Free Music Notes for Valentin Silvestrov: Bagatellen und Serenaden
Free Music Review: A bit over-rated
Hit: 3 Stars
I bought this CD mostly on the basis of the rave reviews at Amazon. I can't say that I share the overwhelming enthusiasm of other listeners. Silvestrov clearly comes from the same cool, Eastern European neo-tonalism of composers like Arvo P?rt. I found the 13 Bagatelles for piano here underwhelming. Oh, they're pretty enough, and gorgeously recorded in the rich acoustic of a Bavarian church, but they seem a bit shy on real content. The works for strings here are a bit more persuasive, and a bit edgier. The most interesting works here seem to be responding to tonal music from the past as if from a great distance. And admittedly, the world is drastically different today than it was for Franz Schubert, and it seems like contemporary music needs to acknowledge that psychological distance. So I'm afraid this CD doesn't make me want to rush out and acquire every work I can by Silvestrov, though I know some filmmakers who might want to use some of the string pieces as background music.
