  • Description

    "Snce his unexpected death at the age of 52 in 1998, Gérard Grisey has been increasingly recognised as one of the most important figures in late 20th-century European music.



    For all its technical profundity and mathematical precision, Grisey's music has a spectacular physical presence, too. This is experienced in its glistening chords and unfathomable plunges from the highest registers to the lowest, its whirling intensity and pools of ritualised stillness, as well as in the occasional moment of utter simplicity, such as in the almost wistful theme with which the viola begins the Prologue." - The Guardian
