Description
The music of Jorge Villavicencio Grossmann is rich in allusions to other repertoires. Although the sound world his music inhabits is that of twenty-first century modernism, references to earlier music abound.
Aspects of the music of Bach and of the Second Viennese School (Schoenberg, Berg, and Webern) coincide with Grossmann’s own inventiveness and verve. And although he now lives and works in the U.S., his music also is informed by the art and culture of South America, where he spent the first part of his life.
The works on this recording illustrate the breadth and depth of all these influences. The Talea Ensemble, Mivos Quartet as well as soloists Kyle Armbrust and Anna D’Errico are amongst the most eminent performers of contemporary music and make a strong case for Grossmann’s music.
