Valentin Silvestrov Kyiv, Ukraine
Valentin Silvestrov (1937) is a Ukrainian composer of contemporary classical music, increasingly regarded as one of the
finest composers of his generation.
Using traditional tonal and modal techniques, Silvestrov creates a unique and delicate tapestry of dramatic and emotional textures, qualities which Silvestrov suggests are otherwise sacrificed in much of contemporary music.

Dirt... And More Dirt
by Henry Threadgill 14 or 15 Kestra: Agg
supported by 4 fans who also own “Live at the National Philharmonic (2017)”
I really appreciate that with such a large group of musicians the overall sound and experience of listening is really spacious, never cluttered. The lovely recording helps that a lot, and of course the compositional aspects that make it breathe are superb- it gets more and more fun as I listen again and again.

The Other One
by Henry Threadgill
supported by 4 fans who also own “Live at the National Philharmonic (2017)”
A very interesting album. At a few places I keep asking myself: Was this composed by Arnold Schönberg (or his disciples)? Anyway, I'm all for skilled musicians exploring the boundary (if one exists) between jazz and classical. Thumbs up!

Electric Intervals
by Martyn Heyne
A work of beautiful, pointillist guitar from Martyn Heyne, the moving songs on “Electric Intervals” are made of tiny pinpricks of sound.

Fragile cello and piano recall the bleak childhood of brothers Sebastian and Daniel Selke spent in a large prefab estate in East Berlin.

A cycle of 9 duets, “Isolario” is by turns intricate, sparse, mysterious, and moving.

Total mastery of patience, time, and drama create a constantly engaging journey that never gets tiresome or same-y: in fact the harder you listen the better it gets! Somehow Sorey et al. find a way to combine the deep listening and spontaneous interaction of the best jazz with the sense of every tone and sound being worth a universe of listening, which could be equally from Cage and Feldman or the accompaniment to an ancient ritual. The recording/engineering is absolutely perfect as well.
