Inge Kocher - Sound of Rooms - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

A concert performance of Darius Milhaud's InchintermedialInch ballets, alongside the world premiere recording of the complete original version of Salade. This brings together all that is most irresistible in the music of the great French master of modernism jazz, the circus, reimaginings of early music, serenades from Sardinia, and the folkloric colours of Provence. A distinguished cast of young vocal soloists, together with a chamber ensemble of the Poznan Philharmonic, is led by Lukasz Borowicz, an eminent interpreter of unjustly neglected scores.

In the 20th century, composers Erik Satie,Francis Poulenc, and John Cage eachcreated a pause in music-a caesura-byexploring life's contrasts the noise of theoutside world and the quiet of inner reflection.Satie balanced cabaret flair with meditativestillness. Poulenc exposed the cabaret'scharm and underlying despair beforeturning to sacred music. Cage broke withtradition, using experimental simplicity todraw listeners inward and awaken deeperlistening.A journey inward-a Room for Listening
