Description

For her latest studio album, H�l�ne travels to Salzburg where she creates a fascinating juxtaposition between the eternal�W.A. Mozart�and the Ukrainian composer�Valentin Silvestrov�(b. 1937). H�l�ne has long had a passion for Silvestrov's�music, which�some call post-modernist or even neoclassical. 'Like�Arvo P�rt, Silvestrov's music is harmonic, which far from being a weakness, is an enlightenment in its own right and very powerful in its simplicity',�says H�l�ne.�The composer's own words hint at why this is for her so intriguing: 'I do not write new music. My music is a response to and an echo of what already exists'. In selecting the music for this album, H�l�ne has carefully chosen music by Mozart that fits into an overall dramaturgy: from�Mozart's famous unfinished D minor Fantasy, Helene transitions seamlessly into the great D minor concerto K. 466 - one of the most popular amongst Mozart's 27 concertos (and one of only two in a minor key). The C minor Fantasy here signals 'the end of Mozart' and a�new beginning.
