Speaking Rzewski: Stephane Ginsburgh interpretiert Frederic Rzewski

Im Rahmen der “Unclassical”-Reihe bringen Sub Rosa ein Album mit Stephane Ginsburghs Interpretationen des Komponisten Frederic Rzewski (1938-2021) heraus. In den vergangenen Jahren pflegten die beiden eine enge kreative Freundschaft, einige der vorliegenden auf Piano und fragmenthaften Spoken Words basierenden Tracks wurden speziell für den jüngeren Musiker geschrieben. Das Album erscheint auf CD mit ausführlichem Booklet, sowie als Download.

“This album is the result of years of work and friendship with the composer. It started with De Profundis, a piece which has had a deep impact on me as a musician and a person, and ended with it. Frederic attended many of my performances of the piece, the last one during our last public concert together in early 2020 in Brussels. In the meantime, he wrote Dear Diary (2014) and America: A Poem (2020) for me which were both premiered at ARS MUSICA festival. I am very happy to present these pieces to you on this new and special album coming out on Sub Rosa. (Stephane Ginsburgh)
