Nada-Ananda
Simon Thacker and The Nava Rasa Ensemble is a nine piece virtuoso ensemble innovating on the meeting of Asian and Western cultures. Nada Ananda features the world première recordings of major guitar led works by Shirish Korde, an Indian composer who has forged a compelling and distinctive voice in the West with his native music as a basis, and Nigel Osborne, a great Western composer profoundly influenced by Indian music, for an all star nine piece instrumental ensemble made up of leading performers from both cultures. Acclaimed as 'a mesmerising melding of old and new, Indian and Western' (The Classical Review) and 'a bold and highly successful project that fuses imaginative improvisation and virtuosity within a compelling sequence' (The List), The Nava Rasa Ensemble's Nada-Ananda album release has been acclaimed across the world and features nine musicians of the highest calibre representing three continents: Simon Thacker on guitar, Carnatic (South Indian) violinist Jyotsna Srikanth, Hindustani (North Indian) tabla master Sarvar Sabri, Scotland's leading string quartet the Edinburgh Quartet, Brazilian bass dynamo Mario Caribé and renowned multi-percussionist Iain Sandilands. Shirish's Nada Ananda ['the joy of sound'] concerto for guitar and chamber ensemble, is in three movements. The first movement is in the style of a North Indian Alap and the guitar writing the explores the expressive possibilities and colours of the instrument, combining the ornamentations and figurations of the sitar with the timbre of the classical guitar. The first and the second movement are based on the raga Lalit which, according to Indian music theory, is generally played at daybreak. The third movement, Joy, sees extended cadenzas for the guitar, Indian violin and tabla lead to an explosive climax for the whole ensemble. Nigel's The Birth of Naciketas for guitar concertante is based on an episode in the Upanishads where Naciketa's mother dies in childbirth and his father makes a bargain with Death to save his son's life. The work is based on the ten thaats, or scale patterns, which are considered by many to have been the forerunners of the raags of Indian classical music. The piece's ten sections correspond to the tenthaats in a 24-hour cycle related to the times of day associated with the scale patterns. These ten sections fall into five main movements. The Birth of Naciketas continues Nigel's search for an Indian classical modernism. What the critics said: Classical Music Sentinel 'The musicianship on this recording is quite remarkable. Guitarist Simon Thacker transcends the instrument and persuades it to produce music loaded with subtle nuances and character... A veritable melting pot of styles and influences that have truly merged into one.' The List 'Shirish Korde's Nada-Ananda concerto allows classical guitarist Simon Thacker ...to show just how invigorating music can be when it draws it's sensibilities from a host of styles, releasing it from the inhibitions of genre pigeon-holing.' Music Web International 'I was deeply impressed by this disc - not just by the undeniably high standard of musicianship throughout, but also by the fascinating, accessible and interesting compositions, which demonstrate that successful collaboration between Eastern and Western music is, indeed, possible.' The Classical Review 'What particularly impresses is the sheer cohesion of the playing, with Thacker proving an acutely stylish and sensitive fulcrum for an often mesmerising melding of old and new, Indian and Western.' Classical Music Magazine 'Here's an east-west inversion: gentle spirituality from Nigel Osborne's work for 'guitar concertante', and jazz with real swing in Shirish Korde's concerto, where the virtuosity of Thacker is matched by sizzling sounds from Jyotsna Srikanth's Indian violin and Sarvar Sabri's tabla playing'. The Guardian 'The third movement, in particular, is an exuberant virtuoso display of rhythmic complexity. Nada Ananda means joy of sound, an idea Korde captured in his music.' Hi-arts 'The extraordinary range of cultural influences, musical forms and emotional states in the selected works were beautifully fluid and seamlessly communicated by Thacker and his fellow musicians.' Gendai Guitar Japan 'An ambitious project which has proven very successful because of the musicianship and devotion of Simon Thacker....Just looking at all these musicians on stage with their instruments one experienced a heightened sense of anticipation, which was fulfilled in performance.' The Scotsman 'Take one eclectically minded classical guitarist from East Lothian, grant him charge of an ensemble comprising two Indian virtuosi on violin and tabla drums, one of Scotland's leading string quartets, a Scottish-based Brazilian jazz bassist and a cross-genre percussionist and... The result is music of sinuous beauty.' Musical Pointers 'This is captivating and highly recommended to our readers. Simon Thacker is a fine guitarist who has been devoting himself to exploring meetings of Indian and Western cultures with an outstanding intercultural ensemble.' Inside World Music 'Simon Thacker, is a stunning, Scottish performer of Western, European, and South Asian musical styles.....The mix of classical and Indian music is brilliant, moving, and creative.' Sunday Herald 'Simon Thacker is a musician who has always seen his instrument as international and his classical training as the portal to expressing a whole world of music. His Camerata Ritmata group explores jazz, Spanish and Brazilian influences, among others, and with the Nava Rasa Ensemble - featuring string quartet alongside Indian masters, bass and percussion - he goes right to the heart of Indian music' Songlines Magazine 'The virtuosity of the musicians on display here is not in question, and their ability to play as an ensemble is most impressive.'- Shop: odax

Twist of Fate
TEDDY JUDGE BAND FEATURED IN NEW RELEASE OF MOVIE CULT CLASSIC The Teddy Judge Band's riveting song "Corporate Culture," is heard in it's entirety in the 2011 release of the cult classic "Chain Gang Massacre." 'Corporate Culture," is a compellingly succinct indictment of the anti-life priorities that pervade our consumer society. Fans of Pink Floyd's "We Don't Need No Education" will find this track particularly irresistible. With it's hypnotic lyrics & it's chant-like melody, this song burned itself into my brain. Be forewarned. Once heard, "Corporate Culture" will echo throughout your cranium & leave a bittersweet aftertaste. I love it.' says Bob Leone, National Projects Director, Songwriters Hall of Fame (1988-2006). Fans will recognize this hard-driving song as a new direction for a band that made it's name in the rock/pop and county genres. Songwriters Teddy Judge and Richard Henze once more show their amazing versatility. 'Corporate Culture' is included on the 'Twist of Fate' CD (available right here at cdbaby) and "Chain Gang Massacre" is available directly from OLDIES. Teddy Judge has been part of the professional music scene since his teen years growing up in the metropolitan New York area. Composing since the age of 15 with an inspired and unique take on love, loneliness and hope, Teddy has captured the imagination of a diverse array of fans, having played over 2,500 gigs across America. His exceptional songwriting education began with years of one-on-one mentoring by Michael Brown, of The Left Banke, who wrote the hit 'Walk Away Rene.' Teddy lived in a 24/7 musical environment, a virtual "songwriting university" where he wrote his first 100 songs, was instructed to throw them away, and then begin the process of creating a diverse and exciting catalogue which now includes over 300 songs spanning country, pop and rock genres. Teddy was a member of The Vandals, The Forerunners and Pegasus. Over the years he has played with Bruce Springsteen and with The Left Banke and his performance experience includes opening for such bands as Aerosmith, Twisted Sister and The Soul Survivors. Currently Teddy fronts his own Teddy Judge Band for live performances and recording. The band also features his co-writer Richard Henze on lead guitar and Robert Palino on drums with Sandy Jacobs (vocals/saxophone) and Rave Tesar (keyboards) as auxiliary members. His prior releases include the If CD containing 14 new songs, which follows: So Easy (2005), This World (2001), Volume 1 (2000) and Take Time (1999).- Shop: odax
