Brazilian music by musician and composer Martinho José Ferreira (Duas Barras, 1938), aka "Martinho da Vila '. It is the sixth studio album released in his career. Since age 13 Martinho began frequenting the samba schools. In 1966 he moved to the samba school Unidos de Vila Isabel', where he adopted his nickname 'Martinho da Vila' and began composing his new style of samba. Martinho is a legitimate representative of Brazilian popular music and eclectic composer.

With ten studio releases and almost as many live recordings available, there will surely be some people saying "not more Masada!" Sanhedrin is a collection of studio outtakes, recorded at eight different sessions from 1994 through 1997. All of these tunes but one ("Nefesh") have been released in other takes before, but that's not really the point. This band has become one of the finest jazz ensembles of the last several decades, and there will probably come a time when folks will be drooling over any previously unreleased scraps the same way they do today over lost Monk and Coltrane recordings. The improvisations and interactions – not to mention the dynamics – can change from one performance to the next, and it's interesting to hear how these players approach the tunes on different takes.

Liner Notes by William Parker: “I see three small boats with three musicians crossing this lovely lake of sound they reach the shore and it began to rain sunlight”. If the same piece of music is played multiple times it will take on a new life at each performance. When improvisation is added the music becomes new music that did not exist before. The music I speak about is the music coming from “HEAR in NOW”, the trio consisting of Mazz Swift on violin, Tomeka Reid on cello and Silvia Bolognesi on bass. They begin by telling us stories, these stories have all kinds of twists and turns plots and counterplots. They may go back into history or move forward into the future.

Celebrating his 80th birthday in 2012, Per Nørgård is undoubtedly one of the most important Danish composers since Nielsen. This disc brings together his two violin concertos as well as the orchestral work Spaces of Time. The music of Helle Nacht (‘bright night’) has several transparent layers, and at each hearing the listener will be able to experience the work differently. The transparency of the music is even more pronounced in the version for chamber orchestra, created especially for Peter Herresthal.

Although most of Heinrich Schütz's surviving music is for the church, his first published work was this set of Italian madrigals–a remarkable collection of pieces that perfectly capture the style while continually throwing off sparks of originality. Dedicated to a patron back in Germany who funded his two-year study in Venice with the great master, Giovanni Gabrieli, these 19 madrigals are rich in imagery and occasionally make tantalizingly brief forays into harmonic territory reminiscent of Gesualdo.
