Artist(s):
ASKO Ensemble
Schonberg Ensemble

Conductor:
Jonathan Nott

Background: At an age when most composers are content to rest on their laurels and have settled for working within the musical territory they have already established, Ligeti continues to explore, and to colonise new ground voraciously. If Ligeti's music has a trademark, it is unpredictability.

'The eerie 1960's Requiem, one of Ligeti's most personal achievements, so difficult to perform convincingly, is given a brilliant lucid account here by the berlin Philharmonic and London Voices, conducted by Jonathan Nott. Ramifications and the Double Concerto for flute and oboe are similarly abstract expressions: visions of suble gesture and shimmering indeterminacy. The Hamburg Concerto, with horn soloist Marie-Louise Neunecker, ranges from valveless dreamscapes to virtuosic games. Definite.' Financial Times
