REFLECTIONS

Composers reflect their contemporary world, and today’s performers mirror our time. The three works on this album all have a high degree of intensity and a strong personal character, as tributes, visions, fantasies, interpretations. As musical reflections they have these qualities in common, but at the same time they are very different works composed by three distinct musical personalities. Passion. Perfection. Raw intensity. With these fundamentals, the chamber orchestra TrondheimSolistene is carving out its own musical images in immersive audio.

Immersive Audio is a sonic sculpture that you can literally move around and relate to spatially; surrounded by music you can move about in the aural space and choose angles, vantage points and positions. Dolby Atmos and the Auro-3D on this Pure Audio Blu-ray delivers a new standard in immersion, fully enveloping the audience in a cocoon of life-like audio. Recorded in discrete 12.1 at DXD resolution.


Komponistene speiler sin samtid og utøverne reflekterer vår nåtid. Et tema eller en musikalsk frase utvikler budskapet, skaper nye klanger og bryter tematiske tråder i aktuelle retninger. De tre verkene på denne innspillingen har høy intensitet og svært personlig karakter – de er hyllester, utvidelser, visjoner, fantasier og fortolkninger. Som musikalske betraktninger har de alt dette felles, og likevel er de svært ulike verker skrevet av tre distinkte musikalske personligheter. Med pasjon og perfeksjon har TrondheimSolistene definert et spillerom for seg selv hvor orkesteret leverer rå musikalitet direkte til lytterens personlige rom.

Kunstnerisk leder siden 2002 er cellisten, pedagogen og talentutvikleren Øyvind Gimse. Coverdesign er basert på originale malerier av Håkon Gullvåg laget spesielt for denne produksjonen etter kunstnerens opplevelser under innspillingen i Selbu kirke.
