Description:

Close Encounters - Works For Bassoon And String Quartet by Rui Lopes, released 5 May 2023. This version of Close Encounters - Works For Bassoon And String Quartet comes as a 1xCD. - .. WORKS FOR BASSOON AND STRING QUARTET / PIAZZOLLA A.O

This album is the fulfilment of a dream and the result of over five years of planning, developing and preparing a unique collaborative project between composers, arrangers and musicians - 6 pieces, 6 composers, 4 premieres - What inspired me to record this album was the fascinating way the sound of the bassoon blends with the string quartet. My choice of repertoire was based on pure pleasure - I chose works that I love to play, some original, others arranged, and asked composers I admire so much to write for this combination. In two of the works I added the double bass, which enriches them very much and helps immensely to encounter different sound worlds. To create this with musicians of this calibre was simply wonderful. Their interest, curiosity and flexibility together with the skill, calm and experience of our sound engineer, Andreas Werner, and the fact that we were able to record in the legendary Radiostudio in Zurich, makes me feel so privileged. I couldn't be happier with the result which I hope you too will enjoy!
