Description
This new album combines two works for ensemble, performed by Ensemble KNM Berlin and Ensemble Musikfabrik with a major cycle for chamber choir, sung by Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart
The composer Ming Tsao writes music with a sensuality that arises out of a focus on the inherent
qualities of sound - what the composer calls its "materiality" - coupled to an extreme formal rigour and a highly precise, finely-crafted compositional style. In the foreground of his music is a contemporary conception of musical lyricism, which is fractured, multi-faceted and problematised to reflect the modern experience.
Many of Ming Tsao's works are the result of a critical and deep-thinking examination of the Western classical tradition as well as his serious engagement with Chinese traditional music.
