Over the course of his nearly five decade career, trumpeter Freddie Hubbard established himself as one of the most versatile and inventive jazz musicians of the twentieth century. The Grammy-winning virtuoso appeared on some of the most important albums in the genre, including seminal works by Ornette Coleman, Herbie Hancock, Art Blakey, John Coltrane, and countless others. The Artistry Of Freddie Hubbard, his fifth album for Impulse!, is a spellbinding piece of jazz history. Hubbard’s molten lines are augmented by the trombone work of the legendary Curtis Fuller and tenor saxophonist John Gilmore of the Sun Ra Archestra. One of the all-time great jazz records.

For her third solo album for Sony Classical, the Operalia-winning soprano, Yoncheva turns her attention to the work of a composer for whom many feel she has always had a special affinity: Giuseppe Verdi. The music of Verdi forms the lodestone of most dramatic-lyric sopranos, and Yoncheva includes arias from some of the composer’s rarely-performed operas in addition to some of the most beloved ones. From the early operas, she sings arias from Nabucco (1842), Attila (1846), Luisa Miller (1849) and Stiffelio (1850). The latter aria is a prayer of forgiveness from a woman, the wife of a pastor, who has been unfaithful. ‘The emotional range of this aria is amazing, and musically it uses the whole voice from high to low- but amazingly it all happens in about two minutes.’

The album is reflective of Joseph’s flourishing career as one of the leading tenors. Regular performer at the world’s greatest opera houses.

Sax player Sophie Alour presents her new album "Time For Love". After several albums of original compositions, Sophie Alour turns to the standards, the timeless melodies of George Gershwin, Cole Porter, or Jerome Kern, thus paying homage to the singers like Ella Fitzerald, Shirley Horn or Joni Mitchell. "For the saxophonist I am," she says, "it's both a dream and a challenge to be measured by the human voice." A shock team for an unmissable concert with the sounds of love.

Intuition, a captivating album of short pieces for solo cello with piano or orchestra, has been conceived by Gautier Capuçon to “reflect the story of my life and follow the various stages in my emotional development”. It brings together much-loved numbers by composers such as Saint-Saëns, Fauré, Massenet, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov and Elgar with newer music by Astor Piazzolla, the Italian cellist Giovanni Sollima and the pianist Jérôme Ducros, who also appears on the album. As Gautier Capuçon says: “In music, in life, communication is the essence of everything and of anything … You share something.”

A village in the foothills of the Pyrenees, with a population of not much more than 400. An eleventhcentury church. A princely piano. And Robert Schumann, who on this CD, the third in a series that will eventually run to 14 covering the composer’s complete works for piano, is depicted between the ages of 27 and 28, at the peak of his visionary creative powers, under the infl uence of literature and an idea of music-making as a mission, a valiant struggle against conformity.

Classical music is not supposed to be fun, right? And yet, every concert of the Philharmonix is a living, grooving, finger-snapping testament to the contrary. And who exactly is having fun here? Is it the seven world-class musicians who get to play the kind of repertoire one would never see on the playbill of their legendary orchestras? Or is it the audience, whose eyes light up at their sparkling display of virtuosity and passion?

Following the reissue of his cult 1988 album 'Tijan Pou Velo', Heavenly Sweetness decided to continue their collaboration with Guadeloupean musician Edmony Krater and record a new album together, his first one in 30 years. As an avant-gardist percussionist, singer and trumpet player, Edmony Krater has always worked to develop and promote the gwoka music of Guadeloupe and to feed it with different influences, from jazz to reggae. This approach is again evident on 'An Ka Sonjé' as he merges these influences and sounds to mesmerising effect.
