Alfred SCHNITTKE (1934–1998) Complete Works for Two Violins Concerti grossi Nos. 1 and 3 1 Moz-Art à la Haydn 2 • Moz-Art 3 Prelude in memoriam Dmitri Shostakovich 4 Vadim Gluzman 1–4 , Friedemann Eichhorn 1–4 , Violins Evgeny Sinaiski 1 , Prepared Piano, Piano, Harpsichord, Celesta Deutsche Radio Philharmonie • Valentin Uryupin 1–3 Alfred Schnittke’s oeuvre carries an unmistakable personal signature that integrates widely differing stylistic worlds. The profoundly compelling works heard in this programme display an extraordinary level of expression and colours. From the haunting sonorities of the prepared piano in his First Concerto Grosso to the playful theatricality of Moz-Art (after the fragment K. 416d) this album brings together all of Schnittke’s works for two violins, both with and without orchestra. Key features: • Violinist Friedemann Eichhorn is one of the most creative and versatile musicians of his generation, easily at home in performing early Baroque music on period instruments as well as classical and contemporary works with renowned orchestras and chamber music partners. Among many other works, Friedemann Eichhorn rediscovered and first recorded the complete violin concertos of French virtuoso Pierre Rode. Among numerous Naxos recordings he has given the world premieres of Fazıl Say’s Violin Sonata No. 2 , Tristan und Isolde transcriptions and Violin Concerto No. 2 (Naxos 8.574502) on which MusicWeb International wrote, ‘This disc is an amazing experience and Fazıl Say, if you are new to him, is a revelation…’ • Vadim Gluzman is universally recognised among today’s top performing artists, appearing with the world’s leading orchestras and conductors and performing premieres of works by the likes of Sofia Gubaidulina, Erkki-Sven Tüür, Moritz Eggert, Giya Kancheli, Elena Firsova, Pēteris Vasks, Michael Daugherty and Lera Auerbach. His performances are heard around the world through livestreams, broadcasts and a striking catalogue of award-winning recordings on the BIS, Platoon and EuroArts labels, and we are delighted to be able to add Naxos Records to his distinguished catalogue.
