Arditti Quartet/ S.o. Des Bayerischen Rundfunks |
 | | Description: | Iv 13 (miniaturen)/Iv 15 (himmelfahrt)/Woher...Wohin by Mark Andre, released 4 June 2021.
This version of Iv 13 (miniaturen)/Iv 15 (himmelfahrt)/Woher...Wohin comes as a 1xCD. - ARDITTI QUARTET/S.O. DES BAYERISCHEN RUNDFUNKSThe German-French composer Mark Andre (*1964) is one of the most important representatives of New Music. His twelve "Miniatures" for string quartet were composed in 2014/17 as a commission from the Arditti Quartet, Bavarian Radio's "musica viva", the Festival d'Automne à Paris and the ProQuartet-CEMC, funded by the Ernst von Siemens Music Foundation. Andre created his organ work "Himmelfahrt" (Ascension), funded by the Siemens Music Foundation, in 2018 on behalf of the Evangelical Church in Germany. The orchestral work "woher... wohin" was written between 2015 and 2017 as a composition commission by BR's "musica viva" in conjunction with the Happy New Ears prize for composition from the Hans and Gertrud Zender Foundation. The live recordings of all three works are now being released in the album edition of Bavarian Radio's "musica viva" concert series on BR-KLASSIK. The album edition of the Bavarian Radio concert series "musica viva", which began in 2000, has been continued since autumn 2020 together with BR-KLASSIK. On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of "musica viva" (the concert series was founded by Karl Amadeus Hartmann in 1945), recordings with works by the contemporary composer Rebecca Saunders (*1967) and the composer Enno Poppe (*1969) appeared as first releases in October 2020. The edition is now being continued with works by Mark Andre (*1964). All the recordings feature live recordings made at "musica viva" concerts with the Bavarian Radio Chorus, the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, and renowned soloists.total playing time 66:56

CD is packaged in a standard plastic clear-tray jewel case along with back inlay card (printed on both sides) and a 36-pages (stapled) cover-sleeve booklet, notes in German and English. Booklet notes include an interview by Michael Zwenzner in conversation with Mark Andre and Stephan Heuberger: "The Elevation of the Body in Sound."This CD brings together contemporary works that explore the great existential question suggested in the title: "where from... where to." With its combination of "Miniaturen (iv13)" and "Himmelfahrt (iv15)," the recording offers a journey through finely sculpted sound worlds and intense orchestral textures. Listeners encounter a program that alternates between concentrated, small-scale musical moments and expansive, visionary passages that evoke ascent, transition and transformation. The interplay of intimate chamber structures and larger symphonic thinking creates a tension-filled arc that rewards focused listening and repeated encounters with the music.
At the center of the recording is the collaboration between the Arditti Quartet, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra (BRSO) and conductor-composer Matthias Pintscher. The Arditti Quartet is internationally renowned as one of the leading ensembles for contemporary music, with a long history of close work with living composers and countless premieres of important new works. Their precise, fearless playing and their ability to illuminate complex scores make them ideal interpreters of the intricate textures and subtle color shifts found in these "Miniaturen." In contrast, the BRSO contributes its trademark orchestral brilliance and transparency, bringing "Himmelfahrt" to life with a wide dynamic range and finely balanced instrumental detail.
Matthias Pintscher, both as composer and conductor, has established himself as a key figure in contemporary orchestral and ensemble music. His writing is known for its refined timbres, carefully shaped gestures and a sense of suspended time, all of which are clearly audible in the works on this CD. Under his own direction, the music gains an especially coherent and authentic profile, with every nuance and every silence charged with meaning. The program as a whole offers a representative insight into the sound aesthetics of today's advanced European art music, without ever losing its emotional directness.
The label BR-Klassik, founded by Bayerischer Rundfunk, stands for high-quality classical and contemporary music productions drawn from the broadcaster's rich concert and studio activities. BR-Klassik is closely associated with first-class ensembles such as the BRSO and the Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks, and is known for its audiophile sound, carefully curated repertoire and elaborate booklet material. With this release, BR-Klassik once again underlines its role as an important mediator of cutting-edge musical creation, documenting striking performances and making them accessible to an international audience. |  | | No. of tracks: |
