A monographic CD devoted to Matthias Pintscher’s compositions from 1991 to 2004. All pieces contained in the album were written for solo piano but Lieder und Schneebilder, for soprano and piano on texts by the poet and artist E.E. Cummings. As Alfonso Alberti writes in the liner notes “... Ten years passed from the beginning of the nineties and the explosions of Monumento I and Tableau-Miroir, in which the sound almost coagulates into volcanic material, before Lieder und Schneebilder and then On a clear day. In these more recent pieces the sonorous material appears thicker in its intangible, aeriform state; yet a thousand signs tell us that under-behind-beside it, that alter ego persists that we know best, that body, that sound from which in some way the immaterial has been able to escape”.
