ALBUM OF THE MONTH
PARK THE STRESS
AND LET GO WITH
THESE ALBUMS:
EINAUDI:
A new album for
all his fans inspired by the
Elements
with a beautiful
cover sketched by Einaudi
himself. This beautiful and
evocative music is sure to
become the soundtrack to
your summer.
CLASSICALLY CHILLED:
Forget about work, just let go
and chill (as seen on SBS).
Forbidden no more –
recording engineers in the
Sistine Chapel. The
Sistine
Chapel Choir
records the
most beautifully relaxing and
evocative choral album you’ll
hear –
Cantate Domino
.
What’s happening to classical
music? One of the world’s
foremost classical violinists
has gone clubbing and she
loves it so much, she’s made
a new record. From Bach to
John Williams,
Anne-Sophie
Mutter
jams with a whole host
of outrageously gifted musos on
The Club Album
.
LET’S GO CLUBBING
LET’S REMEMBER
The Latinos do the Italians… Star tenor
Juan Diego Flórez
spends
time on the Amalfi coast and records a fantastic new album of
Italian songs you know and love. It’s called
Italia
. Meanwhile,
Rolando Villazón
travels all over Italy for a beautiful new album
Treasures of Bel Canto
– songs you too can sing gathered round
a piano. Take some lessons from Rolando!
LET’S GO ITALIAN
LET’S CHILL
LET US PRAY
Much anticipated movies –
Macbeth
, just on the eve of the
big Shakespeare anniversary next year, and the new Bond
film
Spectre
complete with the instrumental version of
Sam Smith’s ‘Writing’s On The Wall’. Soundtracks on Decca.
LET’S GO TO THE MOVIES
LET’S FALL IN LOVE
Grammy-Award winning
Wouter Kellerman
plays the flute and has
collaborated with some of
the top musicians in the
world. From Senegal and
Spain, Cuba and India,
Greece and the United States,
Love Language
encapsulates the myriad ways we connect on the
topics of life and love.
LET’S GO VISIT HENRY VIII
…and get our heads chopped off?
Well, no danger of that. Everyone
knows the fantastic TV series and
Eloquence now releases the real
music from Henry VIII’s time (did
you know he was a composer
too?): three albums in the new CD
series
The Tudors
. And from ABC
Classics’ foremost Baroque chamber
ensemble,
Latitude 37
, there’s even more royalty
on offer in the form of
Royal Consorts
.
Gallipoli Symphony
(DVD) is a deeply compelling new piece telling the story of the event that
defined our nation – and, for the first time, it brings together music by leading composers from
the three countries involved: Australia, New Zealand and Turkey. ABC filmed the world-premiere
performance in the magnificent Hagia Eirene in Istanbul this year.
