digital and analog recording techniques, while exploring different cultures and styles, all in the service of creating something catchy, smart, hilarious, emotional and timeless. Now get ready for “Peoplewatching”, our favorite Super-Nerd’s newest release to hit stores in May 2015. As usual (or rather not), the album works on many levels: songs like “Extra Ordinary”, “Bootycaller”, the Edwin-Starryinstrumental “Curried Soul 2.0” or the title track have irresistible hooks, great grooves and fantastic melodies, but the true fun lies in the lyrics. Socalled raps “I’m a door-to-door Wikipedia salesman” or ironically becomes the voice of the oppressors in the biblical opening track: “David and Golitah, Jonah and the whale, it’s not enough that I succeed, everyone else must fail”. And then come the award winning videos (“Ouncies, not Grammys”), and Socalled’s irresistible live-shows … you just have to see it to believe it and hear it to feel it, of course. www.membran.net GOTHIC / ROCK As The Camp Burns •Europe Live Tour 02.05 HILDEN-GOTHAM SOUNDS FESTIVAL, Area 51 23.05 LEIPZIG-WGT, Täubchental 13.06 GELSENKIRCHEN- BLACKFIELD FESTIVAL, Amphitheater Gelsenkirchen 03.10 MÜNSTER-MINICAVE FESTIVAL 17.10 WROCLAW POLAND-RETURN TO BATCAVE FESTIVAL, Utopia CRK 23.10 OLDENBURG-ALHAMBRA 24.10 MADRID SPAIN-SGM FESTIVAL •The fourth album „As The Camp Burns“ is already eagerly awaited by the large fan base “As The Camp Burns”, the fourth and new album by FRANK THE BAPTIST and follow-up to 2007`s “The New Colossus” will be released 24th of April through Recordjet / Membran.

BEAUTIFUL CLASSICAL MUSIC FOR THE MOST SPECIAL OF DAYS • • musical accompaniments of the finest quality for church, registry office and receptions • high-class performers: José Carreras, the famous boys’ choir from Tölz, Claudio Arrau, Vienna Philharmonic and many others favourite pieces suitable for weddings, by Bach, H andel, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Chopin and many others Without music a wedding is quite incomplete! From the arrival at the registry office or in the church, the background music for the festivities that follow, and to the married couple’s first waltz or the cutting of the wedding cake it is the music that lends the proper atmosphere of solemnity, joy and emotionality to this event, where tradition and formality are high priorities. The 26 pieces in this compilation cover all aspects and help to establish the mood for the great day in a relaxed way; and through the choice of music perhaps offer some suggestions. The declaration of love, the wedding ceremony and the exchange of rings are deeply moving moments that for centuries have been expressed in music giving the whole proceedings a special brilliance. As well as works that are universally known and loved other pieces can be heard that are equally tailored to that most special of days though somewhat aside from the mainstream. The artists performing on these recordings are top-class musicians such as José Carreras, Kathleen Ferrier, Alfred Deller, the Tölzer Knabenchor (the boys choir from Bad Tölz), Claudio Arrau, the Vienna Philharmonic, the Royal Philharmonic orchestra and many others.

The words on her first rap album – produced entirely by Chris Keys – balance a beautiful delivery with brutal honesty. These are the honest confessions of a mother who refuses to turn a blind eye to immediate and ancestral misdeeds. Her rhymes are conscious, but more importantly, they speak to our deeper conscience. The prophetic soul artist offers a singular voice, yet belongs to a storied lineage. Listening to this record, you can hear the echoes of past oracles: Billie Holiday, Alice Coltrane, Erkyah Badu and Lauryn Hill. But the wisdom and narrative reflect Muldrow’s most personal revelations. ALSO AVAILABLE ON VINYL! Muldrow uses music as a vessel to inspire hope and propel people towards a better future. Beyond identifying worldly inequities, this record details one woman’s quest to improve things for herself, her children, and everyone else. It’s about finding universal truths, while staying true to one’s essence – transcending the hate and slowly starting to heal.

The follow up to the band’s 2013 EP Happiness Hungover, was recorded at Red Rockets Glare studio in Santa Monica with producer Raymond Richards (Local Natives) and mastered by Mark Chalecki (Local Natives/Avi Buffalo/Islands). There is a natural energy that flows from Northern American, capturing the awe-inspiring beauty of the Los Angeles landscape through which all these lives intertwine. Nate Paul (guitar/vocals) and Shane Alch (keys) met in high school, immediately finding a kinship in their common love of music. The two moved to Los Angeles, joining forces with Augusto Vega (bass) and Bruno Calenda (drums), setting up a studio in Chinatown, writing and rehearsing nearly daily ever since. Whilst most artists have their own roles to play within their band, Northern American is a fully collaborative project with all band members contributing lyrics, melody, and rhythm to the process. The four began performing regularly and built a loyal local following in the City of Angels, with tastemaker blog, Buzzbands.LA stating, “There’s a new rock quartet in town whose sophisticated pop may include your breezy summer melody.” Happiness Hungover caught the ears of Heist Or Hit Records in the UK, who released the single “Wander” in 2014, which garnered airplay on BBC6 Music and Amazing Radio, and led CLASH magazine to call the band, “California hit-makers in waiting. Sun kissed songcraft designed to soundtrack a late night drive down the Sunset Strip.” SELLING POINTS: -Press: US Brendan Bourke (Canvas Media PR), UK Jay Taylor (Prescription PR). ‘Elysian’ premiere on Les InRocks (Europe) and Free Bike Valet (US) Modern Phenomena’ premiere on The Line Of Best Fit Press Pack: http://goo.gl/9J2q88 -Radio: US James Holland (Airplay Junkie), UK Heist or Hit in-house.

Ben Folds teamed up with Alicia to produce REVISIONARY HISTORY, an album of songs that deal in themes of heartbreak, loyalty, and the amazing power that comes with finding one’s own voice and using it. The album was years in the making, with some of nine Alicia Witt originals dating back to the mid-’00s. With plenty of time spent selecting and honing each song in concert, Alicia headed to Folds’ Nashville studio where she recorded the album in two, week-long chunks in the spring and late fall of 2013.

Multi-instrumentalist Joe Pisapia also lends acoustic guitar, pedal steel, backing vocals, and additional percussion. “This record is probably the most personal thing that I’ve put out,” says Witt, who released a self-titled EP in 2009 and the full-length Live at Rockwood in 2012. Both releases were made between parts in films and on TV (including a recurring role on this season of Showtime’s House of Lies) in an acting career that began with her debut in the David Lynch sci-fi classic Dune in 1984 when Alicia was seven. For all the autobiographical touches on REVISIONARY HISTORY, the collection is one of deeply relatable songs. The reflective piano ballad “Friend” opens the album with Alicia sifting through feelings of attraction for someone she knows should be just a pal and not a lover. The aching vocal showcase “Consolation Prize” pairs torchy piano with taut electric guitar accents as Alicia muses over the ways in which we edit our pasts to fit the present.

It’s music that yields an intangible feeling; the sacral sound of an organ whine, brass horns, or a cymbal crash. It’s a mediation on our capacity to love and the bonds binding us together. Oddisee’s production simmers it it’s own orchestra lgumbo. You sense he’s really a jazzman in different form, inhabiting the spirit of Roy Ayers and other past ALSO AVAILABLE ON VINYL!

Amerika, LATAM, JP 060243 327468 Gold Dust is a bold move for The Dirty Youth, long time darlings of the alternative press and an underground phenomenon in the UK. ‘Gold Dust’ sees the Cardiff’s five piece pushing the limits of the rock genre and setting their sights on mainstream stages. Gold Dust’s influences are bold and encompasses huge guitars, slick production and in singer Danni Monroe, a voice that nods towards Taylor Momsen, Lizzi Hale and Hayley Williams. As a lead track from Gold Dust, ‘The One’ unashamedly oozes commercial potential. Now is their time to follow in the footsteps of Enter Shikari, Fall Out Boy, Mallory Knox, and Bring Me The Horizon, to step out of the darkness and in to the spotlight. Since forming in 2008, The Dirty Youth have gained over 5.5 million Youtube views, graced stages at Download Festival 3 times, most recently taking to the second stage with ease to a crowd of over 10,00, supported Bruce Springsteen at Hyde Park, and were invited to support KORN on their European tour after KORN guitarist Munky heard The Dirty Youth cover of the Skrillex remix “Narcissistic Cannibal”. The Dirty Youth feature the songwriting talents of multi instrumentalist Matt Bond. Who has played keyboard and piano for many artists, including Bullet For My Valentine. This March The Dirty Youth support Fozzy, fronted by best selling author and WWE superstar Chris Jericho, who personally invited the band on to the tour after hearing them, throughout the UK and Europe.

Amerika, LATAM 2 From promising beginnings - playing festivals such as Reading & Leeds, touring and sharing the stage with such bands as Enter Shikari, Mallory Knox, Deaf Havana and Neck Deep, their last release, 7 track EP, ‘Hard Truths’, received rave reviews and was championed by many radio/TV stations, magazines and press. How was it then that Attention Thieves, tipped by many as the next UK rock band to breakthrough, disappeared quietly into the background? The truth is a week before the release of, ‘Hard Truths’, the band’s label went bust on them and they were promptly dropped by their management, due to the massive campaign debt the label had left them with. Finally and perhaps most importantly, the band had also been dealing with their own demons. The four piece found the chain of events difficult to deal with, working so hard for so many years to get within spitting distance of their dreams, only for them to spiral away and out of control. To be capable of touring whilst shouldering a slipped disk, singer/guitarist, Alex Green, had become further reliant on self-medication to deal with the pain which resulted in addiction. It all came to a boiling point when he had a heart attack, aged 27, during the recording of their debut album, ‘Year of the Jackal’. A complete lifestyle alteration was needed, and fast… for some member’s it would prove lifesaving. The new look Attention Thieves completed the album that almost never saw the light of day and it is by a country mile, their strongest material to date. ‘Year of the Jackal’ is a genuine triumph, both musically and subjectmatter wise, littered with passion and irresistible hookladen choruses.

May 2015 Vertriebsgebiet: ww Format: 1 CD ex. N. Amerika, LATAM 1 It’s only been a few months since Strange Names landed in New York City, but the time for this daring pop trio has most definitely come. This triumvirate of twenty-somethings—Fletcher Aleckson, Francis Ximenez and Liam Benzvi—is releasing ‘Use Your Time Wisely,’ a firecracker debut LP jammed with energetic, angular, romantic songs that sound at once ageless and completely contemporary. The band came together while Ximenez and Benzvi were students at the University Of Minnesota; they were each part of other groups but ditched them to play together. The pair cycled through a series of bassists and drummers, until after their fifth show Aleckson approached them and said, „Francis, you know what the problem is here. Give me a call when you want to upgrade.“ With that, the group cemented itself as a three-piece and one of the Twin Cities’ most talked-about acts until, with an eye toward bigger things—and graduation over and done with—the band picked up and moved to New York. While Strange Names’ rambunctious sound and sly take on modern life is completely of the moment, the band, which came together amidst the close-knit Minneapolis music scene, can’t help but see their first record as something of a second chance. What they ended up with was a collection of TK driving songs that are deceptively simple, raucously compelling and defiantly youthful. The guys strive to echo the inclusive vibe of the new wave bands they love, groups like the B-52s, Human League and the Talking Heads that didn’t leave anyone out of their party. “We’re always fighting the avant-garde within us,” Ximenez says with a smile. “We’re trying to find a middle ground where the music sounds like us but is still accessible.” SELLING POINTS: - Press: US Kip Kouri & Kevin Davis (Tell All Your Friends), UK Billy Williams Burrell & Sandra Croft (9PR) - Ricochet premiere on Entertainment Weekly „seamlessly combines the nervy melodicism of New Wave with the taut rhythms (and slap-happy bass tones) of ’80s funk-pop and manages to make a retro-heavy formula sound bracingly new.

May 2015 Vertriebsgebiet: ww 053796 002525 National Socialism had devised its own notion of the value of German art and culture. This was ruthlessly put into practice when the Nazis took over power in 1933. The more than 175 recorded musical items on these 10 CDs relate to the shocking consequences due to that “cleansing”. The burning of the Reichstag (7th April) provided the pretext for the prosecution of all who held other political opinions, for the burning of books (10th May) whose authors were on the index of disfavoured and banned writers, for the law that amended entry to the civil service (7th April) that excluded all non-Aryans and led to wholesale dismissals of Jews, especially in orchestras, the administration, among singers, conductors and instrumentalists. By means of the exhibitions “Degenerate Art” (Munich 1937) and “Degenerate Music” (Düsseldorf 1938) art and artists who were now to have no place in Nazi Germany were pilloried. The people concerned either saved themselves by fleeing abroad or were arrested, deported to concentration camps and executed. With the “annexation” of Austria the process repeated itself there, and in every other country invaded by German troops. The compilation on these 10 CDs provides examples from all types of music that were forbidden, and the composers, script-writers and performers who were prosecuted. They deserve not to be forgotten.

May 2015 Territory: ww Format: 2 CD-Jewelcase 053796 002327 “Listening to an artist like Yehudi makes even an atheist believe in God.” (George Bernhard Shaw) Yehudi Menuhin is one of the great performers of the 20th century, and his name is synonymous with the art of violin playing. Even as a child he astounded the musical world with an intellectual maturity and stylistic sureness previously unknown. From the time of his New York début in 1926 at which the star violinists Jascha Heifetz, Mischa Elman and Max Rosen were present, and the legendary appearance in the Carnegie Hall the following year, he was regarded as music’s “golden boy” – a creature sent by the gods. He was then just eleven years old but could now include such personalities as Albert Schweitzer, Fritz Busch and Arturo Toscanini among his admirers. The public worshipped him, and music critics singled him out as their darling. Menuhin was presented with the famous Prince Khevenhüller Stradivari for his twelfth birthday by the banker Henry Goldman and one after the other conquered the great concert halls of music centres on both sides of the Atlantic, becoming a legend even as a young man. The recordings on these two CDs are unambiguous proof of these statements, and may well rekindle the keen argument to decide which recordings are the best, the early ones or those from the 1950s and 60s. They are recordings of concertos by three composers to whose works Menuhin formed a special relationship, namely Bach, Beethoven and Bartók. This compilation, known as the “Three Bs concert” in reference to the legendary concert in the Berlin Phiharmonie, underlines the 1953 concert critique in “The New York Times” which maintained, “ Whatever personal problems he may have had with his artistry, he has overcome them”.

Mai 2015 Territory: ww 053796 002495 Plain and simple “Ray” was the title of a film biography in which Jamie Foxx played the musician Ray Charles. Just as in the case of Elvis Presley the forename suffices and you know what we are talking about: about first-class songs from an excellent musician presented in this box on, believe it or not, 17 records made between 1957 and 1962. Success did not come easily to Ray Charles Robinson, his brother was drowned, his mother died early and he himself became blind in his boyhood years. Later in life he had problems with drugs. But being taught piano and his enormous talent helped him along the road to an international career. In 1963 he was considered the most popular artist in the USA. It is immaterial whether his music is stamped as Blues, Jazz or Soul. His famous and energy-packed songs such as “What’d I Say” are engrained in the listener’s ear, “I got a woman” by Ray Charles was covered by Elvis for his first record. Just how versatile Ray was as a singer and pianist is shown by his “Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music”: the record was regarded at its issue as a break in style. A black musician interpreted in his way the music of the whites! The LP was nevertheless a huge success and the breakthrough for both ethnic groups achieved. Why Ray Charles was respectfully called “The genius” will be obvious from listening to these CDs. Let the good times roll!

Mai 2015 Territory: ww 053796 002389 Did anyone ever claim that crooning and sentimentality were no fun? Of course they can be fun. The proof is in these songs that tug at your heartstrings, and are sung by many international stars. The 10 CDs form a kind of counter-type to our erotically-charged box “Sex, Drugs and Alcohol”. This new issue is totally family friendly, and full of romance, longing, lovesickness and the drama that goes with it. Amazingly the otherwise so wild Rock’n’Roll era gave us also many unforgettable love songs, which the young Elvis could so captivatingly and longingly sing even on his first LPs. He is represented in this box along with numerous other Rock’n’Roll singers, and practically all the famous names took up the issues of heartbreak and lovesickness in the course of their careers: Paul Anka, Nat King Cole and Dean Martin, Connie Francis, Peggy Lee and Marilyn Monroe – the list is endless. When all is said and done love is the most beautiful and strongest feeling known to humanity and these CDs provide eminently suitable music for it, whether it be as it then was while petting in a drive-in cinema or today with a mobile music player on the balcony or on the beach. So: on with the CDs, immerse yourselves in memories and sing along! As Elvis urged in his hit of 55 years ago “It’s now or never”.

March 2014 Label Code: 12281 Format: 10 CD-Wallet Territory: ww The versatility of Fritz Wunderlich, a singer extraordinary in every way, was never more clearly discernible than on this collection of 10 CDs. Many of the recordings, some of them never before issued, go back to his early years when the young tenor financed his studies by appearing at villagehall dances and also at that time singing baroque arias, masses and cantatas, experiences that later produced that wonderful ability to render every kind of vocal music in its right and proper style. So you will find on these CDs, as well as operetta melodies from, for example Die Dubarry, Die lockende Flamme and the Zigeunerbaron film version with Wunderlich’s sung couplet Schweinespeck als idealer Lebenszweck (An ideal life I’ve made, a swineherd I’m by trade), numerous radio recordings with arias and scenes from opera as well as rarities such as Triptychon by Hermann Reutter, Frank Martin’s In terra pax and ancient songs from the collection of Arnt von Aich. Especially interesting will be Die Schweigsamer Frau (“The silent woman”) in excerpts from the Munich opera, the TV version and the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires.

Mai 2014 Territory: ww 053796 002266 This tribute to the great French baroque composer JeanPhilippe Rameau offers famous recordings and genuine rarities! Marcelle Meyer, one of the most celebrated 20th century pianists and as brilliant as she is versatile, recorded Rameau’s complete works for piano and the result created something of a sensation. Among the other gems in this box can be found the first recording of Hyppolyte et Aricie, the secular cantata Diane et Acréon featuring the incomparable Hugues Cuenod, a complete recording of the opera Platée, made at the Aix festival, the ballet Les Indes galantes as well as the Six Concerts en Sextuor. And last but not least a French doyenne of ancient music – Nadia Boulanger – has something to say that on no account should be missed. For this recording of excerpts from different operas she has assembled her favourite singers around her – the disc has cult status. The recordings originated between 1942 and 1956. Taking part, as well as those already mentioned, are Hans Rosbaud, Roger Desormière, Maurice Hewitt, Nicolai Gedda, Gérard Souzay, Michel Sénéchal, Irène Joachim, Doda Conrad, Paul Derenne and many others.

April 2015 Territory: ww Format: 10 CD-Wallet 4 053796 002235 Tchaikovsky is undoubtedly the best-loved of all Russian composers. His uninterrupted popularity and his international success are not least thanks to his wonderful, sensually romantic ballet scores of “Nutcracker”, “Sleeping Beauty”, and “Swan Lake”, which we present in this birthday box of original recordings from the 1950s. They are complete recordings (or in the case of “Swan lake” only slightly abridged versions) of outstanding artistic quality resulting from the conducting excellence of Antal Dorati (Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra) and Ernst Ansermet (L’Orchestre de la Suisse Romande), both Tchaikovsky specialists. Both of the complete opera recordings Eugen Onegin and “The Enchantress” are also typical Tchaikovsky compositions, passionate, full of feeling, brilliant. The stars of the Russian opera scene, among them Galina Vishnevskaya, Sergei Lemeshev, Eugeni Byelov and Ivan Petrov together with the chorus and orchestra of the Bolshoi theatre, Moscow are superbly directed by Boris Khaikin in a benchmark recording of Eugen Onegin. “The Enchantress”, here in a 1954 recording directed by Samuel Samodus is being rediscovered as a “Russian Carmen” on the European stage. And last but not least the pleasure of this wonderful music will be further enhanced by the charming original sleeves form the 1950s.
