On Friday, the first of two nights, the Dead hit an appreciative - and at times ecstatic - audience with a display of virtuosity which has been too long absent from these shores. Taking things to the very edge, like the true Wild West Frontiersmen of rock that they've always been, they covered old raga territory ('Candyman', 'Truckin'), newer material ('Feel Like A Stranger') before going back to their rock'n'roll roots with 'CC Rider' and 'Johnny B Goode.' - Record Mirror

Guns N' Roses, often abbreviated as GNR, is an American hard rock band from Los Angeles, California, formed in 1985. When they signed to Geffen Records in 1986, the band comprised vocalist Axl Rose, lead guitarist Slash, rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin, bassist Duff McKagan, and drummer Steven Adler. The current lineup consists of Rose, Slash, McKagan, guitarist Richard Fortus, drummer Frank Ferrer and keyboardists Dizzy Reed and Melissa Reese.

O Guns N'Roses surgiu em uma época em que o mainstream musical era dominado pelos timbres eletrônicos e trouxe de volta à popularidade o rock cru e pesado, com riffs de guitarra marcantes e músicas capazes de agitar e emocionar. A estreia do grupo californiano, liderado por Axl Rose e amparado pela guitarra de Slash, aconteceu em 1987, com o primeiro disco Appetite For Destruction, que virou rapidamente um clássico por conta das músicas Sweet Child O'Mine e Welcome To The Jungle. Com o enorme sucesso, a banda não demorou para lançar novos discos: em 1988 veio G N' R Lies e, em 1991, os dois volumes de Use Your Illusion, contendo o clássico November Rain. Em 1993, a banda lançou The Spaghetti Incident?. Aos poucos, os membros foram deixando o conjunto, o que ocasionou um grande hiato, encerrado com o álbum Chinese Democracy, de 2008, último inédito do conjunto.

With the inspiring title of “Musical Soul’s Delight”, the discovery of this impressive book of 40 Arias by Jacob Kremberg, published in Dresden 1689 by publisher Mathesius, felt much like stumbling on a treasure trove. The book’s title indicates the accompaniments “which are thus arranged so that they can be sung with one voice alone, next to the general bass, or at the same time and especially on the lute, angelique, viola di gamba, and guitar.” The viola da gamba part, written in tablature, has proven to be a unique and invaluable musical example of the cantare alla viola practice in Germany. These rich accompaniments double the voice’s melody over a supportive bass fundament while including the full harmony in between, sometimes with passages of double stops carrying two voices in parallel motion. Solo instrumental versions of the arias are therefore reasonable as a performance possibility since they are able to sing on their own. Considering it has never been recorded in its entirety, we decided a few years ago to commit to the arduous task of recording the complete book of arias choosing the version for the cantar alla viola duo with voice and viola da gamba, as well as the instrumental solo version of the viola da gamba.

The Danish National Symphony Orchestra (or DNSO) has gained prominence befitting its name, and has spawned the international careers of several important Danish and non-Danish conductors. For many years the group was known as the Danish National Radio Symphony Orchestra or Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and its origins were in the 1920s, but its history is only partly intertwined with that of radio broadcasting in Denmark.The DNSO was originally founded in 1925 by a group of musicians led by singer Emil Holm. There were only 11 players in the group, although that soon rose to 30 and to more than 90 by the late '40s. The new orchestra's conductor was Launy Grøndahl. Unusually, he took no formal title, and the orchestra had no principal conductor until Herbert Blomstedt assumed the title in 1967.

Herbert von Karajan was the most renowned conductor to emerge from Europe in the post-World War II era – and through fortuitous timing throughout his career, and in spite of controversy that dogged his early years, he was the most recorded conductor of the 20th century, and is likely to remain one of the most visible (and biggest-selling) conductors well into the 21st century. Born in Salzburg and descended from a family of Greek origin with deep roots in Austria – including scholars and physicians in Vienna and Salzburg – he was a music prodigy, playing the piano at three and playing his first recital a year later.
