Hi Virtualshock,
Thanks for recommending this unusual music
It's actually quite meditative, almost like something from the medieval times... I even trace some Indian music somehow. The music moves ahead while a pedal tone is sounding at the bottom of this almost ritual of soft string music. The way the musicians beat the rythm on the celli is a new trick - definitely a new experience that I recommend for other listeners.
I will have to listen several times before I get used to it. I remember in the 80s when I first heard 5 pieces for orchestra by Arnold Schönberg, it took me a while to understand the music. But after a while I got so interested that I had to buy most of his stuff!
Thanks for expanding my music horizon!
Fredrik
