| Tactile WOUTER SNOEI "Snoei's compositions cover a broad range, from strictly synthetic to the most divergent forms of live electronics. That he has also played a leading role in dance music (in 1997 he won the 'Grote Prijs van Nederland' competition) marks him as a composer of the youngest generation, who no longer heed the ridiculous trench warfare between "serious" and "light" that spoiled twentieth-century musical thinking. Like Aristotle, Wouter Snoei sees that tragedy and comedy are like a brother and sister who cannot do without each other." Konrad Boehmer New Dutch Electroacoustic Music series Vol. 2 |

| The New Music of REGINALD FORESYTHE (1907-1958) Extensive research by Willem Breuker has resulted in the CD release of the work by the British, almost forgotten composer/pianist, Reginald Foresythe (1907-1958). English jazz publicist Val Wilmer and Dutch jazz historian Herman Openneer came up with the historical photographic material and liner notes. All the recordings are from the period 1933-1945 and are performed by Foresythe’s own orchestra as well as by the orchestras of Earl Hines, Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller, Benny Goodman and Paul Whiteman. The original 78 rpm records were restored by Harry Coster. This CD is unique because Foresythe’s work has been unavailable for a long time on records, even in the U.K.. |

| Duo 7090 presents BÉTON ARMÉ Chamber Music by Iannis Xenakis This cd originated from the wish to reproduce the power and energy of Xenakis' music.

Pieces for violin, piano, trombone and string trio. |
