|||||
This album features recent works by one of the most important contemporary Finnish composers, Kaija Saariaho, performed by The Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg led by music director Marko Letonja. Two of the works, the orchestral version of Quatre instants and Émilie Suite, feature award-winning soprano Karen Vourc’h. Émilie Suite includes three songs and two orchestral interludes from Saariaho’s monodrama Opera Émilie. Quatre instants is one of Saariaho’s vocal masterpieces, a four movement song cycle reflecting various dimensions of love.
