Description
This year 2020, the world celebrates the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz after the Holocaust. Around the same time, in the Görlitz concentration camp, the composer Oliver Messiaen wrote his “Quartet for the End of Time”, a fundamental work in the history of chamber music of the 20th century, which in 2021 will celebrate the 80th anniversary of its premiere. This album provides the recording of two chamber music works, possibly the most important of the 20th century: The Quartet pour la fin du Temps (Messiaen) and Quatrain II (Takemitsu), both for an unusual instrumental group: clarinet, violin, cello and piano. The Quartet pour la fin du Temps was inspired by the tenth chapter of the Book of Revelation and it is dedicated to the Angel of the Apocalypse.
