Philippe Elan, Thérèse Steinmetz & Amstel Quartet proudly present: Manège à trois
Vinyl Release Concert:
Thursday March 7th, 20:30, Betty Asfalt Complex Amsterdam
Hot off the press! Amstel Records releases its first record on Vinyl: five Chanson Classics, on a 10’ 45 rpm Vinyl recorded and mastered by cutting-edge sound engineer Paul Pouwer, featuring gorgeous artwork by Henc Smit. And there’s quite a story behind this “Manège à trois”…:
in 2014, Philippe Elan and the Amstel Quartet released their album “Sax avec Elan” - hailed by the critics as a “revelation” and “balm for the soul”. It was no other than Dutch legend Thérèse Steinmetz who heard Philippe and the quartet during one of their promotion concerts: it inspired her to release “Amsterdam, Paris” with Philippe a year later. Now, in 2019, the circle is complete with this collaborative tour-de-force. Fun detail: still in time for this year’s Eurovision, this EP contains Luxembourg’s 1965 winner by France Galle “Poupée de cire, poupée de son”, in a flamboyant arrangement by Sylvia Maessen.
After the release date the Vinyl will be available through our webshop and select record stores. Along with the vinyl record, you'll also get a download code, with an optional choice of high-resolution audio. It will also be released digitally on all current platforms.
Get your tickets here and join us at the cozy Betty Asfalt Theater om March 7th to celebrate with us!
