Chamber Music
Subcollection: String instrumentsWolfgang Rihm's 'Music for Three Strings' is an immediately striking piece, opening with violent, barely controlled chordal attacks, which become long drones. The first three movements proceed thus, punctuated by long sections of silence. Rihm freely refers to tonal harmony without confining himself to it. The music is reminiscent of the New Viennese School before it became dogmatic in its strict adherence to atonality. The influence of early Berg is audible in the middle section (three "Canzonas") as well as recurring quotations from the late Beethoven quartets.
Much of the material requires strident playing, but also very sensitive ensemble work. For example, many of the triple forte attacks are accompanied by droning pianissimo in the other voices, which must remain audible. The Trio Recherche does a remarkable job of enacting the mania of the first section without stepping on each other's toes. Throughout the work they bring out the expressionistic fervor in Rihm's music with intelligent and supportive playing. |

Subcollection: String instrumentsIn his String Quartets Rueda exhibits, his special capacity for inextricably bringing together an array of compositional techniques and results, structure and instinctive feeling, a latent capacity for development and communication. The quartets of Jesús Rueda act as a renewal of the heartfelt consciousness to sense and feel music, something to which we have always been getting closer to. (Javier Arias Bal)
