Mansurian-Lied und Gebilde (S-n2)-V/M/P/VA

Tigran Mansuryan's collaboration of more than 10 years with the violinist Kim Kashkashian and her duo partner Robyn Schulkowsky (percussion) resulted in the composition of the works published in Lied un Gebilde. In them, he used the unusual combination of viola and percussion to create musical spaces in which Armenian traditions and Western European modernism meet – in a stylistically exciting manner, from brittle austerity to sweeping melody and sound mysticism.
