Touching the memory

"This selection of Silvestrov's music ... focuses on then recent pieces bearing composition dates of 1999-2007. The sequence of Postludes, Homages and Moments invariably manage to concentrate the listener's ears on their brief, deft drifts of sound, and on the correspondingly arresting moments when greater prominence is vested in the music ... Throughout, Alexei Lubimov has been the refined and elegant exponent but as a bonus we hear Silvestrov himself in the Three Waltzes ... This is not, perhaps, the place to begin a Silvestrov odyssey - the larger-scale works offer more - but this excellently played selection ... nevertheless provides contemplation, reflection and focus on concentrated fragments of time".
