Kim Kashkashian brings Armenia's leading contemporary composer to ECM
New Series in a programme that also explores the roots of Armenian music.
Compositions by Tigran Mansurian for viola and percussion, played by
Kashkashian and Robyn Schulkowsky, receive their premiere recordings
here, and frame a selection of Mansurian's arrangements of the music of
Komitas.
Komitas (1869-1935) is revered by Armenians as his nation's most
brilliant songwriter. He was also more than this. Composer, priest,
philosopher, poet, ethnomusicologist, collector of folk songs, writer of
sacred and secular music that bridged the old and the new .... The fine
line that connects the melodic character of the most ancient Armenian
music with the works of contemporary Armenian composers runs through
Komitas.In his settings of the Komitas pieces, Mansurian shows us the
rich soil from which his own music springs. - http://www.ecmrecords.com
