Andre / Lachenmann / Duo Lallement Marques - Andre, Criton & Lachenmann: Haptic - Music & Performance - CD

The new CD Haptic by the French guitar duo Lallement Marques, two musicians internationally recognized for it's interpretations of the contemporary repertoire, presents a singular program through the compositions of three authors: Helmut Lachenmann, Mark Andre and Pascale Criton, a journey through the surprising sounds of music of our time. The publication opens with Salut fur Caudwell by Helmut Lachenmann ((1935), a piece composed in 1977, with a performance by the Duo resulting from a long experience developed together with the composer. Characterized by a permanent tension, the score has become a reference work for the repertoire for two guitars, a piece by Lachenmann follows iv 14 by Mark Andre (1964), a piece of "intense fragility", terms in which, says Elisa Constable, "all the compositional challenges of Mark Andre's work, profoundly oriented towards the search for an ineffable artistic and spiritual." This intense journey of listening to the textures of different compositional languages ends with Trans, in five movements, by Pascale Criton (1954), an author who in his research he particularly explores the variability of sound and the spatialization of listening.
