Morton Gould

Brook Benton

Windjammer, a 1958 film that recorded the voyage of Norwegian ship “Christian Radich” from Oslo to the Americas and the Caribbean, was the only film to be shot in the widescreen Cinemiracle process, which came with a seven-track stereophonic soundtrack composed

by Morton Gould. The film was a success when released, but the soundtrack was never issued and only a studio LP was made available.

Now, Sepia is proud to present the remastered soundtrack from the original tapes in stereo, together with the aforementioned studio LP!

ON CD FOR THE FIRST TIME, this CD couples Brook Benton’s 1961 release There Goes That Song Again with 1962’s Top 40 album Singing The Blues, plus four bonus tracks from Benton’s singles output.

“On her second album, pianist/keyboardist Kori Linae Carothers paints on a more dramatic canvas than on her debut CD, layering synths (mostly strings, chorals and washes) underneath her passionate piano melodies.”

Kori’s music has a presence, a brilliance that makes the notes crisper than mere background fare.

The music forms — including songs and dances — are quite contrasted, highlighting an ensemble of individual and collective behaviors as well as an ensemble of ancestral symbols, beliefs, and customs.

They sublimate the past in their evocation of moral values or they deplore and criticize today’s living conditions, full of excesses and all kinds of trouble, as well as the erosion of traditional values.

An homage to Kitaro’s lifetime reverence for nature, Final Call is the story of an epic voyage of hope that all living creatures can someday live happily in harmony.

• Kitaro is universally acknowledged as the founding architect of new age music. His various sound collaborations and resonant, multi-textured compositions truly defy the constraints of any genre. The Grammy® and Golden Globe® winner has garnered global acclaim over a long career with a signature sound and a pioneering fusion of cultures, techniques and spheres of consciousness that are truly his own.

• An homage to Kitaro’s lifetime reverence for nature, Final Call is specifically concerned about how we treat our planet. It is Kitaro’s assertion that the planet itself is crying out and warning us about potential serious consequences if we don’t address these global issues in a timely fashion, thus the album is a voyage of introspection to help discover methods to treat our planet better and put those methods into practice.

• Full servicing to all national, indie, and online retailers along with national and regional co-op advertising.

• National and regional publications will be serviced.

• Consumer print advertising will mirror publicity and editorial efforts as they unfold.

• Multi-tiered campaign targeting NPR, nationally syndicated and commercial specialty programs, CMJ & NAR reporting stations, selected AAA stations, satellite providers, webcasters, and regional public broadcasters.

Additionally, Internet radio and Podcasters will be serviced.

• An aggressive online marketing strategy will be implemented to spread awareness.

In his own words, Kitaro describes his new musical work: “I have always felt we all must respect the providence of the Universe.

Unfortunately, through the course of time and the growth of civilization, many living creatures that we now know will become extinct ... This album is the story of an epic voyage ... A voyage of hope that all living creatures can someday live happily in harmony. The story begins from where we board for departure.”

Heart of the Piano

D

U.S. ORDERS ONLY

“Geoffrey Keezer’s first solo release, Heart of the Piano, turns the spotlight on a onetime musical prodigy who backed Art Blakey in the Jazz Messengers at just 18 years old. Including a blend of originals and covers that cheerfully nod toward mainstream pop with songs by KT Tunstall, Alanis Morissette, and even recent Rock Hall of Fame inductee Rush, the record highlights Keezer’s pigeonhole-resisting talents.” — LA TIMES

For the Love of Abbey

D

U.S. ORDERS ONLY

“A number of impassioned takes on [Abbey Lincoln’s] later songbook, including a darkly dramatic run-through of ‘Down Here Below’ and ‘Throw It Away,’ which tiptoes out of an insistent push from Cary’s left hand into a full-throttle strut and back again. A reverent take on Duke Ellington’s ‘Melancholia’ underscores the album’s inward-looking themes, which capably conjure a voice that reached beyond words.”

“Korean vocalist Youn Sun Nah gives vocal jazz a whole new color …

From the very first notes, Lento combines Nah’s unique vocal qualities and her ability to connect with an audience. The 11 songs draw on jazz, chanson, pop, and folk music and allow her singing style, which finds its expressive power in quiet, slow moments, to come forward with precise phrasing and intonation at any tempo.”

“Some would argue, on the strength of the half dozen records that document the [Miles Davis Quintet’s] performances on this short tour, that this represents another of Davis’ great quintets, and certainly Coltrane fans will find a great deal to savor here, closer in style to what he would soon do on his own than to earlier work with Miles.’”
