Story telling projects

COBRA RECORDS is always looking for remarkable projects performed by young talent and/or internationally well known musicians and special ensembles, domestically and abroad. Enthusiasm, ambition, open-minded, sense of quality, cooperation and flexibility are our keywords. Remarkable can be defined as groundbreaking, innovative, but also sublime performance of the โ€œmain repe

rtoireโ€. Looking for everyoneโ€™s highest quality we create all conditions to achieve a special production. This all starts with discussing repertoire, planning, choosing acoustical location. Each musician gets complete artistic freedom and all the support to achieve highest expression. Audiophile quality

All productions are recorded in native DSD256, the highest possible audio quality. These recordings are made in three different styles: Stereo, Surround and Binaural.

โ€œIn general, Sato's agogic 'tricks', his coloring and the general phrasing are extremely expressive, but never stray too far from the musical text, rather breathing individual life into it. In the dreamlike, confident interaction with Shuann Chai the seemingly impossible is achieved: Beethoven's incredible compositional effort and the work structures, which are refined down to the last detail, are filled with the freedom of improvisation. The captivating sound with its tangible spatiality does the rest to round off the overall impression.โ€

Congrats to Shunske Sato and Shuann Chai ๐Ÿคฉ

โ€œHaving started with this recording by wondering how on earth to write about performances that diverge in many ways from expected convention, Iโ€™ve embarked on a learning curve and now appreciate and admire them for their individuality and wealth of personality.โ€

โ€œWhat you get here is a set of superbly recorded works, with an excellent balance between the fortepiano and violin. Beethoven throws his melodic invention liberally between each instrument, and with plenty of positive energy in articulation and dynamic give and take there is an equality of status between each instrument in these performances that is really stimulating.โ€
