Multi-instrumentalist and composer Al Di Meola has revealed that he’ll release a new studio album in early 2018. It’s titled Opus and is set to arrive on February 23 via earMUSIC after Meola recently signed a new deal with the label.

Fusion guitar master Al Di Meola has announced the release of his new album, titled "Morocco Fantasia" (January 27, 2017). "Morocco Fantasia" is a live recording of Al Di Meola’s concert in 2009 at the Mawazine Festival in Rabat, Morocco. The lineup includes Al Di Meola on guitar, Peo Alfonsi on 2nd guitar, Fausto Beccalossie on accordion, Gumbo Ortiz on percussion, Victor Miranda on bass, Peter Kaszas on drums. Also featured are special guests from Morocco: Said Chraibi on ud, Abdellah Meri on violin, and Tari Ben Ali on percussion.

This is Club des Belugas' 8th studio album on ChinChin Records. With international outstanding vocalists: Benda Boykin (USA), Anna.luca (Sweden), Lene Riebau (Denmark), Veronika Harcsa (Hungary), Jean Honeymoon (Scotland) and Hélène Vogelsinger (France).

Разноплановый и чувственный альбом, в котором певица снова сотрудничает с джазовым трубачом Паоло Фресу в нескольких прекрасных композициях.

Релиз содержит кавера на любимые для певицы композиции итальянских (Paoli con Sassi, Tenco) и французских авторов (Aznavour, Becaud), и даже "Yesterday" от Beatles.

Совместный альбом итальянской певицы Ornella Vanoni с певцом, поэтом, автором песен Vinicius De Moraes и гитаристом Toquinho. В альбом вошли несколько бразильских песен bossa nova, написанных одними из самых больших имен в бразильской музыке, таких как Antônio Carlos Jobim и Chico Buarque, исполняемые на итальянском языке.

Выступление джазовой певицы Jane Monheit записано 23 сентября 2002 года в знаменитом ресторане Rainbow Room в Нью-Йорке на 65-м этаже Rockefeller Plaza при участии оркестра под управлением Alan Broadbent, а так же музыкантов пианиста Michael Kanan, басиста Ron Carte и барабанщика Kenny Washington.

Pianist, composer and producer David Benoit started his career as musical director for singer Lainie Kazan in 1976. Over the years, he has worked with a lot of vocalists, like Patti Austin, Kenny Loggins, Kenny Rankin, Brian McKnight, or Connie Stevens. So when the time came to make a new album, he suggested to do a vocal album with all new material. The lyrics to his new songs were written by three vocalists who also have recorded several great albums over the years: Lorraine Feather, Mark Winkler, and Spencer Day. And the vocalist for the eight tracks (two are instrumemtals) are by Jane Monheit. The Latin-inflected “Barcelona Nights” (words by Lorraine Feather) starts the album elegantly and with subdued percussion. The other Feather track, “Too In Love”, is where Jane really shines, switching keys easily and letting it loose in the bridge. David also has a solid solo spot on this one.
