Sonatinas By Belgian Composers (LP)
Three compositions from the early 1960's mixing avant-garde techniques and sacred tradition released in 1962 on Cantate.
Tuscany
*2026 Repress* Los Angeles based pianist, producer, and songwriter John Carroll Kirby traveled to Pietrasanta, Italy in the summer of 2018 on a self-imposed writing trip. During his stay he composed Tuscany, a two side-long solo piano exploration of this particular geographical envelope, a place where nature is shaped into form. Kirby would cycle 12 kilometers each day to Cascata di Malbacco, a waterfall with jade pools and silver stone, and the inspiration for Side A of Tuscany. His own Cascata…
Nighthawks
*300 copies limited edition* A sublime convergence of Japanese piano poetry and Swiss sonic craftsmanship. The visionary collaboration between Composer Azumi Okamura and sound designer Andrea Esperti (known for his work with ambient legend Takashi Kokubo). Echoes of dreams from an imaginary world, forgotten memories rising and fading again.
A cinematic journey rich with emotion, emerging from Edward Hopper's urban solitude, meeting the glow of gentle, simple melodies, wrapped in environmental mu…
Perseverantia
On Perseverantia, Vadim Neselovskyi turns his lyric, classically infused jazz language into a meditation on endurance, carving spacious, song‑like structures where fragile melodies, sudden storms and long silences feel like different faces of the same stubborn hope.
Piano Studies
*75 copies limited edition* Piano Studies is a set of pieces recorded on a salvaged piano body at Elektronmusikstudion (EMS) in Stockholm. Using free-floating metal preparations and various mallets, these works use this alternative hammer escapement mechanism to coax a particular inharmonic resonance from its skeleton frame.
Opus
In the autumn of 2022, knowing his time was running out, Ryuichi Sakamoto summoned every ounce of his remaining strength to give us one last, definitive performance. Opus is that performance - a solo piano concert capturing one of the world's greatest musicians in his most vulnerable and transcendent moment. Curated and sequenced by Sakamoto himself, the twenty pieces wordlessly tell the story of his life and his vast body of work. The selection spans his entire career: from his pop-star period …
Satie
** 2026 Stock ** Satie is the point where Erik Satie’s so‑called “furniture music” stops being background and becomes a way of listening to the world. In these recordings, Aldo Ciccolini approaches Satie not as a quirky footnote to Debussy and Ravel but as a composer who quietly rewired 20th‑century music from the inside. The repertoire typically centres on the iconic cycles - Trois Gymnopédies, Trois Gnossiennes and companion pieces like the Nocturnes and Trois morceaux en forme de poire - work…

Trios (6CD Box)
In the final decade of his life, Morton Feldman turned his attention to the trio format with an intensity that would yield some of the most profound and uncompromising music of the twentieth century. Between 1978 and 1984, he composed three monumental works for flute, piano and percussion that together constitute an immense meditation on time, memory and the irreducible strangeness of sound itself. This landmark 6CD box set from Another Timbre presents all three pieces — totalling six and a half…
Sans Retour
The piano recital/album sans retour forms the concluding part of Croene's 'Trilogy of Hopelessness' (Cortizona). Conceived as a single, Beethovenian composition, Croene once again demonstrates the wide range of sound palettes a piano can produce. The common thread is a melody based on the 'Dies Irae', which takes six different forms to embody the in memoriam concept.
Changes in Air
In May, composer, musician, and producer Kara-Lis Coverdale released her first new album in eight years, From Where You Came. It was followed by her second album of 2025, A Series of Actions in a Sphere of Forever, in September. Today, Coverdale details her third full-length release of the year, Changes In Air, out 21 November via Smalltown Supersound, and unveils its lead single ‘Curve Traces of Held Space’. Changes In Air is a work for electric organ, modular synthesis, and piano in five secti…
Helmut Lachenmann Complete Piano Works
*The only edition ever released that has all his piano works collected* The piano has been with Lachenmann almost throughout his composing life of seven decades. Yet the instrument is by no means always the same. Lachenmann’s determination has been to go on finding new possibilities – almost a new voice for the piano in every piece, a voice with which it can speak that piece, as it has not spoken before. Perhaps the Schubert variations of 1956 could be understood as a farewell to traditional pia…
Chopin & Lazkano: Préludes
This double portrait places Chopin’s beloved Préludes in nimble counterpoint with new ensemble works from Ramon Lazkano, translated by Maroussia Gentet and Ensemble Cairn under Guillaume Bourgogne. The result is both homage and reinvention, unlocking resonances between eras through lyric immediacy and textural experiment.
The Dissolute Society Comprised of All Sorts
Isabella Gellis’s The Dissolute Society Comprised of All Sorts is a formidable debut for solo piano, performed by Joseph Havlat. Drawing inspiration from Biber’s baroque suite and cannibalizing its gestures, Gellis interweaves the surreal, the silly, and the tactile, forming a musical tapestry that refracts historical tradition through a vividly modern, sometimes absurd lens.
Composer, alone
Composer, alone by Jürg Frey (performed by Reinier van Houdt) is a luminous retrospective stretching across three discs and 35 years. Twelve solo piano pieces—fragile yet substantial—trace Frey's evolution, distilling time and silence into crystalline musical objects. Van Houdt’s touch brings warmth and clarity, illuminating the invisible architecture within Frey’s sensitive landscapes.
