New CD with orchestral work "strane costellazioni" at Musique Suisses

The works on this Grammont Sélection, twelve world premières from 2013, offer contemporary examples of open boundaries. This openness is reflected not least in the diversity of styles to be heard here. The selection itself, however, encounters boundaries that are determined by the very medium of the CD. We cannot make any claim to completeness here, for our selection lacks electronic, improvised and vocal music, to give three examples.
The determining criterion, ultimately, is the musical quality that is revealed in the moment of listening. Listening is here like a journey into the unknown that always begins anew. Every description of it, including this text, is only a prologue to this journey – one that is dispensable, because the works really do not need any theoretical underpinning. They are in the best possible sense “anti-universal, anti-intellectual, in a word: alive” (Ramuz).
