Description
In recent years, Maja Mijatovic has tirelessly commissioned new compositions for her instrument, the harpsichord. This portrait album "to catch a running poet" contains the works of eight composers who not only come from different generations, but also from strongly contrasting cultural backgrounds. This has resulted in a collection of pieces which demonstrate the great potential for discovery that the harpsichord still has to offer.
On the one hand, "to catch a running poet" is an impressive document which captures what initiative and curiosity can produce, but on the other hand it also breaks the lance for the creativity of contemporary music creation.
The diverse repertoire of early music and the musical expression of contemporary avant-garde constitute the focus of Maja Mijatovic's artistic work. For her, this polarity represents an exciting source of various, contrasting, but related forms of expression. This led to a vivid collaboration with composers such as Christian Diendorfer, Hannes Dufek, Karlheinz Essl, Margareta Ferek-Petric, Tamara Friebel, Peter Jakober, Manuela Kerer, Sylvie Lacroix, Rafael Nassif, Å imon Vosecek.
