Pianoworks Iridescent Mother Of Pearl
[engl] Limited edition of 1000 copies! 3xLP set includes the bonus album, Pianoworks Vol. 2, featuring new recordings of every Eluvium solo piano work ever released. All 3 records are pressed onto a unique, custom-mixed Iridescent Mother of Pearl colored vinyl. Pianoworks is Eluvium's first solo piano album since his sophomore album, An Accidental Memory In The Case Of Death (2004). Inspired by the quiet thoughts and solitary observations of children - and the evolution/dissolution of that ephemeral, uncorrupted wonder of simple joy - Pianoworks begins with a song about children's piano lessons, and culminates with an etude driven by the struggle to hold onto innocence and imagination as adulthood settles in. The record's dramatic simplicity in both execution and expression is with purpose: Cooper wants the music to be simple enough to inspire children and novices to play, and the concept simple enough to resonate regardless of age or experience. As any minimalist painter, poet, or architect can attest, it is oftentimes the profoundly simple art that proves to be the most time-consuming and torturous to produce. Pianoworks exemplifies this dichotomy, having been recorded, re-recorded, and re-re-recorded in the span of nearly a decade. Cooper exhausted every attempt to achieve a very specific, peculiar sound that is out of time - a sound not entirely lost in an attic, but also one not easily found in a playlist. The process to achieve this elusive sound was painstaking, but it has yielded a rare kind of music that is as uncomplicated as it is uncompromised.- Format

Concert-Requiem / -Islands-
[engl] Limited All Analog Remastering Recording This is one my most beloved albums ... it always reminds me of the horror that occurred in my homeland, Ukraine, in 1933. And I am always thankful when I hear it. It is good to remember the suffering of other people ! Otherwise, life is not worth living..... This album came about in an interesting way .... there came to me a melody at some point that year ... I was not even at the piano .... a melody that I just began to sing ... When I played it on the piano for my friend, the artist Dmitri Farkavec, he right away loved it and suggested that it would be a great opening for a piece dedicated to the multi-millions of Ukrainians who suffered a terrible and deliberate extinction at the hands of the Russians who had invaded my country. As he said to me, "1983 is the 50 year commemoration of the Terror Famine --- it would be a good year to make this piece." And so it came to be ! "CONCERT-REQUIEM" is dedicated to the over seven million Ukrainians who were killed by the Forced Starvation of 1933 who watched in agony as Communist police destroyed grain as they and their children lay starving to death. This album also contains "ISLANDS" for solo piano --- a remarkable bass-oriented piece depicting enormous masses of mystical and murky islands moving through an imaginary sea.. It was inspired by and created for a dance performance by Windwitches of Stockholm. Original Release: 1984 Limited All Analog Remastering Recording- Format

Corollaries
Alles im Klangfluss: Der ukrainische Klaviervirtuose setzt auf Obertöne. "Corollaries" nennt sich die erste Veröffentlichung des ukrainischen Pianisten Lubomyr Melnyk auf dem Label Erased Tapes. Der 1948 geborene Melnyk ist ein wahrer Pionier, der neue Pfade für zeitgenössische Musik erkundet. Er gilt als Wegbereiter der Continuous Piano Music, einer Klaviertechnik, die versucht, einen kontinuierlichen, ungebrochenen Klangfluss aufrecht zu erhalten. Seinen Fokus legt er hierbei ebenso stark auf den eigentlichen Klang des Klaviers wie auf die Harmonien und Melodien der Komposition. Rasante und komplexe Notenmuster machten Lubomyr zu einem der schnellsten Konzertpianisten der Welt. Mit seiner virtuosen Spielweise formt er Obertöne, die verschmelzen, kollidieren und in seltenen Momenten sogar neue Melodien entstehen lassen, und damit die Komposition jenseits ihrer ursprünglichen Form weiter gestalten. Das Album wurde von Peter Broderick produziert und aufgenommen in Berlin mit der Unterstützung von Nils Frahm und Martyn Heyne. Die Vinylausgabe hat einen Bonus-Track.- Format

Fallen Trees
Lubomyr Melnyk ist einer der außergewöhnlichsten Pianisten unserer Zeit. Seine Musik gleicht mit Klangketten wie Wasserfällen und Tonfolgen, die nach reißenden Klangströmen klingen, einer erhabenen Naturgewalt. Auch "Fallen Trees" wurzelt auf dieser besonderen Bindung zur Umwelt, denn die zentrale Inspirationsquelle war eine lange Zugreise durch Europa. Als der Fernzug schließlich einen düsteren Wald durchquerte, sah der 1948 in der Ukraine geborene Melnyk vor seinem Fenster eine Reihe kürzlich gefällter Bäume: "Und sie sahen glorreich aus", berichtete der Komponist. "Auch wenn man sie getötet hatte, waren sie noch längst nicht tot. Der Anblick hatte etwas Trauriges - aber zugleich war da auch Hoffnung." Dieses Gefühl von Traurigkeit, in dem auch Zuversicht mitschwingt, zieht sich durch das nach den Bäumen benannte Album. Genau genommen hat Melnyk selten Musik aufgenommen, die dermaßen von Melancholie und Bedauern gezeichnet ist, und dabei doch so hingerissen und strahlend anmutet. Wie gehabt stammen sämtliche Kompositionen aus Melnyks Feder. Bei der Umsetzung gingen ihm befreundete Erased-Tapes-Kolleginnen wie die in Berlin lebende Cellistin Anne Müller und die japanische Gesangskünstlerin Hatis Noit zur Hand.- Format

Rivers And Streams
Anknüpfend an das 2013 erschienene Album "Corollaries" und die 2014 veröffentlichte EP "Evertina", verbindet auch "Rivers And Streams" die fließende Handschrift Melnyks mit organischer Vitalität, die als gleichermaßen nuanciert durchdacht gelten darf. Wie der Titel schon andeutet und der Künstler auch selbst herausstreicht, ist das Album den Flüssen und den Strömungen dieser Welt gewidmet - in Anerkennung ihrer Schönheit. Für den ukrainischen Pianisten ist Wasser "das magischste und mysteriöseste von allen Dingen, die wir kennen". Spannend: Das Thema der Veröffentlichung korrespondiert mit dessen Aufnahmetechnik. Melnyk ist bekannt für seine einzigartige "Continuous Music"-Spielweise, die zurecht häufig mit Wasser verglichen wird. Auf "Rivers And Streams" konzentriert sich Melnyk komplett auf seine tiefe Verbindung mit dem Element, bis zu dem Punkt, an dem die Musik amorph und sich ständig verändernd selbst geradezu "flüssig" wird. Von dahintröpfelnden Bächen über sich windende Flusstäler erreicht das Album seinen Höhepunkt in dem majestätischen, 20-minütigen Stück "The Amazon". Jamie Perera an der Akustik- und elektrischen Gitarre und die koreanische Flötenspielerin Hyelim Kim steuern jeweils einen Gastauftritt bei.- Format

The Lund - St.Petri Symphony
[engl] " In 1978 I arrived for my first time to Sweden, to the town of Lund .. and there I met a remarkable man named Jean Sellem who ran a tiny gallery in the middle of the town, "The Galleri St.Petri: Dedicated To Modern Art and Thought "... and he was one of the few and first people who saw the greatness and beauty of Continuous Music .. and since I was a complete "unknown" at that time, I really needed his moral support ! --- and he created with me, the idea of a huge work for multiple pianos ... three pianos .. in stages ... and it became as he had envisioned ! and was first performed on a small upright piano in 1978 in his gallery, and the piece was called THE LUND.St.PETRI SYPMPHONY .. becuase it was so symphonic in grandeur (once the three pianos came together ...) The Lund - St. Petri Symphony, from 1979, is the second album from Lubomyr Melnyk and the first composition for double piano which he released. In this work, the early minimalist tendencies which played such a major part in the emergence of Continuous music, are very significant and clearly evident. This Double LP set sold out within 1 year of production, Only 1000 copies were made. Original Release: 1980 Limited All Analog Remastering Recording- Format

The Song of Galadriel
[engl] "Reading Tolkein´s LORD OF THE RINGS saga was one of the greatest experiences of my life ... his amazing talent for words was mindboggling ... and the great topics he touched upon remain forever as the most important topics of life ... they are still most valid today .. and will be for all eternity. Everything he described through his magical words came to life before my eyes ! So it was most natural that he would inspire music within me ... music that I can not describe in words how it relates to the Saga .. but deep inside me, it all shines clear as a lamp-post on a dark street ... and it shines into my soul in many, many dimensions....." .... and on a technical note, this piece marked the first time I created Arpegge Melodies within Continuous Music !" In the ”Song of Galadriel” Lubomyr Melnyk has created one of the great epics of piano music in our century, a work of visionary character, filled with haunting and delicate melodies that evoke the mystical world of Tolkein's ”Lord Of The Rings”.

VANESSA WAGNER
Inland
[engl] Described by newspaper Le Monde as "the most delightfully singular pianist of her generation", Vanessa Wagner's career mirrors her personality: original and committed, combining classical repertoire, contemporary creations, ancient instrumental techniques, chamber music, with her own videos, electronic music, dance and theatre references. With this new album, the 50th release on Infiné, she continues to explore the world of minimalist composers. On Inland, the repertoire is more contemporary than ever and highlights a set of pieces, mostly rare or unavailable to date (Moondog, Nico Muhly (Björk), William Susman, Bryce Dessner (The National), Gavin Bryars) and some others well known (Philip Glass, Wim Mertens, Michael Nyman) that Vanessa Wagner performs with her classic pianist background and velvet sound. This album is an introspective journey both calm and violent. A soothing album to listen to with headphones, at night or during a trip.- Format
