On the back of the CD case is a photo that is basically a heads-up as to what you can expect from this debut album by 23-year-old jazz pianist Hiromi Uehara. She is standing outside wearing a black dress and a strange yellow-and-white wrap. Her face is turned up to the sky, her eyes and mouth closed, her jaw clenched; her arms are held straight down by her sides with her fingers splayed wide. It’s a stance that bespeaks intense energy and a certain defiance. Most of the music contained in the CD seems to have been made in a similar attitude, for better and, occasionally, for worse. Uehara plays with an almost demonic energy and amazing stamina; on a program that consists entirely of original compositions, most of them delivered in a standard piano trio format, she zips from style to style with a sense of urgency that borders at times on the manic. Her propulsive “XYZ” opens the album with churning intensity; “Double Personality” finds her alternating between nearly harmolodic free improvisation and carefully composed modern jazz; “Joy” offers a gentle breath of fresh air before she resumes her headlong musical charge. The album ends with a bonus track, an unaccompanied piano piece called “The Tom and Jerry Show,” which alternates between loopy, Carl Stalling-esque avant-gardism and high-speed ragtime. By the end of this album you’ll be tired, but it’s a good tired. Heaven only knows what her next album will sound like, but the laws of physics would seem to dictate that she’ll have to slow down a bit. (more…)

Charles Aznavour a récemment fait son grand retour sur la scène parisienne : 6 Palais des Sports à guichets fermés, après une tournée mondiale qui l’a emmené dans les plus grandes villes d’Europe, d’Amérique du Nord (notamment au Centre Bell de Montréal le 17 septembre 2014), de Russie et bien sûr à Erevan, en Arménie. Infatigable, cette tournée a suivi la sortie d’un nouvel album, Encores.
Prouvant une fois de plus que le désir de chanter n’a pas d’âge, il a proposé au public une nouvelle collection de chansons, toutes réalisées par Marc di Domenico. C’est donc très naturellement que ce dernier se trouve aujourd’hui aux commandes de ce live, tant à la réalisation de sa version audio que du film capté au Palais des Sports en septembre dernier. Avec toujours autant d’honnêteté et d’émotion, di Domenico restitue la vérité d’Aznavour, artiste à la fois phénoménal et insondable, libre et déterminé, aux détours d’une sélection de ses plus grandes chansons, ses plus grandes victoires.

The Stabat Mater is Dvorak’s most celebrated choral work. He began composing the piece in late 1875, but set it aside. Then, two tragedies befell him and he was plunged into an uncharacteristically melancholic mood. The deaths of his eleven-month-old daughter and three-year-old son compelled Dvorak to complete his masterpiece. Even though stricken with grief, Dvorak still could not resist writing simple, folk-like, melodies for his luminous Stabat Mater. On this performance, acclaimed conductor Mariss Jansons leads four superb soloists and the combined forces of the chorus and orchestra of the Bayerischen Rundfunk.
Recorded on March the 28th, 2015, at the KKL Luzern, Concert Hall.

FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/96 kHz | Time – 51:12minutes | 1,01 GB | Genre: Classical
Studio Master, Official Digital Download | Source: e-onkyo | @ EMI Classics
Recorded: No.35 – 22-23 October 1960 at Studio 1, Abbey Road, London; No.35 – 19 July 1956 at Kingsway Hall, London; K384 – 29 September 1960 at Kingsway Hall, London
…In his Haffner Symphony (No 35), Mozart deleted two movements of a previously written piece, made further minor emendations and produced this little masterpiece. The opening Allegro points the way to Klemperer’s approach to each of the three later works here which is as one would expect – serious, weighty and pointing towards Beethoven. The real skill comes from being weighty without being ponderous or losing the lightness inherent in Mozart. The delightful Andante – yet again one blesses the value of splitting the violins – the Minuet and Trio (wonderful balance), and a marvellously shaded Finale complete the opening symphony.
The Linz Symphony (No 36) was one of Mozart’s “written against the clock” pieces -there were so many in his short life – but the listener would never know. A slow introduction prefaces a steadily paced opening Allegro. The gently rocking Adagio that follows shows the quality of the original recording with its clarity in the inner parts. The Minuet and Trio point to rustic revelries rather than an elegant drawing room (lovely playing from the wind section) and in the Finale – played with tremendous dash – the trumpet parts add interesting variety. The exquisitely shaded contrasts between sections yet again show what a superb orchestra the Philharmonia was in its prime… Harry Downey, MusicWeb International
