Momo Kodama - Point And Line: Debussy & Hosokawa Etudes [CD]

Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.All items shipped within 3 working days of payment.Born in Osaka, educated at the Conservatoire National Supxe9rieur de Paris, Momo Kodama is well-placed to approach music from both Eastern and Western vantage points, as she does in this album which interweaves etudes of Claude Debussy (1862-1918) and Toshio Hosokawa (born 1955).rrBoth composers have similarly been border-crossers. Debussy, pointing to music of the future, looked to the Orient for inspiration. Hosokawa has combined aspects of Japanese and European tradition in his contemporary compositions. Momo Kodama: 'In the music of Toshio Hosokawa I find elements close to Debussy: the freedom of form and tone colour, the sense of poetic design, with a wide range of lyricism and dynamics, between meditation and virtuoso development, between light and shade, between large gestures and minimalist refinement.'rrPoint and Line is the pianist's second ECM album and follows the widely-praised La vallxe9e des cloches, with music of Ravel, Takemitsu and Messiaen, of which American Record Guide noted. 'Kodama's impeccable technique and facility for crystalline sounds makes for a mesmerizing program.'
