For his first disc, pianist Bobby Mitchell, ‘Alpha winner’ of the legendary Bruges Competition, devised a program devoted to Joseph Haydn. His interpretations, juvenile yet based on solid musicological research, reveal an unusual musical personality and an absolutely remarkable pianist. Bobby Mitchell is a perfect example of Alpha’s desire to bear witness to young artists’ talents and accompany them in their development: a way for the label to contribute to ‘early music’s’ future.

The Alpbarock group comprises 6 musicians from various backgrounds, who came together to bring new life to old melodies from the Swiss popular repertoire. The surprising program of this recording revives ballads, love songs or death dances hailing from non-written traditions. The result offers a refreshing new view of the concept of popular music. The recording was made at the Swiss National Museum, which conserves chamber organs formerly used in the wealthy farms of Toggenburg and Emmenthal between 1750 and 1850.
