Description
Steffen Schleiermacher, a global player in the field of
contemporary music, once again presents astonishing
new finds, now from his latest journey. His new
album, Calligraphy, focuses on Japanese avant-garde
music between 1960 and 2012.
Toshio Hosokawa, Toru Takemitsu, Joji Yuasa, Keijiri Satoh, and Seiichi Inagaki represent a broad spectrum of Japanese
compositional artistry. No matter how different these
works may be, the increasing interest in the thousands of years of musical tradition in their country more than justifies their presentation together.
This is not the first time that the innovative composer and pianist has turned to an exclusively Far Eastern program. After his first CD with Japanese music and an excursion to the Indonesian archipelago, Calligraphy represents the
third volume in this little series. And once again he produces a very rewarding audio portrait of a musical landscape meriting greater notice in the West.
