Label: Sub Rosa

Giacinto Scelsiの[Xnoybis]を含む名演集!!Discreet Editionsより出版した2022年1stアルバム[13 Visions]が素晴らしかった、主にコンテンポラリー、エクスペリメンタルのフィールドで活動するバイオリニストClara Levy。ベルギーの名門Sub Rosaより出版した2ndアルバム[Outre-Nuit]。自身の楽曲の他、Giacinto Scelsi、Eva-Maria Houben、Kaija Saariahoらの楽曲も演奏したまさに激ハードコアな作品集であり、全編に渡りヒリヒリとした緊張感が支配し続けます。超傑作。









PURE NOCTURAL SOUND
Outre-nuit as Outre-noir by Pierre Soulage,s the greatest nuances on subtle variations. The programme can be listened to in one go between Clara's two compositions, it's Xnoybis, an extraordinary performance by the great Scelsi - a piece that makes you feel like you're listening for the first time - Giacinto Scelsi's Xnoybis (1964) is a journey amongst the reliefs contained within one single pitch. Written in three parts, the piece is an instinctive approach to the sound spectrum (the term "spectral music" will be coined a decade later). A nocturne by Kaija Saariaho focuses on the sound material metamorphosis. Erika Vega and Eva Maria Houben, two young female composers, close the programme. In reality, it's just a journey and this programme as 'sonic listening meditations '.

Clara Levy (1991) is a French violinist and improviser living in Brussels whose career is mainly focused on new music performance. She has been developing solo project addressing different topics at the core of contemporary music practice : the blurred lines between interpretation and composition (13 Visions) or the listening experience and dramaturgy of the concert (Outre-Nuit).
