A word from Angèle Dubeau…I have never placed limits on my choice of repertoire, and for this project, I reached toward a unique world that was creative and vibrant in its originality. In my quest to discover the gems of modern music, I listened to many works written and revisited by composers of great talent. When I began my research, video games quickly emerged as a logical avenue of exploration. 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. On my most recent recording, I approached movie music without consideration for the images and scenes that inspired it, and I took the same tack in reviewing the gold mine that is video game music. I have assembled here the works that spoke to me, giving no real thought to the adventures they accompany. I immersed myself in the worlds that created these excerpts, and I conveyed my new conception to the musicians of La Pietà, going into great detail to bring forth all of their beauty and power. Above all, I wanted to avoid distorting them, 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.So it is with great pleasure that I invite you to dive into the fantastical world of video games with me. Angèle Dubeau O.C., C.Q.

Druga płyta Damiena Rice’a, stworzona po czterech latach, jakie minęły od brytyjskiej premiery "O” - wielce uznanej przez krytyków poprzedniczki. Jeden z najbardziej rozpoznawalnych utworów Damiena, to piosenka "The Blower’s Daughter", która pięknie wybrzmiewa także w filmie "Bliżej" Mike Nicholsa z 2004 roku i - na szczęście - nie odbiega od niej daleko stylistycznie pierwszy singel z nowego albumu Rice’a, zatytułowany 9 Crimes. To płyta dla wielbicieli Thoma Yorke’a, Davida Graya i paru innych, bardzo utalentowanych ’smutasów’, którzy sami komponują i wykonują swoje utwory. "Tworząc utwory wyrażasz swoje emocje, często niedojrzale - tłumaczy Rice - mimo że opisujesz je w wyszukany sposób. Wydaje mi się, że ktoś zrównoważony i poukładany, nie widzi problemów w reszcie świata. Gdy jednak nie jesteś taką osobą, gdy jesteś niespokojny, próbujesz złapać równowagę - dostrzegasz niedoskonałości otoczenia. Zaczynają cię drażnić. Piszesz o tym, co cię frustruje i dajesz upust emocjom. Czuję, że choć pisanie piosenek może być pięknym środkiem wyrazu, to jednak z natury jest dziecinne... Pieprzyć to! Ważne że ekscytuje! Kto powiedział, że trzeba być dojrzałym i doskonałym?”.

This is The Brabant Ensemble’s third disc for Hyperion. Under their director, eminent musicologist Dr Stephen Rice, they continue to excavate jewels of the sixteenth-century choral repertoire which have until now remained under-performed and under-represented in music history. Their natural and instinctive performing style, which foregrounds the essential vocal qualities of this music, unlike the instrumental tone of other early music choirs, brings these beautiful and complex works abundantly to life. Gombert’s motets are the heart of his writing and this selection of them allows the range of his musical accomplishments to fully emerge. Often seen as written in penance for heinous crimes committed by the composer, many of them are settings of various texts of penitence, sorrow and yearning for deliverance from punishment. Images such as the ‘hellish lake’ in Tribulatio et angustia are dramatically explored. Also on this disc are motets for the adulation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which surprisingly demonstrate an especially intensified and dissonant musical style, showing the almost erotic level of devotion suggested in some of the greatest art of this period.GRAMOPHONE AWARDS SHORTLIST 2008; GRAMOPHONE EDITOR'S CHOICE 'It's one of very few discs of this repertoire I've been happy to play in its entirety, and then several times since. This is in part a tribute to Gombert … but also to The Brabant Ensemble and Stephen Rice … by encouraging an unusually individual and carefully balanced vocal response, he avoids the pitfalls of relentless consistency and arid elision … there is a welcome and (in this music) novel belief in the power of voices as voices … try the sopranos halfway through Hortus conclusus es for erotic Mariolatry at its most disconcertingly sensual. Arise, make haste, as they sing, and hear this music' (Gramophone)'… The sheer quality of his music. These 10 motets are notable for their richly glowing sonorities, their disciplined counterpoints, their intensity of expression and, most of all, their careful tailoring of music to text. There's the darkly erotic intensity of Hortus conclusus es, the angst-ridden, pentitential Tribulatio et angustia … The singing is meticulously balanced and blended, Stephen Rice shaping and pacing each work with exquisite judgement' (Sunday Times)'The Brabant Ensemble's exploration of the "forgotten generation" of composers between Josquin and Palestrina is reviving an abundance of unwarrantedly neglected sacred polyphony. Judging by this splendid selection of motets, Gombert's neglect is particularly flagrant. In penitential pieces, such as Aspice Domine and Tribulatio et angustia, his lavish use of dissonance within a smooth-flowing yet intricately imitative style creates an atmosphere of almost unbearably intense and bitter anguish, whether contemplating a city laid waste or beseeching rescue from a foetid quagmire … These shapely and well-paced performances do full justice to Gombert's outstanding talent' (The Daily Telegraph)
