Russell Watson
- Return of The Voice
Live at The Royal Albert Hall Russell Watson, Capital Voices, National Symphony Orchestra LACEDVD | LACE468 | DVD
BRAND NEW RUSSELL WATSON DVD! The spotlight was very much on the man with one of the most sensational singing voices that the classical world has ever known. But he was not alone; filling the enormous stage with him was the forty-eight piece National Symphony Orchestra, the assured Capital Voices and an eighty- strong backing choir. Russell’s faultless performance starts with a powerful rendition of ‘Somewhere’ and ‘Ave Maria’ and is followed by a string of incredible numbers such as ‘Funiculi Funicula’ and ‘Volare’ and closes with ‘Nessun Dorma’. One of the highlights of the wonderful set comes when Russell is joined by classical crossover newcomer Mary-Jess for a Phantom Of The Opera medley, and an amazing duet of ‘The Prayer’.

Australian composer and artist. Luxembourg-born Australian composer Georges Lentz’s 60-minute solo guitar work Ingwe (an Aboriginal word meaning 'night') is a truly extraordinary achievement. Here, heavy metal meets musical metaphysics, as shrieking amplified sound clashes with the spirituality of Indigenous Australian cultures. Conceived as part of an open-ended cycle of compositions with the religiously inspired title Caeli enarrant... (The Heavens are Telling, Psalm XIX), it is at once a nod to guitar heroes such as Jimi Hendrix, and a monumental meditation on the human condition, the bleak vastness of the Australian desert and the awe-inspiring radiance of its night skies.

Zane Banks, one of the most versatile guitarists of his generation, has performed in Europe, Asia and in his native Australia. From 2005-2009, Zane worked extensively with composer Georges Lentz as a technical assistant during the time Mr Lentz was composing Ingwe, a unique hour-long work for solo electric guitar. Zane gave the world premiere of this composition at the Rainy Days Festival for Contemporary Art Music in Luxembourg in 2007. He has also edited and added technical annotations to the Ingwe score which is to be published by Universal Edition. The Naxos world premiere recording of Ingwe has been submitted for an ARIA 2011 Award.
‘Ingwe eschews rock clichés…[Zane] Banks gives a masterful interpretation of this dark yet compelling work…interesting and progressive…powerful disc.’ (5 STARS Limelight)
‘What an amazing work! Not sure - is it classical, is it rock?...Very polished performance by a talented young Australian guitarist, Zane Banks…[Georges Lentz is] one of the really great composers writing today…Very highly recommended.’ (Cybermusic)
