Description
Harpist Rachel Talitman presents the world premiere recording of Michel Lysight's Equinox, and other works.
Considered one of the great representatives of the postmodern movement, Michel Lysight (*1958) has composed one hundred and eighty works of all genres: symphonies, orchestral works, concertos, chamber music, vocal music. His very personal language combines intense lyricism and rhythmic exigency because he has the desire to reintegrate the notion of pleasure into contemporary music, both for performers and listeners. He taught music theory and contemporary music at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels from 1980 to 2021.
Dedicated to Jean-Marc Fessard and Rachel Talitman, Equinox (2023) was composed specifically for the recording of this CD. At the beginning, a melodic motif develops through frequent changes of modes and rhythmic inventiveness that constantly relaunch the discourse. This is followed by a more agitated and virtuosic central part, with a more pronounced dramatic character, but the work ends in a peaceful meditative atmosphere.
