The first ECM album to feature Austrian pianist
Larcher's taut and powerful compositions. He's previously been heard as an
outstanding interpreter on his disc of Schoenberg/Schubert "Klavierstücke", on
Michelle Markaski's "Elogio per un'ombra", and on Heinz Holliger's "Lieder ohne
Worter". Hans-Klaus Jungheinrich: "Larcher's musical textures rely on the enormous
expansion and compression of time, working with almost cinematic montage
techniques, with cross-cuts, with rhythmic spans both long-arching and brief, with
precisely calculated intensification and internal structuring. His music is clearly and
securely shaped and radiates intellectual control...These pieces are the emanation of
enormous concentration and intensity of experience."
