Iggy Pop will be a guest performer! Lavinia Meyer, one of the leading harp players of her generation, spent four years in the making of her new album, \"Are You Still Somewhere? Her third solo album on Sony Classical, which bears her own compositions as the album title, features her own compositions as well as works by various contemporary composers, including Ryuichi Sakamoto's \"Solitude\" and post-classical favorites Lambert, Auravul Arnalds and Alexandra Strelski. The album features music performed on harp. Lavinia has always been a boundary-breaker in her life. Born in Korea but taken in by a Dutch-Austrian family at the age of two, she began playing harp and studying at the age of nine, entered the Utrecht Conservatory at 11, and performed with the orchestra at 14.To expand the possibilities of the harp instrument, he has performed orchestral and contemporary pieces on harp, commissioned new works from Philip Glass and Auravul Arnalds, and performed works by Radiohead in classical music venues. He has also experimented with elements of electronic music, jazz, theater music, and experimental rock, and his work transcending musical genres and boundaries is reflected in this album. There is something missing from the existing harp repertoire---especially when it comes to playing this instrument in the 21st century, when it comes to thinking of it as a modern instrument and an instrument of the future,\" says Lavinia. Lavinia has pioneered a new sound for the harp instrument, one that crosses genres such as pop, rock, dance, folk, and jazz. This is how I connect with the world today.\" Lavinia's own compositions also demonstrate her connection to today's society and world.Inspired by the events that occur around Lavinia and in her life, the album is a mirror, so to speak, of Lavinia's inner self and her development. Family is one of the themes, and \"Mom \u0026amp; Dad,\" a fictionalized version of Iggy Pop's narrative, is a very emotional piece. The same is true of \"Another Lonely Night,\" which deals with the increasing number of youth suicides in the Netherlands, and is a soundtrack to the image of climbing from the bottom to the top of a building. Are You Still Somewhere?\" is an album that punctuates Lavinia's change and growth as a composer and musician, and presents entirely new possibilities for the harp instrument. I've collaborated with DJs, pop and rock musicians, and jazz and world music artists. I have collaborated with DJs, pop and rock musicians, jazz and world music artists, and this harp makes it all possible. I want to prove that this instrument is not obsolete. I want to prove that it is not obsolete, that it is an ever-changing instrument that reflects our times. This album is proof of that.Sony Music Inc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Showing Me\u003cbr\u003e2.Saman\u003cbr\u003e3.Plus Tot\u003cbr\u003e4.La double vie de Veronique, film score~Les Marionnettes\u003cbr\u003e5.Are You Still Somewhere?\u003cbr\u003e6.Porcelain\u003cbr\u003e7.Another Lonely Night\u003cbr\u003e8.Stay in the Dark\u003cbr\u003e9.Born\u003cbr\u003e10.DAMnation\u003cbr\u003e11.Tony Takitani, film score~Solitude\u003cbr\u003e12.Mom \u0026amp; Dad\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sony Classical","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47874430927137,"sku":"194399460627","price":17.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/194399460627.jpg?v=1705675317","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-de\/products\/194399460627","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
