- this is the third recording in the series Hvoslef Chamber Works started in 2012
The project 'Ketil Hvoslef's chamber music' was initiated in 2012 by violinist Ricardo Odriozola and pianist Einar Røttingen, both with backgrounds spanning many years of cooperation with the composer. The catalyst for the idea was the fact that most of Hvoslef's chamber works had not been recorded and that, in view of their consistently high quality, deserved larger international attention and exposure. Thus, the idea to document all 38 works on an album arose, and thr ecord company Lawo Classics agreed to come onboard. Collaboration with the performers is instrinsic to Hvoslef's work as a composer. By trying out his ideas in dialogue with the players, a higher refinement of the details is achieved and the score is altered accordingly. This is an important part of the compositional process. This album marks the third in the series.
