Background: Mauricio Kagel is among the most distinctive composers of contemporary music. From the very beginning his name has been associated above all with music theatre, the genre in which he has perhaps exerted the greatest impact.

Besides his radical innovations in this area, however, he has also developed a highly personal aesthetic in his absolute music. Kagel's creative output has been enormous. It encompasses not only stage, orchestral and chamber music in an extremely wide range of instrumental settings, but also film scores, radio plays and essays.

Imagination, originality and humour are the hallmarks of this multimedia artist. With inexhaustible powers of invention, Kagel makes use of a very wide array of expressive devices which, although often caustic and provocative, are always placed in the service of musical discourse.

An outstanding soloist as well as a fine chamber musician, primarily with the performers involved in this CD, Alexandre Tharaud has dedicated much of his time to French music. His recording, dedicated to Jean-Philippe Rameau's Nouvelles Pièces de Clavecin, received great critical acclaim and resulted in invitations to perform internationally.
