"Remote Galaxy" by Flint Juventino Beppe is a captivating exploration of sound and philosophy, presented in a stunning high-definition audio format. Released in October 2013 under the 2L label, this album is a testament to Beppe's multi-faceted talent and his unique approach to composition. Formerly known as Fred Jonny Berg, Beppe's work on "Remote Galaxy" delves into the dualism of life, nature, and art, posing the intriguing question of whether these concepts can be expressed through pure music.
The album features nine tracks, each a masterclass in orchestration and composition, performed by the renowned Philharmonia Orchestra under the baton of Vladimir Ashkenazy. The pieces range from the evocative "Remote Galaxy Op.81" to the intricate "Flute Concerto No.2 Op.80," showcasing Beppe's versatility and depth as a composer. The recording, made in May 2012 at the Watford Colosseum, UK, is a technical marvel, captured in DXD format and available in various high-resolution formats, including vinyl and Blu-ray.
Beppe's background in composing for ballet, electroacoustic works, film soundtracks, and songs with lyrics adds a rich layer to his orchestral compositions. His previous work, "Flute Mystery," was Grammy-nominated, and "Remote Galaxy" continues his exploration of complex themes and innovative soundscapes. The album is a compelling listen, offering a profound and uncompromising musical experience that stands on its own merits.
