About
• Vladimir Martynov (b. 1946) is one of the leading composers of the Russian avant-garde, an experimentalist of serial, minimalist and electronic music. His ethno-musicological studies into the folk music of Russia, his philosophical and religious ideas and his great knowledge of Renaissance polyphony as well as Orthodox Chant all inspired his compositions. His principles are: commitment to traditional rules; modality as a constant feature of musical language; and repetitiveness as a means of immersion in states of prayer, mantra, and ritual in general.
• This set, compiled for his 75th birthday, presents sacred vocal works: Christmas Music, Requiem, Stabat Mater, Lamentations of Jeremiah, as well as instrumental music: Singapore, Night in Galicia, Dance with the Dead Friend (piano & orchestra), Come in! (violin & orchestra) and Der Abschied (string ensemble).
• Performed by famous musicians from the composer’s close circle: pianist Alexei Lubimov, Tatiana Grindenko, the Sirin Choir, OP POSTH Ensemble, Dmitri Pokrovsky Ensemble and others. • A valuable tribute to one of the most original and moving voices of present day Russia.
