Heinz Holliger Marie-Lise Schüpbac - Con Slancio

Facts The album includes premier recordings of six Holliger compositions written between 2018 and 2020, as well as strongly contrasting pieces dedicated to him by fellow composers over the years. The earliest of these are Jürg Wyttenbach's Sonate (1961) and Jacques Wildberger's Rondeau (1962), and the most recent are György Kurtág's aphoristic con slancio, largamente and Toshio Hosokawa's evocative Musubi (Knots), both written to celebrate Holliger's 80th birthday in 2019.
