Dean Evenson, Scott Huckabay, Burke Mulvany – Across the Valley (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , , , , , , |

“It breaks down in very old trees, it grows under bare feet on desirable grass, and from the water in the early morning mosquitoes grow. -Across the Valley- literally a living book in your hands, traveling on a page that dissolves in your eyes with all the great music.”

“Расступаются в стороны тени вековых деревьев, тает под босыми ногами пожелтевшая трава, а от воды ранним утром поднимаются комары. -Across the Valley- словно ожившая книга в ваших руках, путешествуя по страницам которой растворяешься в лучах обволакивающей тебя со всех сторон музыки.”

Joshua Carlton – Remember me as light (Video)

Categories: Neoclassical, The Latest, Video|Tags: , , , |

“Field recordings and gentle piano soothe the listener in Joshua Carlton’s Remember Me As Light. An evocative piece that lulls the listener gently as it weaves it’s calming magic. The track feels agonisingly brief, but that only adds to its mystery and allure. ”

“This is the closing song from my full length album titled moonlight under the black flag. I really love the gentle nature as the piano slowly grows and the ambience takes over With a sudden stop into nothingness.” – Joshua Carlton

Franco Esteve – Apocalypse (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , , , |

“Franco Esteve has delivered on the titles promise in the aptly titled track, Apocalypse. Unsettling and thought provoking, Apocalypse is an exploration in dissonance and contrast that weaves and twirls as it moves towards its sudden conclusion. A piece worthy of our current uncertain times.”

-Nagamag.com

Apocalypse is the title track to the short film, Apocalypse, The Doll Chronicles, part of The Doll Chronicles series. It’s a contemporary classical crossover piece that encompasses the essence of the film and communicates that post-apocalyptic sense of alarm while soothingly traveling through that landscape.

Innocenzo Genna – The Girl With the Pearl Earrings (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“Well that's not the usual Neoclassical piece. "The Girl With the Pearl Earrings" took years to get its final form and it worthed the effort! Inspiring piano melodies with melancholic taste that can prove the great power of affection existing in such work. "Innocenzo Genna" surely knows how to attract our attention.”

-Nagamag.com

Artist shared few words behind this inspiration with Nagamag:

"To tell the truth, this composition is not about the painting of Johannes Vermeer, only later I realized that the title could create some confusion. However, it was too late, all the listeners believed that it was my personal celebration to the famous portrait and I accepted. To complete the story, the inspiration for this music emerged in the last days of July of 2011, while coming back from Patinoire, a place in Brussels where expats, most of them Italians, are used to meet for aperitivo, chatting and dancing. Clearly, I met a girl wearing pearl earring, a person who would have changed my life for a while. The leit motiv of the composition emerged during the night, however it took some months to get up to the complete version. A good friend of mine told me that this is a tormenting, heartbreaking music reflecting the consequences of meeting the girl ..." Innocenzo Genna

Steve Luck – Small Song of Hope (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , |

“work joining a beautiful melodious piano pattern. -Small Song of Hope- is a real anthem from soulful hands. Lyrical prayer about light and rescue of the soul. For a moment you want to accomplish something great and bright, wake up the frozen volcanoes in the chest and fade up!”

“Прекрасное вступление с красивым мелодичным рисунком пиано. -Small Song of Hope- это настоящий гимн от любой душевной хвори, лирическая молитва о свете и спасении души. В мгновение хочется свершить нечто великое и светлое, разбудить застывшие вулканы в груди и воспарить ввысь!”

-Nagamag.com

Emerging from the pandemic lockdown period, this solo piano piece was recorded on a felted Kawai upright piano at my home in Newcastle Upon Tyne UK. The composition was inspired by the idea that often in life it is the small, seemingly unimportant things that can give the most satisfaction.

“Beautiful Cinematic work inspired by our natural environment. Smooth acoustic melodies and background sounds from the sea. "Runswick" can take you away from everyday madness by oppening the door to a dreamy world.”

Artist shared few words with Nagamag behind this inspiration:

"This piece was recorded on a remote beach in the north east of the UK. It is a live performance on a piano that was fully restored and rebuilt by myself. The piece is entirely improvised around a family that were on the beach together whilst I was recording, I found myself inspired by their happiness and tactility in a world that is currently so sad and disconnected. https://vimeo.com/560280474 "

Jonathan Fitas – Inside (Video)

Categories: Neoclassical, The Latest, Video|Tags: , , , , |

“”Inside” offers the silent power of Downtempo, pure and untouched, directly in your place. Rich electronic textures fill the air with mesmerizing vibrations and can simply leave us speechless. Highly recommended piece for every listener.”

-Nagamag.com

Known for his multimedia works that make use of space and audiovisual immersion, Jonathan Fitas’ music is a subtle mix between classical music, electronic textures and sound design. Fitas has built the sonic signature for brands such as Hugo Boss, Asics and Volkswagen thanks to an extraordinary ability to create very cinematic melodies and ambiences. This ability was also employed to conceptualize an acoustic immersive experience for two 2019 multimedia exhibitions held at “Atelier des Lumières” art centre in Paris.

The unfolding of Jonathan Fitas’ first EP “Beyond The Loop”, released on naïve today (June 18th 2021), resembles the soundtrack of an epic film, at times tinged with nostalgia, and testifies to the autobiographical dimension of the composer’s work. By opening classical music to new sonorities, Fitas’ embodies the renewal of a stammering music scene.
