Friedrich Kiel enjoyed great prestige as a professor of composition in Berlin where his many students included Stanford and Paderewski. As a teacher he remained broad-minded and undogmatic. These elegantly poised works show a rather conservative craftsman but one who absorbed the influences of the best of his contemporaries – Chopin, Mendelssohn, Schumann and Liszt. The Suite is Beethovenian in style, while his approach in the Six Fugues is largely lyrical.

Celia Caridad Cruz Alfonso[a] (21 October 1925 – 16 July 2003), known as Celia Cruz, was a Cuban singer and one of the most popular Latin artists of the 20th century.

She had sold over 30 million records, making her one of the best-selling Latin music artists.

“Women Deserve Rage” marks Imany’s return. A powerful work that resonates like a manifesto of emancipation. Born from a vital need to reclaim her truth, it carries the voice of a woman who chooses to be reborn free. An album shaped by time, heart, and guts. It speaks of open and closed wounds, of healing as a legacy, of transmission as a duty, and of a lucid love. A love that doesn’t hide its face, but looks straight into the shadows and draws light from them.

Pianist Marc Cary, best-known for playing with Art Taylor's Wailers and Roy Hargrove, mostly sticks to originals on his debut CD as a leader. With the assistance of trumpeter Roy Hargrove, Ron Blake on tenor, bassist Dwayne Burno, drummer Dion Parson and guest shots from flutist Yarborough Charles Laws and vocalist Charlene Fitzpatrick, Cary constructs a well-paced program of adventurous but chordal-based jazz and he displays a fairly original voice on piano. This is a strong first step for the talented pianist.

There are moments in music when time seems to pause, and with Arcangelo Corelli’s music, I have experienced that enchanted stillness—where each note is not just heard but felt deeply. His music, elegant and radiant, is the gentle whisper of a bygone era, yet it breathes timeless warmth and light.

Galina Ustvolskaya was a profoundly original composer, unrivalled in the extremism of her style, who was largely ignored during her lifetime. Fiercely independent, Ustvolskaya created highly expressive, even violent music that sounds like the work of no other composer and reveals no distinct influences, while often being imbued with religiosity or spirituality. Her music has been described as having the ‘narrowness of a laser beam capable of piercing metal’.
