Romancendres for cello and piano (2003)
Feuerwerklein zum “quatorze juillet” for piano solo (2012)
Chaconne for cello solo (1975)
Partita for piano solo (1999)

Two wonderful instrumentalists show their reverence for one of the great composers of our time: the cellist Daniel Haefliger and the pianist Gilles Vonsattel play works by Heinz Holliger on the new CD in the Artist-Consort series from GENUIN. The works range from early pieces to the composer's current production, revealing a downright astonishing stylistic variety. From the sonic journeys of discovery of the Chaconne (1975) to the explosions in colour of the Feuerwerklein (Little Fireworks, 2012), from almost inaudible processes of amalgamation in Romancendres to the relentlessly interminable rhythms in the final movement of the Partita. An outstanding retrospective, performed splendidly!
