Nelson Freire brings a lifetime’s experience to his first-ever album devoted to the music of J.S Bach. It was recorded in Freire’s 70th birthday year and provides a superb overview of Bach on the piano: towering original works such as the Fourth Partita and Chromatic Fantasy & Fugue; one of Bach’s own keyboard transcriptions (the sublime slow movement of Marcello’s Oboe Concerto) plus a selection of transcriptions by Busoni, Siloti and Myra Hess.

Credo valga la pena chiederci perché si ascolta musica e cosa ci si aspetta da questa esperienza. Personalmente, oltre al piacere estetico che si prova di fronte ad una composizione interessante, un buon arrangiamento o una improvvisazione ben riuscita, quello che mi aspetto dalla musica è che essa susciti emozioni, che tocchi le corde più profonde dell’anima e le faccia vibrare, che “muova” dentro. Attraverso l’alchimia di suoni e silenzi abbiamo accesso a spazi interiori profondi e possiamo sperimentare “moods” differenti a seconda del momento, del nostro stato d’animo e del tipo di musica ascoltata. Quando ciò accade si realizza la “magia” dell’ascolto, fenomeno misterioso e irrazionale, evento imponderabile, non programmabile, reale eppur elusivo. Immergendoci nei suoni, come nel mare, scompaiono i confini tra esterno ed interno e, sospinti dalle onde sonore, ci lasciamo trasportare dalla corrente musicale verso lidi sconosciuti. I brani presentati in questo cd rappresentano la sintesi delle esperienze musicali maturate nel corso della mia vita. La passione per il mondo dei suoni, sviluppatasi sin da quando ero bambino, mi ha spinto ad una continua ricerca di differenti stili musicali che ho approfondito anche attraverso viaggi in paesi lontani per scoprire le “fonti”. Poi, poco a poco e spesso faticosamente, ognuno trova la propria strada, il proprio centro, ed in esso si raccoglie. Considererei realizzato questo lavoro se la musica qui proposta riuscisse a far scoccare quella scintilla emozionale così preziosa ed ineffabile. --Nagùal
Nagùal, secondo la tradizione messicana, è il nome che indica l’animale in cui gli stregoni si trasformano durante i rituali religiosi o lo stregone che attua tale trasformazione.

Genre: Classical

George Frideric Handel had an outstanding trumpeter in his orchestra: Valentine Snow. "Mr. Handel's Trumpeter," as he was later called, inspired Handel to write numerous tailor-made trumpet parts for him. In contrast to his contemporaries, Handel was interested less in virtuosity, than in mellifluous sound and dramatic effect, as reflected in the pieces on this CD. The point of departure for the recording is provided by the trumpet music of Purcell and his contemporaries, music that clearly displays Italian influence and formed the foundation for Handel's compositions.
Johann Plietzsch lets his Baroque Trumpet Ensemble Berlin resound richly colored on this third Raumklang CD with eight trumpets, timpani, and basso continuo, perfectly balanced dramatically with the soft tones of the lute and organ.

Workin' with the Miles Davis Quintet is an album recorded in 1956 by Miles Davis. Two sessions on May 11, 1956 and October 26 in the same year resulted in four albums—this one, Relaxin' with the Miles Davis Quintet, Steamin' with the Miles Davis Quintet and Cookin' with the Miles Davis Quintet. Track 2 is a composition written for Davis by Eddie Vinson (see Blue Haze for more details). "Trane's Blues" (also known as "Vierd Blues", a tongue-in-cheek reference to Blue Note founder Francis Wolff's heavily accented verdict on it), also credited to Davis, is in fact a John Coltrane composition (originally titled "John Paul Jones", and from an earlier session led by bassist Paul Chambers; before the closing statement of theme, Coltrane and Davis play a bit of Charlie Parker's "The Hymn"). Paul Chambers plays a cello bassline on "Half Nelson".

This was a forerunner of the Miles Davis Quintet as it was his first session with Red Garland and Philly Joe Jones. Up to then his Prestige dates had been of the "all star" variety. (Oscar Pettiford fills that bill here.) By the fall, John Coltrane and Paul Chambers would come aboard to help form the first of a continuum of great Davis working groups. On "A Night in Tunisia" Philly Joe used special sticks with little cymbals riveted to the shaft.
