Description:

Das Klaviertrio Op. 14 schrieb Catoire zwischen 1899 und 1902. Stilistisch liegt das Trio genau auf Catoires Kompositionspfad, der in diesem Werk bewusst bereits existierende russische Kammermusikliteratur einwirkt. Doch wenngleich das Trio so wunderbar durch diese Parallelen in seiner Zeit verankert ist, zeigt es auch deutlich die charakteristischen ZÃ¼ge, die Catoires Musik abseits der zeitgenÃ¶ssischen StrÃ¶mungen halten und seine PersÃ¶nlichkeit zu einem besonderen PhÃ¤nomen in der russischen Musik machen. Da gibt es beispielsweise die Symbiose verschiedener Musiktraditionen: auf einer Seite steht seine russisch-franzÃ¶sische Abstammung, auf der anderen stehen seine deutsche Ausbildung und seine profunden Kenntnisse der Musik Richard Wagners. Catoire, und somit auch sein Stil, ist ein transnationaler BeispieleuropÃ¤er. Weitere wichtige ZÃ¼ge von Catoires Musik sind Aufrichtigkeit und die Abwesenheit jeglicher BanalitÃ¤t und Posiererei. Die beiden Gedichte Op. 34 zÃ¤hlen zu Catoires SpÃ¤twerken und entstanden zwischen 1924 und 1926. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt hatte Catoire die Russische Revolution und den BÃ¼rgerkrieg, den Tod seiner geliebten Frau und den Abschied von seinem Sohn durchlebt, der Russland fÃ¼r immer verlieÃ?. Die Musik fungiert hier als ungehemmte Ã?uÃ?erung des Komponisten in einem intimen Kreis, vielleicht sogar als Monolog, so zurÃ¼ckgenommen ist die Dynamik, so frei flieÃ?t die musikalische Sprache. In ihrer kurzen Form sind die Gedichte, die erst posthum entdeckt und verÃ¶ffentlicht wurden, die perfekte VerkÃ¶rperung von Catoires Kompositionsstil. - ZASSIMOVA/MILSTEIN/DINERSTEIN/ROINISHVILI/A.O.

Georgy Catoire did not have a high opinion of his own First String Quartet, so he destroyed it, sparing only the Andante. On the last page of the manuscript of this movement, Tchaikovsky wrote a few words, and Catoire did not have the heart to destroy the autograph of the great composer. Georgi Lvovich composed a new quartet, which in the inventory of his works is listed as Opus 4. This piece, just like the Andante from the destroyed quartet, was never published and the manuscript seems to have been lost. After a while, Catoire reworked the quartet into a quintet. The manuscript of this quintet, and the surviving Andante, was discovered several years ago. Thus, the recordings of this quintet and the remaining Andante presented on this release are the first performances of these early works of Catoire. Catoire composed the Piano Trio Op.14 in the years 1899 to 1902. Stylistically, the Trio can be placed right in the middle of the compositional path of Catoire, which consciously ties in with the creation of this work to the already existing Russian chamber music literature. But although the Trio is so beautifully anchored in it's time by such parallels, it clearly embodies the characteristic traits that keep Catoire's music away from contemporary trends and that make his personality a special phenomenon in the history of Russian music. The two Poems Op. 34 are late works from Catoire and were composed in 1924-26. At the time Catoire, had experienced the Russian Revolution and the Civil War, the death of his beloved wife, the farewell to his son, who left Russia forever. The music acts like a free speech of the composer in an intimate circle, or even as a soliloquy - so restrained is the dynamics, so freely works the musical speech.
