MY OWN

"MY OWN" is a captivating experimental short documentary music video that follows the journey of a young refugee who leaves his life and family behind to seek refuge in Venice, Italy. This poignant narrative exposes the cold reality many immigrants and refugees from non-white countries face in Europe, while also revealing how our protagonist finds solace in a new community. The unique soundtrack, crafted entirely from the sounds of his surroundings—such as cooking noises, waves, and city ambiance—adds an authentic layer to this compelling story. "MY OWN" offers a fresh and immersive take on the resilience of the human spirit.

Rigoletto

To elevate a jester to a tragic stature comparable to a Macbeth or a Lear is no easy feat. The dramatic essence of Shakespeare runs in the veins of this Rigoletto, although the story is based on the controversial Le roi s’amuse by Victor Hugo. While the play was prohibited in France for more than fifty years, Verdi himself fought with the censors who initially prevented the publication of his opera. Multi-faceted, perhaps more than any other opera by Verdi - tender, cruel, interspersed with remarkable strokes of black humour -, Rigoletto is also a heart-wrenching study about the love between a parent and a child. Given the helplessness of a woman in the face of a group of men, Teatro Real’s production, which is directed by Miguel del Arco, also considers society's concept of masculinity. Nicola Luisotti conducts some of the great voices of our day, including Javier Camarena, Ludovic Tézier, Marina Viotti and Adela Zaharia.

A Life in Rhythm: The Ray Conniff Story

Jonathan McHugh’s documentary A Life in Rhythm: The Ray Conniff Story chronicles the life and legacy of Ray Conniff. From his beginnings as a trombonist/arranger during the heyday of swing working with Bunny Berigan, Bob Crosby and Artie Shaw to his acclaim as the leader of his own orchestra and chorus, Grammy winner Ray Conniff is among the few musicians to have had a successful career that spanned 65 years. He recorded over 100 studio albums, selling over 70 million copies, and created the “Ray Conniff Sound” by being the first to use voices to double as instruments on his recordings. Through personal interviews and vibrant performances, this is a heartfelt tribute to an international musical legend whose melodies continue to inspire.

With its release, the album swiftly climbed various charts, securing an impressive No. 18 spot on the fiercely competitive German album charts. But the journey didn’t end there. Embarking on a sprawling European tour across eight countries, RPWL treated fans to electrifying performances in packed venues, many of which were sold out well in advance. As is evident on True Live Crime, Crime Scene naturally took center stage. The band delivered the album in its entirety, peppered with select gems from their extensive catalog dating back to 1997. Accompanied by a mesmerizing light show and meticulously crafted video clips, RPWL transformed each performance into a multisensory experience. Guitarist Kalle Wallner reflects, “With RPWL, the live versions often take on a life of their own. We like to stretch our legs and jam on stage.”
