Description
Clarinetist Michele Marelli channels the visionary spirit of Karlheinz Stockhausen in this electrifying album of works for clarinet, bass clarinet, and basset horn. From the hypnotic textures of Harmonien to the cosmic transformations of Bassetsu and the dialogic expressivity of In Freundschaft, Marelli embodies the restless Harlequin Stockhausen saw in him. The album also features the luminous zodiac cycle Tierkreis, which is masterfully interpreted by Marelli and the celebrated pianist Gianluca Cascioli. More than performers, they become vessels - rendering Stockhausen's cosmic spirituality and intricate structures with clarity, devotion, and otherworldly intensity.
