Ondine here presents a recording of chamber music by Kaija Saariaho. Known for her colourful orchestration, Saariaho’s impressive variety of sound is apparent in all of the works included here.
The trios are composed for different combinations of instruments, each of them demonstrating their individual colours.
Ondine has previously released the orchestral version of Mirage, and here presents the world première recording of the trio version. Musicians on this recording have performed Saariaho’s work for a number of years and display a striking affinity with her music.
The release also celebrates Kaija Saariaho’s 60th birthday (14th October 2012).
The CD is self-recommending to contemporary-music connoisseurs, but not exclusively to them.
These performances by musicians having a close working association with the composer are ideal. They are also superbly served by Ondine's beautiful recording...This well-filled release is an important addition to Saariaho's ever-growing discography and a must for all devotees of her music.
