Chet Baker is an icon and needs no introduction! He is currently one of the best known and best selling Jazz artist in the world. Chet Baker performs & sings SWIMMING by MOONLIGHT is a new Chet Baker album that draws from previously unreleased material recorded near the end of his life. From 1986-1987, Chet traveled and worked with the photographer and filmmaker Bruce Weber on a project that would become their Oscar-nominated documentary "Let's Get Lost"[1988]. During this period, Chet performed in Cannes, France and recorded sessions at Studio Davout in Paris and Sage and Sound Studio in Hollywood. Long rumored to exist, this will likely be the last new, unreleased Chet Baker music to ever be released. It has been in Bruce Weber's archive for nearly 40 years. Inspired for release by the film - which celebrated it's 35th anniversary last year - SWIMMING by MOONLIGHT is a two-record soundtrack album curated by Bruce Weber and produced by Chet collaborator John Leftwich that compiles music, dialogue and live concert recordings. Slow Down Sounds is thrilled and honored to officially license this music from Little Bear, Inc and release it to the world!

When Charlie Byrd toured South America in 1961, bossa nova - a melding of Brazilian samba rhythms with the harmonic structures and the cool sound of West Coast jazz - was booming.

Chopin is reserved, visionary and mysterious," says Beatrice Rana. "There are many layers to his music. It's pleasing to the ear and sincere in it's communication, but the deeper you go, the more you find..." For this album, Rana pairs Chopin's 12 op 25 etudes with his four scherzi, focusing on two musical genres that the composer, combining intellect and imagination, transformed into something new. "It was Chopin who invented the 'concert study'," explains Rana. "To me, the etudes seem implicitly connected, joined by a single line of expression, as if they are taking you on a journey. The scherzi are evocative pieces, full of contrasts... They represent three distinct stages of Chopin's life and creativity and it is easy to read stories into them." When Beatrice Rana played the op 25 etudes for her New York recital debut in 2019, the New York Times wrote: "If you can play Chopin's etudes comfortably, you can probably play anything written for the piano... and the best performances convey their musical riches. In that regard, Beatrice Rana set a new standard... She didn't just surmount the technical challenges; she made the pieces sound as poetic and colorful as anything Chopin ever wrote.

Bruckner was working on the Ninth Symphony until the day he died. He left a stark and magnificent torso that marks the end of the 19th-century symphony - but he also left fragments and sketches for a magnificent finale that would cap his life's work. In the latest realisation of a completion that has taken over 20 years, Bruckner's finale crowns his musical last will and testament with an intense and visionary splendour. 'Everything that is strange about this finale is 100% Bruckner,' remarks Sir Simon Rattle. 'And one can see the terror and the fear and the passion which he was going through in his life at that time.'
