Some recent new releases from Challenge Records International - Double Moon Records:

AMARÉ: A musical tribute to the sea, to love, and to the ever-shifting tides of inspiration between Brazil and Europe. The title blends a maré (the tide) and amar é (to love is), capturing the album’s essence: movement, emotion, and surrender. Vocalist Céline Rudolph, pianist Henrique Gomide, and guitarist João Luís Nogueira come together in an intuitive dialogue where Brazilian rhythms and jazz improvisation meet in perfect flow.

Rebekka Bakken returns to her roots on her new album NORD (Supreme Music Group) delivering a breathtakingly authentic and emotional journey that will resonate far beyond borders.

"NORD is not an archive, it is a heartbeat. These songs have lived inside me since childhood — hymns and folk melodies in Norwegian, the sound of my mother’s voice, the echo of church walls. I didn’t want to sing them as memories. I wanted to set them on fire again. To let them move, breathe, and dance in the now — sometimes fragile as a whisper, sometimes vast and thunderous. Most of the album is in Norwegian, because that is my root, my tongue, my air. But in the middle lies My Choisest Hours. It unfolds in English, because English gave me the distance to leave the familiar behind and step into something more open. The song carries the words of the Sufi poet Rabia al-Basri, and suddenly, a new voice enters — my friend Saleh Mahfoud from Syria, singing in Arabic. The moment feels raw, hypnotic, wide like the night sky. Not a detour, but a hinge — where the album opens its arms to something larger." - Rebekka Bakken

With a voice that moves effortlessly between raw power and fragile intimacy, Rebekka Bakken has built a reputation as one of the most captivating artists of our time. Blending jazz, folk, pop and Nordic soul, she creates music that is as timeless as it is unique. She has topped the charts, thrilled audiences across Europe, and earned a devoted following for her spellbinding live performances. Critics call her voice “one of the most distinctive in Europe” – a voice that can break your heart and heal it in the very same song.

The Ninth Symphony, which Antonín Dvořák himself titled From the New World, was a huge success when it premiered on 16 December 1893 at Carnegie Hall in New York: “The newspapers say that never before has a composer enjoyed such a triumph.” However, it was by no means uncontroversial – Dvořák had been invited to the USA and given the task of creating an American national music. He therefore studied the music of the indigenous population, the descendants of slaves, and various other inhabitants, and created the symphony with all these sources in mind. Though many critics did not consider that the goal of an authentic American national music had been achieved, the work itself belongs, until today, to the most popular symphonies ever written. Much earlier, Dvořák had composed the Serenade for Wind Instruments, Violoncello and Double Bass in D minor. He was probably inspired by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Gran Partita, and the unusual instrumentation of Op. 44 – with two oboes, clarinets and bassoons, a contrabassoon, three horns, two cellos, and double basses – is a strong indication of this.

The Netherlands Radio Choir and Benjamin Goodson present The Voice of the Beloved, a powerful collection of 20th-century sacred choral works by Frank Martin, Jean-Yves Daniel-Lesur, and Olivier Messiaen. At its heart is Martin’s Mass for Double Choir, a deeply personal expression of faith composed in 1922 and kept private for decades. Its austere beauty and luminous harmonies make it one of the most moving sacred works of the last century. Daniel-Lesur’s Le Cantique des cantiques transforms the Song of Songs into a sensual and spiritual choral tapestry, weaving up to twelve voices into a radiant soundscape. Messiaen’s O sacrum convivium, a brief but transcendent motet, completes the program with shimmering reverence. Following their acclaimed 2023 release Rheinberger & Mendelssohn: Choral Works, the choir returns with a recording that reveals the sacred not only in worship, but in the raw, expressive power of the human voice.

Michael Dellaira has become one of America’s leading opera composers, receiving acclaim and awards for compelling stage works including The Leopard (Naxos 8.669052-53). Based on Elisha Kent Kane’s expedition to find the Northwest Passage in the mid-19th century, Arctic Explorations is a study on the human desire to discover what lies beyond the boundaries of our experience. The effects of global warming and the plight of the Inuit in one of the most beautiful but endangered places on earth also form part of the narrative. Available now on www.isotopemusic.com

Sofia Gubaidulina was an iconoclastic maverick whose work is synonymous with unprecedented openness and autonomy. The rarely performed R***e Music for Symphony Orchestra and Jazz Band is an eclectic, subversive masterpiece that caused a scandal at its premiere in the USSR in 1978 – the official reaction to which posed a considerable threat to Gubaidulina’s entire family. It contrasts greatly with the sensual piano concerto Introitus, heard here in the revised version created by the composer in collaboration with Alice Di Piazza. Worlds collide in Figures of Time – a work that combines chaotic effects with unifying harmony. The programme also includes the Chaconne for solo piano, with its atmospherically dense process of transformation. Stream or buy here: https://bit.ly/4oIUsZS

This album, "Throwback to Dance", explores how composers turn to dance forms to carve out new paths: predominantly court dances, folk dances but also the more ‘modern’ waltz. The album is inspired by the charming meeting between Ravel and Grieg back in 1894, and looks at Grieg’s influence on Ravel, seldom documented, as well as that on Pejacevic and Chaminade.

These vivid orchestral gems, full of rhythmic vitality, folkloric color, and lyrical charm, are central to Dvořák’s legacy, and pivotal in defining a Czech national sound.

Jodie Devos is sorely missed. Aged just thirty-five, she died on 16 June 2024. Wishing to perpetuate her memory and her art, we have decided to publish this boxed set containing all of the recordings she made for Alpha Classics over a period of ten years: six albums that bear witness to the exacting standards, sensitivity, eclecticism, and curiosity of this unusual soprano who was loved by all. Also included is a concert she gave at the Gaume Festival in August 2017; this deeply moving programme reveals another side of Jodie, notably her love of American music and song, from Gershwin to Michel Legrand. All profits from the sale of this boxed set, which includes all the texts from the original albums, will be donated to the Jodie Devos Fund, created in 2025 to perpetuate the transmission and promotion of the operatic art that she held so dear.
