Klangforum Wien - Salvatore Sciarrino: Solo

Salvatore Sciarrino�s oeuvre is the preserve of silence. It can be encountered in the sound spaces of night, in nocturnal trickles, creaks, creepings and wings; filigree sounds disappear into silence and re-appear abruptly and in short bursts, in large, irregular forms. The soundscapes of his music continually probe the thin line between life and death, recollection and oblivion, light and dark, growth and decay.In these transitory realms, the scans of a magical originality find their very own space.This album is part of Klangforum Wien�s �Solo� 5-CD series of recordings of pieces for one performer, which is the ensemble�s response to the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic.
