Info for Intercourse of Fire and Water
Idlir Shyti hat eng mit den lebenden Komponisten dieses Albums (Tan Dun, Pascal Dusapin) zusammengearbeitet und diese Werke in ein Programm eingebettet, das mit den Möglichkeiten der Ausgewogenheit und des Potenzials über die größtmögliche Bandbreite von Klang, Klangfarbe und Form spielt. Im Gegensatz zu den Assoziationen, die man bei einem Solo-Cello mit sanfter Verzauberung verbindet, erzeugt dieses Album einen emotionalen Rausch, der sich durch alle vier persönlichen, virtuosen Werke zieht.
