About

André Tchaikowsky | Concerto classicoDespite the rather numerous and diverse orchestral line-up, the idea of concertare has a more chamber-like character here. The soloist is usually not directly confronted with the massive sound of a full orchestral tutti, but rather is involved in dialogues and interactions with small groups of instruments. (...)With exceptional naturalness, Andr Tchaikowsky managed to achieve in this concerto a balance between solo violin and a full-scale symphony orchestra, employing textures of a linear, quasi-polyphonic character enriched, however, by intense and refined harmony and contrapuntal devices drawing on the Baroque tradition.Andrzej SuekGiya Kancheli | Libera me (Quasi-Requiem)In his final composition, the Quasi-Requiem Libera me, written in the Autumn of 2018, Giya Kancheli bypassed the Latin Responsory from the Catholic Office of the Dead which had inspired composers from Verdi and Faur to Britten and Penderecki. He chose, instead, to freely set words by two of his countrys greatest poets: Vazha-Pshavela (18611915) and Galaktion Tabidze (18921959). For most of his life, Kancheli had maintained a respectful artistic distance from these Georgian masters, dazzled by their brilliance, by the intrinsic musicality of their poems, loving them too much, in fact, to draw too close. ()Near the end of his life, however, Kancheli set reticence aside and allowed the sentiments and revelations of Tabidze and Vazha-Pshavela to influence his imagination and guide him to new music. The text of his Libera me is drawn almost entirely from their work, with the exception of the thirteenth verse, written by the composer to form a bridge between the two poets.tienne Dulac

September 2022

A fair reflection of the Pole’s knotty personality, André Tchaikowsky ’s angular and awkward Violin Concerto is superbly played here. With its tolling bells and plangent chant, Kancheli’s Libera Me is mournfulness personified.
