{"product_id":"4988031505618","title":"Tigran Hamasian Atmospheres (SHM-CD) (2CD) Japan Music CD","description":"Product Description\nContents Introduction [July Pre-order] [SHM-CD] [Semi-New Release \/ Encore Press] [This year marks the 55th anniversary of ECM's founding!] Founded in 1969 in Munich, Germany by the unparalleled charismatic producer Manfred Eicher, ECM (short for \"Edition of Contemporary Music\") is one of Europe's leading jazz labels. The label's founding concept was \"music that is the next most beautiful thing after silence.\" Its transparent sound, clear tone, and sophisticated, beautiful jacket designs set it apart from other labels and have captivated many fans around the world. It has produced numerous jazz masterpieces such as Keith Jarrett's \"The K?ln Concert\" (1975), Chick Corea's \"Return to Forever\" (1972), and Pat Metheny's \"Bright Size Life\" (1976). In 1984, it expanded its genres and entered the classical music world. ECM has launched the \"ECM New Series,\" which focuses on contemporary music, and has released new works by Arvo P?rt, Gidon Kremer, Heinz Holliger, and others. Eicher, who turned 80 last year, continues to record more than 20 new albums a year, making it one of the most active labels in the pursuit of music. In conjunction with the release of the new series \"ECM Revisits,\" commemorating the 55th anniversary of ECM's founding, the \"ECM in the 21st Century\" series, originally released in 2022, has been repressed. This series introduces the current state of ECM, focusing on artists who are currently at the forefront of the music scene. This is the second ECM release from 2016, in which the Armenian prodigy pianist Tigran Hamasyan plays Armenian themes with Norwegian musicians. Tigran explores Armenian music with leading Norwegian musicians who have participated in many ECM works. Tigran is at the heart of the sound, bringing in modes that transform ancient folk songs through Komitas' composition, with the members' inspirations added in. The four players are at the peak of their creativity, freely exploring Armenian themes and spontaneously forming atmospheric soundscapes. \u003cpersonnel\u003e Tigran Hamasyan (p) Arve Henriksen (tp) Ivind Aalsett (g) Jan Ban (samples, live sampling) Recorded June 3-5, 2014 at Auditorio Stelio Moro, Lugano, Switzerland Media reviews etc. Armenian prodigy pianist Tigran Hamasyan plays Armenian themes with Norwegian musicians in his second ECM release of 2016.
