New Music Show 2/10/21 Rebecca Saunders and George Crumb

[Beresford]

How's your German? Their programme note for the duo is here: https://ultraschallberlin.de/aufsatz...aunders-taste/

Rebecca wrote a piano part to an existing violin solo by Enno, and Enno wrote a violin part to one of Rebecca's piano solos.

Thanks for the explanation. I like the use of woolen gloves on the violin.

I’m fairly sure the gloves are for the piano… or maybe I’m missing something here? (I’m pretty sure the violinist at the premiere wasn’t wearing gloves, at least.)

[Mandryka]

Thanks for pointing out Taste -- I think it's rather nice.

I must admit that for me it’s a bit tricky because I know the original pieces reasonably well! So it’s quite tricky for me to hear the new piece in its own right…
