ORLANDO, FL, UNITED STATES, August 11, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Cosplay Records® proudly presents the latest release from the Robert Kerr Ensemble: "Songs Beyond the Mirror" - Music from the Disney Songbook. This imaginative and emotionally rich album, set to debut worldwide on August 22, 2025, reimagines iconic Disney melodies with the Ensemble’s signature artistry, blending classical and contemporary styles into a lush cinematic soundscape.— Ms. Meka Nism, 2025 GRAMMY® Nominee
From haunting lullabies to sweeping instrumental renditions, "Songs Beyond the Mirror" invites listeners on a nostalgic yet fresh journey through beloved Disney classics. Featuring Kerr’s exclusively arranged selections from animated treasures across generations, the album is both a tribute to the magic of Disney music and a bold artistic statement in its own right. As a special treat, they invited their friend, Armen Ksajikian, to provide the cello in “The Mandalorian” and “Pirates of The Caribbean” medley. Ksajikian is the featured cellist on those original film and television soundtracks recorded in Hollywood.
“Cosplay Records is delighted to work with Robert Kerr to create his debut album!” says Producer Michelle Jones (artist and producer of GRAMMY®-nominated projects). “His string quartet arrangements of favorite Disney songs are incredibly complicated as they challenge the finest classically trained musicians. It is this complexity of music intertwined with the beautiful, recognizable melodies that make the listener want to hear them again and again. Until this album, no one has been able to hear these arrangements outside of private events where Kerr has performed.”
An album release party is scheduled on Friday, August 22nd at 6:00 p.m. at Aloft Orlando Downtown. The Ensemble will perform "Songs Beyond the Mirror" live, in its entirety at this event, with a meet and greet afterwards. Physical copies of the album will be available onsite for purchase. Tickets for this family-friendly event are free with RSVP at the link at the artist’s website.
