Reviews (2) |

Silvestrov is a composer-innovator who is well known not only in Ukraine. Some years ago he became a laureate of international contests, for example, in the USA and the Netherlands. His "Meditation" is a symphony for a violoncello and a chamber orchestra. Meditation in a general sense is a state, a process and quality at the same time. Since a symphony is called to reproduce and to recreate the first, the second and the third (don’t forget about fruit compote!), it is hopeless to reproduce the content. This music… is in a glass half-filled with water, and there’s a border that both joins and separates water and air in the glass. This border doesn’t belong to any of these two parts – it belongs to both of them. This music lives between molecules of the music we’ve got used to. It joins them and – separates. That’s why one should not listen to it on the move, reading a newspaper and eating a cutlet at the same time. Be more careful, please. Anton Yozhyk Leyba (Hedgehog)

Just incredible music – simple and wonderful at the same time.. And simple not because it does not contain delicate nuances, but because it succeeds, having rounded all sophistications of intellectual perception, to slightly open the door – right into the heart.. The multidimensional character of real Names – this is what you remember when listening to this disc.

"Ivan Karabits worked in many musical genres – from instrumental miniatures to large symphonic works. The disc includes records of compositions written by the composer in different periods of his life."

"...there is a certain analogy with Bach's cycle "The Art of the Fugue"; in Bach's work the didactic idea and its application are primary. I could have called this cycle "The Art of the Melody", but in this name the didactic idea is missing and only the "art" is represented; thus "fleeting melodies" – the expanse, in which melodies exist on the boundary between their appearance and disappearance..."

...this disc even became the first (!) recording of sonatas by Myroslav Skoryk. Moreover: even the very music sheets of Sonata No.2 were not yet published at that moment. And Sonata No.1, by the way, is one of his diploma pieces in the domain of chamber music with which he in his time defended his degree after post-graduate studies in Moscow. Thus, this release can be justly referred to as really exclusive one..

...one of important features of all his music lies herein – it is practically impossible to perceive it in a contemplative, alienated way. Because it carries not only the atmosphere, feeling, space – but also a certain thought, question, message. Sometimes simple and clear, but often – encoded, hidden in complicated constructions and strong (as they seem from outside) emotions.

Romuald Twardowski composes in 2006 "Kyivska" Liturgy – and dedicates it exactly to the chamber choir "Kyiv". Such honor and attention could not remain without an answer – consequently, as it could be expected, the choir became the performer of the Liturgy... This is, sure, a good record – transparently soft and strong at the same time.

...In the end, gratitude – is virtually the best thing that real, inspired creativity is able to bring to life. And in this case – it does bring it, because lights of the artist and the performers have met in harmony...

It seems to me that it is just impossible to pass by that rest, internal force and freedom that sound in his works. Confidently – but not boldly, nobly – but without boasting, posturing. Music by Sylvestrov practically always causes the feeling as though he stands in front of the face of eternity with his head uncovered but raised – and you, the listener, at these moments stand next to him...

It is quite enough to just listen attentively to any pieces by Stankovych, from chamber to symphonic ones – and there are no longer any doubts: this man enriched not a nation – but humanity – with his creativity. The feeling is absolutely clear – the spaces that live in music by Stankovych breathe real grandeur.

When the author perceives interpretation of his/her own works as an accomplished one – it does testify to something. And Valentyn Silvestrov referred to the interpretation by the ensemble "Kyiv Soloists" exactly in those terms. From now on, you also have the opportunity to listen to this concert, to hear, feel, perceive, penetrate into it...

Отличный диск, искренне рекомендую. Уровень записи на 5. Напряженная и, в то же время, философская музыка разбавляется красивыми гармониями. Отлично передано нюансирование сложной для исполнения музыки Сильвестрова.

Впервые познакомился с творчеством В.Сильвестрова по диску "Мелодии" – «Симфония №5» (1982г). Очень понравилось. Яркий образец современной классической музыки. Причем «абсолютной», поскольку услышал там «все», и с каждым прослушиванием все больше. Сразу же возникло желание послушать другие произведения этого интересного композитора, тем более что на конверте они упоминались. Но, увы с тех пор ничего попадалось. И вот, наконец «Медитация» (1972г). Тоже очень достойное произведение, хотя не такое многоплановое как «Симфония». Единственное что напрягает, это высокий уровень записанного сигнала, приблизительно на 6дб больше чем обычно пишется на CD. Из-за этого появляется жесткость в звучании, и как следствие, недостижимость эффекта медитирования.
