Jazz is music of community, a continually developing social reflection on language and how it connects us creatively.

Håkan Hardenberger and Roland Pöntinen have enjoyed a fruitful artistic relationship for over forty years. They have played, toured and recorded together and have devoted much time and energy to repertoire ideas. ‘For us to create a new programme is an exciting, stimulating and fun process’, says Pöntinen. ‘A process that often mirrors our mutual interest in jazz, film and other art forms. The idea of juxtaposing works of contrasting characters, or composed centuries apart, can often shed new light on the music itself.’ We are treated here to recently composed works, arrangements, favourites of both musicians and standards from the Great American Songbook.

This album brings together Johannes Brahms’ two masterful sonatas for cello and piano, works often regarded as “veiled symphonies” for their symphonic breadth within the chamber music form. Written over two decades apart, these sonatas showcase Brahms’ profound love for the cello—an instrument he studied in his youth—and his deep engagement with musical traditions stretching from Bach to Beethoven. The E minor Sonata, Op. 38, conceived as an homage to Bach, unfolds with striking intensity, combining Romantic expressiveness with contrapuntal rigor. Its expansive first movement, dance-inspired minuet, and fugal finale embody Brahms’ ability to blend historical influences with fresh emotional resonance.

Furry Worried Ape (TER130) is the second album by Badge Epoch — Maximilian “Twig” Turnbull’s solitary variant of the Badge Époque Ensemble — and the first in his discography made almost entirely alone. Following 2021’s Scroll, a 2xLP sprawl which WIRE praised as “an attempt to fit a whole world onto two slabs of vinyl,” this one is all scalpel and no sprawl: six tracks, under half an hour, produced and mixed with forensic patience by Turnbull at Clyde’s Temple, his garage home-studio.

Listening to Schubert’s music is an invitation to enter an enchanting imaginary world, whose fragrance is so powerful that both listener and performer cannot help but surrender to the dream they feel blossoming within them, spellbound to the point of momentarily losing all sense of reality. Paradoxically, Schubert thus demands great mastery from the performer and a very precise knowledge of the smallest details of the score.

This album is a mastering of the concert performed by the Seikilos Quartet at the Fundacion Juan March on May 28, 2025. It features the world premiere recording of Quartet No. 10 (1945) and the Scherzo for String Quartet (1911) by Conrado del Campo (1878-1953), one of the most original and least known Spanish composers of the first half of the twentieth century.

Guilhem Fabre, trained at the Paris Conservatory and then at the Gnessin Academy in Moscow, sees music as a journey. He explores countries, disciplines (with Olivier Py, Jean Bellorini, Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt) and audiences, notably through uNopia, a traveling stage truck that has been bringing classical music to life throughout France since 2019. In four seasons, he has given around a hundred concerts with this stage truck in forests, village squares and suburbs. In July 2025, he will travel from Paris to Vienna. His second album Beethoven–Debussy, to be released in November 2025, is structured around the founding works of his career: Debussy's Images and Beethoven's Sonata No. 32.
