Collection: World Music Subcollection: Voices and OrchestraThe Japanese composer Toshio Hosokawa, born 1955, about his work: "European art says: Time should not pass. As in the cathedrals, which stand for eternity. Japanese art stays abreast of the times and says: transience is beautiful. A sound emerges from silence, it lives to return to silence." (T.H.)

Collection: Orchestral Works Subcollection: OrchestreSiddhartha: Inspired by the short story Siddhartha (1922) by Hermann Hesse, this work by Claude Vivier was commissioned by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation hut could not, for various reasons, be premiered as scheduled in 1976 by the National Youth Orchestra of Canada under the direction of Marius Constant. The Canadian conductor and composer Walter Boudreau, who conducted the first performance in I986, has supplied the following commentary on the work. “Siddhartha probably represents the most revealing musical testament of Claude Vivier‘s thought and, from a formal point of view, it is also his most successfiil work. lt is direct, perfectly sculpted music that begins with a simple melody and broadens marvellously into a fantastic galaxy of ideas and emotions. “It is very sensitive music as well. The composer listens intently to his creative self and communicates his total being to us with disarming simplicity. “Finally, it is self-reflective music that feeds on its own substance in order to expand. Siddhartha is a living organism, a kind of cosmic child haunted by the idea of death and the infinite.“ (Jaco Mijnheer)

Collection: Organ Collection Subcollection: OrganThe foundation of the work is a constant layer of multi-channel electronics, which Mitterer has put together from his collection, snippets of older works, like KA and the Pavian, or networds 1-5, or from solo recordings from collaborative projects with Wolfgang Reisinger, Reinhardt Winkler, the Callboys and others. One thing unites them all: they all were created as free improvisations, not on the computer, not generated, not notated, intact results of the direct union of person and instrument.

The five orchestral works on this CD communicate phenomenal colors and the intense sensuousness of mysterious formal progressions. Silence, shadows, absence: it is above all the darker neighborhoods of the human soul that captivate Sánchez-Verdú’s interest. Exploring marginal realms which, in their beauty and refinement of tone, contain both the brilliant light of Spain’s south and utter darkness: this is the art of composer José M. Sánchez-Verdú.

Collection: Chamber Music Subcollection: Chamber EnsembleSalvatore Sciarrino, probably Italy's most important living composer, accepted a commission from the Italian state broadcaster RAI to compose the music for a 100-part TV series of the Divina Commedia. At the same time, he also created an orchestral version for the concert hall: Sui poemi concentrici for Soloists and Orchestra. The duration shrank to only a tenth of the original 15 hours, but the size of the forces remained the same, with the exception of the choir. |
