Jesus Torres (born in Saragossa, 1965) is one of the key figures in a very talented generation of Spanish composers who have made a significant contribution to the further development of music in Europe. While they share neither a style nor an ideational background, they do share their point of departure: artistically speaking, they are all "grandchildren" of the great innovators of the post-war period; they came to music after the avant-garde had already gained a permanent, emphatic foothold at the academies - and begun their subsequent march into aesthetic isolation. In order to break free from this, Torres and his colleagues set off on highly individual and divergent musical paths that, viewed as a whole, still set a remarkable example. |

As though he were an architect in sound - the architect of an ongoing Revolution of the Viaduct (Paul Klee) - this composer discovers in his piano pieces something which, for a master mason, might represent discarded corner-stones: the heart of the secret. It becomes apparent that in the pieces for solo piano - themselves like a collection of cornerstones in his output - a small collection of musical gems has come into being: crystalline, glittering, and utterly lucid both in form and appearance. The guiding and enlightening code for them might read: distillation by diminution. (Wolfgang Hofer)

Olga Neuwirth’s music is full of shifts, ruptures, deformations and associative relationships. Her works build upon a various materials of sound, image and language taken from highly diverse backgrounds, which she interconnects without evening out their intrinsic characteristics. Usually marked by unpredictable transformations during which the music branches out like lush organic growth, the composition comes to reflect the heterogeneous starting materials.
These also include a special way of handling the musical instruments - the composer manipulates the tone colors, usually through untypical tuning and preparation, thus providing the groundwork for the creation of highly differentiated musical situations. This roughening of sounds cannot be taken as a mere rejection of conventional euphony. Rather, it articulates a need to capture the potential that lies dormant in these sound producers and harness it for the process of composition thus creating a means of expression based on these unusual ways of sound production in order to formulate contemporary musical figures. Although the composer always traces her vocabulary back to the process of generation that begins with the acoustics and resonance of the instruments used, the process can be understood most clearly in her chamber music instrumentation, especially in the works composed for strings.

Georges Aperghis was not the first well-known composer for musical theatre who neglected the less "spectacular" varieties of music. But unlike the "symphonic form," which Aperghis has rarely considered since his initial attempt in 1972, chamber music recurs throughout his oeuvre. As though staging a theatrical work, Aperghis plays his game in a chamber music hall with new instrumental combinations, creating a connection between the instruments and European musical tradition.
XASAX Ensemble de saxophones modulable: In 1992 the three French saxophonists Serge Bertocchi, Pierre-Stéphane Meugé, and Jean-Michel Goury joined with Marcus Weiss of Switzerland to form XASAX - Ensemble de saxophones modulable. Their experience with contemporary music as soloists and chamber musicians in ensembles like Klangforum Wien and ensemble recherche flowed into their development of a new repertoire for saxophone. XASAX pursues a variety of historical connections, establishes ties to seemingly alien trends, and thereby creates new terrain for this young instrument. |

"'Beckett'...is a work for 23 players divided into five homophonic groups, each staying at or near its original pitch or pitches...The new disc has superlative sound: there is an inconspicuous crispness to Cambreling's Viennese band, but also a cushion-like warmth to the lower winds and strings, and a beautiful blend of timbres. This would be an excellent introduction to Feldman...Feldman acolytes will also need the disc. Indeed, no one should be caught without it." -Ashby, ARG |

Both peculiar archaism and highest sensitivity characterize this quiet while extremely tense sound landscapes of the Sicilian composer Salvatore Sciarrino. (Hans-Peter Jahn)
