Barenboim plays Pintscher : Gong in the fire

As a "Lecture-concert" was announced by the appearance of the Boulez-ensemble in the same hall, with an introduction by the composer Matthias Pintscher, in his work "ONLY". But then, the composer, of this speak for themselves, and more important to have a second performance in a modified list in the ellipse-shaped Auditorium was referring to. This is actually not previously perceived sounds in this piano Concerto, which was written the name of his Client Daniel Barenboim on the body. The soloist is not stingy with the display of his virtuoso skills in new energy-bursts of arpeggios, Glissandi, hammered chord repetitions, and Trills.

Pintscher conducting coordinated the generous animating, with the nearly 20-member Ensemble to intense sound events. Particularly the beginning, from the Horn to the influx of shadowy use of the ensemble, in the dark colours of the bass clarinet fascinated prevail, Contrabassoon and double bass. This results in a much woven cello cantilena, which leaves the management of quasi-involuntarily to the solo piano. Its strangeness makes Pintscher again and again to the test by measuring it to Celesta, harp, Glockenspiel, or with brushes, the soft intoning the Gongs.

Electronically carefully modulated blower

On the duration of the runs is a bit of a dead – especially since you would have heard from composers like something about the form of history, or thematic material, similarly to the choice of the title, which means in Hebrew and Arabic for "fire". As in the concert house format "2 x hearing" would have to focus perhaps on a single piece. So ONLY "the pintscher composition" is "Recorded track" from 2005 for three cellos and double bass, advance, flanked by an electronically carefully modulated brass and percussion, whose linear course, and tonal Transitions, oriented to the gesture of writing and get writing, Japanese calligraphy, is good to listen to.

Between the late Sonata for flute, Viola and harp by Claude Debussy in sound sensitive performance by Claudia stone, Michael Barenboim and Aline Khouri stands as a precious solitaire touching fragile, and in addition, a pattern example of formal balance and thematic stringency and compositionally-wise waiver of too many tones.
