Description
The extraordinary album Aphorisms is the second album in a series dedicated to one of Greece's leading composers, Christos Samaras. This album includes seven works. The String quartet Aphorismus is an experimental proposal of absolute musical economy, as all musical elements are given in the most abstract way. Hence, everything assumes an aphoristic character creating a mosaic of many different sound cells with poles of emotional tensions. ?naphores is an effort to disclose a content that gradually culminates with musical tiles constantly added, highlighting the concept of psychical harmonization of our existence with higher aspects of ecstasy and mental joy. Music cannot ignore human thought neither emotion. In this sense, the work Anomies - despite any atonal and virtuosic transcendences - emerges as an unconventional music style against the prevailing aesthetics of that era.
