This album is entirely dedicated to the piano works of Muzio Clementi, the "father of the piano". Clementi composed almost 110 piano sonatas. Erik Satie, a contemporary of Debussy, later parodied the style of the early sonatas (also "Sonatinen") in his "Sonatine bureaucratique"

With their new album, the ensemble combines early Renaissance music with minimal music - and that sounds simply fascinating in combination and with old instruments. Between the Franco-Flemish composer Guillaume Dufay (c. 1400-1474) and the American minimal music icon Philip Glass (*1937) lie about 600 years of music history. Nevertheless, their respective musical languages possess an astonishing kinship, not least in their refined handling of rhythm and melody.

On the 'Sony Classical' label - Acclaimed violin virtuoso, Leonidas Kavakos, returns with his newest album ‘Beethoven Violin Concerto’. Kavakos is recognised across the world as a violinist and artist of rare quality, known at the highest level for his virtuosity, superb musicianship and the integrity of his playing. By the age of 21, Leonidas Kavakos had already won three major competitions: the Sibelius Competition in 1985, and the Paganini and Naumburg competitions in 1988. He now works with the world’s greatest orchestras and conductors.

After his triumphantly received debut album for Deutsche Grammophon devoted to J. S. Bach’s violin concertos, the young Swedish violinist Daniel Lozakovich now delves into the Russian Romantic repertoire.

Foals' creative ambition for 'Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 1' resulted in a striking state-of-the-world-address of an album in which apocalyptic lyrical themes were equalled by the sheer impact of the music. It emerged as an immediate album of the year contender, with many hailing it as the finest moment in a consistently critically-acclaimed career. That status was cemented when it was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize last week. Now Foals complete that artistic statement with 'Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 2'. The album has been launched with the lead track 'Black Bull'.

Malice in Wonderland is the eleventh studio album by the Scottish hard rock band Nazareth, released in 1980. After the heavy lurch of the previous album, the band chose to follow a more commercial path and the album produced the hit singles "Holiday" and "Heart's Grown Cold". The latter was covered by U.S. Southern Rock band Blackfoot on their 1983 album Siogo.

Jazzrausch Bigband is the latest group to join the ACT family of artists, and it stands out being as unique in several respects, in the first place for its size and versatility: it has more than 40 musicians as regular members. Jazzrausch plays an average of 120 concerts a year, which would clearly be impossible to achieve without this bench-strength. Within one year the ensemble has performed at Lincoln Center in New York, the JZ Festival in Shanghai, the Safaricom International Jazz Festival in Nairobi, the Ural Music Night in Yekaterinburg and the SXSW in Austin TX. There is probably no other jazz orchestra in the world which is quite as busy, in demand and successful as Jazzrausch. And there is also no other orchestra which reaches audiences as young as it does, notably people who had hitherto been very distant from jazz.

George Li gained international attention in 2015 when he won the silver medal in the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. Now he has recorded one of Tchaikovsky’s greatest and best-loved works, the Piano Concerto No 1 with the London Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Vasily Petrenko. The New York Times has called him a “real revelation” in the work. It is complemented by three solo pieces by Liszt, a composer who featured on his debut Warner Classics recital, judged “a winner” by International Piano magazine.

Amanda Martinez has a new album coming out this summer, and you could be one of the first people to hear it.

Essential: a masterpiece of prog rock music.
I leave you with this gem of symphonic-rock from Eastern Europe, this group is in the same style of "The Nice" and "ELP", so, ladies and gentlemen: "Collegium Musicum" from Slovakia.
There's much of Keith Emerson in Marion Varga's playing, but this double album is more than a tribute to a way of playing the Hammond.

Real Friends, the third Warner Music Nashville project from country music recording artist and singer / songwriter Chris Janson, will be released on October 18, 2019.

Essential: a masterpiece of progressive rock music
Having enjoyed SBB 2nd and 3rd album I finally get used to the kind of music they play and I think this 4th album "Ze Słowem Biegnę Do Ciebie" is the best for my personal taste.

Essential: a masterpiece of progressive rock music
I believe this was the first studio album they released back in 1975, although they did release "Pamiec" later the same year. I actually like this one better then "Pamiec".

Essential: a masterpiece of progressive rock music.
The first ever release of SBB and it's a Live album!
Already experienced musicians stretching out in a fashion that prior to this LP was unheard of in Eastern Europe. Indeed, rather uncommon anywhere else.

Welcome to the surprising sonic jungle-world of hip hop influenced Danish group Abekejser. It’s jazz music you can dance to. It’s live electronica with sharp snares and experimental beats. It’s power-music cut through with heavy jazz harmony. Captivating melodies on flaming synthesisers and distorted guitars. The result of two years work, their debut full-length album Floating Through The Universe takes you on a journey from cinematic soundtrack-like themes through to hard-hitting rock riffs and danceable disco jazz, complete with vocoder on lead vocals. And with references as diverse as such as Herbie Hancock, Daft Punk and Robert Glasper, this forward-thinking music is presented with a scattering of nostalgic vibes.
