Giya Kancheli - Magnum Ignotum

MP3 320 kbps / 107 Mb / Scans

The great Rostropovich puts his cello at the service of old friend Giya Kancheli: "I love this composer for his independence," Rostropovich says. "Olivier Messiaen revealed for me the limitlessness and endlessness of time, and the same is true for Kancheli." These premiere recordings feature inspired performances by the Royal Flanders Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Jansug Kakhidze. Essential listening. If you like Magnum Ignotum, then you'd probably like: Giya Kancheli, Lament Giya Kancheli, Exil Giya Kancheli, Abii ne Viderem Giya Kancheli, Trauerfarbenes Land Giya Kancheli, Vom Winde beweint.
