(DVD - Code 2)

| Inhalt: |
Extremely private in his later years, Giacinto Scelsi allowed a select group of musicians to work with him and gain special insight into his unique compositions. Renowned contemporary music pianist Aki Takahashi was one of these musicians.
The program Ms. Takahashi has seIected for this recital is largely made up of works which she prepared with the composer.
lt includes the Quattro lIlustrazioni - a tour-de-force of exotic, erotic iIlustrations depicting the different incarnations of Vishnu.
SceIsi's interest in microtonality Ied him to abandon writing for the piano in the mid-1950s, with the exception of two works recorded here. In Aitsi, the naturaI attack of the piano is masked by distortion generated eIectronically from the attack of the note(s), aIlowing only the naturaI decay of the note to be heard. Un Adieu, is an extraordinariIy beautifuI, meIancholic piece that truIy conveys the feeIing of "fareweII" in its titIe. |
