IANNIS XENAKIS
Complete Works for cello solo + 1
In order for music to free itself, it will have to pass over to the other side-- there where territories tremble, where the structures collapse, where the ethoses get mixed up, where a powerful song of the earth is unleashed, the great ritornello that transmutes all the airs it carries away and makes return. Gilles Deleuze
This CD brings together, for the very first time, Iannis Xeankis' complete works for solo cello '+ 1', hommage to the 10th anniversary of his death. The music illustrates the evolution of a unique compositional trajectory, inspired by energeia, the active creative force of Greek thought, making things to what they are.

MORTON FELDMAN
Patterns In a Chromatic Field (Complete works for cello solo + piano)
Arne Deforce / Yutaka Oya
For me sound was the hero, and it still is. I feel that I am subservient. I feel that I listen to my sounds, and I do what they tell me, not what I tell them. Because I owe my life to these sounds. Right? They gave me a life. Morton Feldman

Trilogia I tre stadi dell' uomo
To escape, to flee, to withdraw to and enter another world is, according to Giacinto Scelsi, the supreme aim of the artist-creator - to dismiss thought and abandon oneself to the creative force of sound: a journey to the centre of sound. Arne Deforce
