Description
Ataneres Ensemble and Kugoni Trio here present Concerto Grosso, their first joint album, in which the saxophone, violin and piano of the Kugoni Trio enter into a uniquely adventurous dialogue with the strings of the Ataneres Ensemble. The two ensembles offer a contemporary interpretation of the concerto grosso, an instrumental genre from the Baroque period in which a group of solo instruments interact with an instrumental ensemble. The Kugoni Trio and the Ataneres Ensemble aim not only to promote classical music in innovative ways but also to spotlight new works by Flemish composers.
Astor Piazzolla's Concierto del Angel is therefore placed alongside works by Piet Swerts, Jeroen D'hoe and Pieter Schuermans which were initially created as collaborations with or commissions by the Kugoni Trio and which were arranged for this occasion.
The work that opens this CD is by the Flemish composer Erik Desimpelaere, who has worked closely with both ensembles on many occasions.
