  • The POINT LESS podcast with Ola Onabule: Exit Wound
     
    Posted At : November 18, 2019 12:00 AM

    After a tragic loss, a parent is inundated with words of condolences and must ponder the real value and meaning of these words. Are they meant in all sincerity or are they just platitudes? Are these words spoken merely to salve the conscience of the well-wisher. In situations where the tragedy is avoidable, Can the energy expended in composing theses elaborately worded but useless phrases be put into preventing the sad event in the first place. Do words have any meaning if they are un-yoked from deeds and action. Listen to the podcast The POINT LESS podcast is a series that boldly expresses views on social injustice. It is an activist's call - at once a celebration of life and a cautionary take on the social forces that threaten it. Violence, immigration, xenophobia, betrayal, and dignity are themes considered and rendered with a powerful and knowing generosity of spirit.So embodies the artistic - and entrepreneurial - philosophy of Onabulé, whose latest album release, Point Less, is a giant leap forward and deeply soulful Rueful yet optimistic, Onabulé's reach is global. His three-and-a-half octave baritone and the powerful emotions he conveys with it connects with audiences around the world. "Hands-on, self-sufficiency has always been my mantra for survival in the music game," says the songwriter.

  • Ofra Harnoy - Back to Bach is WFMT: Featured New Release
     
    Posted At : November 16, 2019 12:00 AM

    This album presents a number of tried and true Baroque favorites on the cello, as well as some slightly lesser-known gems from composers such as Allegri and Corelli, which Ofra Harnoy interprets with the profound musicality and passion she is known for. She has decided to use brass as accompaniment for some works, and for others has created a cello ensemble through overdubbing and multi-tracking techniques. Using modern technology, this recording gives Harnoy a whole new way to explore this centuries-old music and present it to listeners exactly as she hears it herself.

Angele Dubeau and La Pieta Turn From Film to Games

Ang?le Dubeau & La Piet?: Angry Birds Theme

          Angele Dubeau, one of Canada's premier violinists, and her all-female string orchestra are bringing a classical flair to some of their favorite video game music.  After last years release "A Time For Us," which covered music from popular movies by composers like Howard Shore and John Williams, the group has turned its sights to the gaming world. "I have always strived to interest young people in classical music because I feel it has the power to touch everyone. Seeing the passion of young people for video games, I wanted to understand the secrets of their success and to evaluate their musical value," says Dubeau.

            And so in their latest release, aptly titled "Game Music," Dubeau and company are covering the themes to all manner of video games. From the iconic Tetris theme (itself already an arrangement of classical music from both Russian tradition and Johann Bach) to the theme from the iPhone's breakout hit Angry Birds the group has covered a wide range of gamer music. Avoiding some of the more obvious hokey themes that get trapped in gamers heads (think Mario) the group has instead focused on games with already beautiful soundtracks such as Final Fantasy, Assassin's Creed, and Halo 3. "I wanted to avoid distorting [the songs], and my intention has been to preserve the form that initially won over video game aficionados while at the same time breathing new life into them."

    Ovation

    In December 2017, with two sold-out concerts at the Maison symphonique de Montréal, the tour celebrating Angèle Dubeau & La Pietà's 20th anniversary came to an end. This tour of thirty-three concerts was, for the violinist, an opportunity to thank her Quebec fans for the support they had given her throughout her career.

    It was on that tour, during the concerts at Palais Montcalm in Quebec City, that Ovation was recorded. This new album features a retrospective program composed of works by the likes of Einaudi, Richter, Glass, Enescu and Saint-Saens and which have been landmarks of the first 20 years of La Pietà's career. The album also showcases a violinist at the top of her form and a concert where magic and perfection are in symbiosis.

The new album Max Richter: Portrait by Angèle Dubeau & La Pietà is a striking addition to the Portrait series, music of great depth and acute sensitivity.

    Blanc

    "BLANC like purity and serenity. BLANC for luminous music that can bring interior peace through its strength and powerful evocation. Fully charged emotions that reflect the strange solitude found in illness. After months of battle against cancer, music has been my focal point, it has brought me comfort, tranquillity and sometimes, an essential escape. This music is of Brubeck, Dompierre, Golijov, Hisaishi, Morricone, Mozetich, Munsey, O'Connor, Phillips, Sakamoto, Schyman and Stevens. A music without artifice, real and filled with hope. This album tells my story, the story of a woman like many others who had to fight against illness and, serenely, came out of it stronger." The Quebec Breast Cancer Foundation Thanks You Thank you. By buying this album, you will be helping the Quebec Breast Cancer Foundation to finance research and innovation, to support women affected by breast cancer and make breast cancer health a priority thanks to initiatives in education and awareness.
