Pianist Lee Yoon Soo captures the crystalline elegance and emotional depth of Mozart in this exquisite live recording, MOZART: SONATAS AND RONDO LIVE IN TONGYEONG, performed at the acoustically renowned Tongyeong Concert Hall in 2023. The album features masterful interpretations of two cornerstone sonatas—No. 10 in C Major, K.330, with its graceful Allegro moderato and tender Andante cantabile, and No. 12 in F Major, K.332, showcasing dynamic contrast between its spirited Allegro and serene Adagio—culminating in the poignant Rondo in A Minor, K.511, a work of profound introspection. Recorded with pristine clarity, the performance highlights both Lee's technical precision and the hall's celebrated resonance.

The Symphony No. 4 in G major by Gustav Mahler was composed from 1899 to 1900, though it incorporates a song originally written in 1892. That song, "Das himmlische Leben" ("The Heavenly Life"), presents a child's vision of heaven and is sung by a soprano in the symphony's Finale. Both smaller in orchestration and shorter in length than Mahler's earlier symphonies, the Fourth Symphony was initially planned to be in six movements, alternating between three instrumental and three vocal movements.

Norma is a tragedia lirica or opera in two acts by Vincenzo Bellini with libretto by Felice Romani after the play Norma, ou L'infanticide (Norma, or The Infanticide) by Alexandre Soumet.

The opera is regarded as a leading example of the bel canto genre with the soprano prayer "Casta diva" in Act 1 as one of ist most famous pieces. Melody Moore shines in the title role of Norma which is one of the most difficult in the soprano repertoire.

Ivy is one of those bands whose beginnings may sound humble and ordinary, but whose debut album Hush, surges with scale and ambition. Meeting at school in Ōtepoti Dunedin during Covid, James Michael Axton (guitar, vocals), Connor James Cooper (bass), Ocean Temple Wilson (drums), Louis McAuley Stevenson (violin, backing vocals), and Jesse Tod Rutherford Hanan (vocals, guitar) forged their bond in practice rooms and late-night jams before honing their craft on the local scene. Along the way they built momentum with a series of smouldering singles and marked their rise by winning Bring the Noise 2023. Now comes Hush: self-composed, self-produced, and self-contained. It marries the weight of progressive rock and heavy metal with a classical ear for structure, while drawing shades of Radiohead’s OK Computer. At the heart of it are vocals that are both controlled and otherworldly, shaping the emotional contours of the record as much as the violin, guitars and drums.

Wilhelm Taubert was a significant composer and teacher in Berlin during a period when the city began to rival Vienna and Paris as a European musical powerhouse. Though it was also a time when the piano had reached its zenith in size and tonal depth, Taubert’s graceful, conservative style was perfectly suited to the instrument. His sonatas fuse Beethovenian elements with those of Weber, and feature slow movements that draw on rich operatic lyricism reminiscent of Rossini or Cherubini.

This recording is dedicated to two recent concertos by Kalevi Aho, one of Finland’s foremost contemporary composers. The author of a body of work as important as it is varied, Aho enjoys collaborating with exceptional soloists, for whom he composes works that highlight their musical qualities, inventiveness and personality. The Concerto for Alto Flute and Strings features an instrument with a soft tone, well suited as a soloist with a small orchestra of strings alone. The work is in six movements played without interruption, and the soloist, Sharon Bezaly, sometimes switches to the bass flute, which brings a mystical feel to the music.
