Description
This new release contains three compositions for clarinet and string quartet written by Polish composers Tansman, Weinberg and Pzybylski. The unique combination of the clarinet's timbre and the sound of string instruments has inspired composers since the classical era. The album features much later works byTansman and Weinberg, which belong to their last opuses, as well as an early composition by Przybylski, who is still considered one of the young generation of artists.
Each composition is distinguished by its individual colour and recognizable style - neoclassical simplicity, motor expression and inspirations with motifs from Jewish music. What they have in common is the richness of colours and emotional depth.
With this album, Piotr Lato confirms his virtuoso predispositions and musical sensitivity, and the Messages Quartet is his worthy partner, perfectly managing the balance of dynamics and tension levels in the parts of individual instruments.
