The Magic Time Machine of Love finds Nashville's Burrito Brothers-Chris P. James (vocals/keys), Bob Hatter (guitars), Tony Paoletta (pedal steel) and Peter Young (drums)-pushing cosmic-American music into tomorrow with eleven tracks that mingle fresh songwriting with daring reinventions: Gram Parsons' voice, isolated via the same AI technology used on the Beatles' "Now and Then," soars alongside the band on "Pride of Man" and "More and More," while Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale" appears in a lush country-soul arrangement restoring Keith Reid's unused verses. Original Flying Burrito alumni Jon Corneal and Ian Dunlop swagger through "Used to Do," steel-guitar legend Al Perkins adds shimmer to "More and More," and the James Brothers lend harmonies to a twang-kissed cover of the Beatles' "What Goes On." From the progressive-country sweep of "Tales of Desire" to the vintage Bakersfield snap of "Love Blast," this limited-edition CD bridges past and present, expanding the Burrito legacy while honoring the genre's richest traditions.

This release focuses on a unique selection from Beethoven's late period: works for piano with an optional flute part - ad libitum - that reveal a rarely explored, yet all the more fascinating side of the composer. Framing Beethoven's monumental Hammerklavier Sonata, the two sets of folk song variations form the greatest conceivable contrast to this pianistic summit work. While the sonata, with its formal and technical radicalism, is considered the epitome of Beethoven's late style, the surrounding pieces are characterised by cantabile lines, accessible virtuosity and a sense of chamber-like lightness.

Although he had famous students (amongst whom Szymanowski) and a famous teacher, Moniuszko, few listeners know much, if anything, about Zygmunt Noskowski. And yet, for most of the 19th century, he was the primary exponent of modern symphonic music in Poland. His Third Symphony and his symphonic poem The Steppe, Op. 66 blend sweeping Romanticism with Polish folk spirit. The symphony is a journey through the seasons while The Steppe evokes Poland's vast landscapes with colourful hints of Borodin's In the Steppes of Central Asia.
