Description:For her latest studio album, HĂ©lène travels to Salzburg where she creates a fascinating juxtaposition between the eternal W A Mozart and the Ukrainian composer Valentin Silvestrov (b 1937) HĂ©lène has long had a passion for Silvestrovâ??s music, which some call post modernist or even neoclassical .."Like Arvo Pärt Silvestrovâ??s music is harmonic, which far from being a weakness, is an enlightenment in its own right and very powerful in its simplicity", says HĂ©lène The composerâ??s own words hint at why this is for her so intriguing I do not write new music My music is a response to and an echo of what already exists" In selecting the music for this album, HĂ©lène has carefully chosen music by Mozart that fits into an overall dramaturgy from Mozart's famous unfinished D minor Fantasy, Helene transitions seamlessly into the great D minor concerto K 466 one of the most popular amongst Mozart's 27 concertos (and one of only two in a minor key) The C minor Fantasy here signals "the end of Mozart" and a new beginning The Messenger starts with a theme reminiscent of Mozart, and like a messenger, creates a connection between the present and the world that existed before Melancholy and hope, sadness and exuberance can be felt emanating from both Mozart's and Silvestrov's works The Messenger, one of Silvestrovâ??s most performed works, is dedicated to his wife Larissa Bondarenko who had recently passed away The Two Dialogues with Postscript that serve here as an epilogue, leave the outcome open, leading the way to Schubert, Wagner and beyond - CAMERATA SALZBURG
For her latest studio album, Helene travels to Salzburg where she creates a fascinating juxtaposition between the eternalW. A. Mozartand the Ukrainian composerValentin Silvestrov(b. 1937). Helene has long had a passion for Silvestrov'smusic, whichsome call post-modernist or even neoclassical. 'LikeArvo Part, Silvestrov's music is harmonic, which far from being a weakness, is an enlightenment in it's own right and very powerful in it's simplicity', says Helene. The composer's own words hint at why this is for her so intriguing: 'I do not write new music. My music is a response to and an echo of what already exists'. In selecting the music for this album, Helene has carefully chosen music by Mozart that fits into an overall dramaturgy: fromMozart's famous unfinished D minor Fantasy, Helene transitions seamlessly into the great D minor concerto K. 466 - one of the most popular amongst Mozart's 27 concertos (and one of only two in a minor key). The C minor Fantasy here signals 'the end of Mozart' and anew beginning.
