Dusapin, Pascal - Inside / Works for Viola

Das komplette Werk für Viola es frz. Avantgarde-Komponisten erstmals auf CD



Pascal Dusapin was born 29 May 1955 in Nancy, France. His music is marked by its microtonality, tension, and energy. A pupil of Iannis Xenakis and an admirer of Varèse, Dusapin studied at the University of Paris I and Paris VIII during the 1970s. His music is full of romantic constraint », and he rejects the use of electronics, percussion other than timpani, and, up until the late 1990s, piano. He wrote 8 operas and an important pieces for ensemble and solo instrument. Here is for the first time his complete work for viola. A unique artist, Pascal Dusapin continues his musical journey, formal and yet never dogmatic, offering his fiercely emotional music through a great range of diverse forms. Released in our Unclassical collection.
