About

This new recording of recent music for solo piano is played by one of the most interesting and unconventional pianists of his generation, See Siang Wong, an artist who has studied the works on this CD with the composers themselves, and is the pianist for whom Rudolf Kelterborn wrote two of his Piano Pieces. The authenticity of the performances on this record cannot be improved upon. The pianist’s insight and technical virtuosity, allied to his complete musical understanding, make these performances by See Siang Wong of the greatest significance to admirers of modern music. The sound quality is virtually state-of-the-art. The music itself covers a wide range of expression, from the panoramas of Emmanuel Nunes to the expressive miniatures of Rudolf Kelterborn. A magnificent record.

Listen to this disc and you’ll hear how beautiful new music can be. Cerebral, yes, but moving and spiritual, too...This is such inventive music, constantly moving and feeling its way. If you like Debussy, and Takemitsu, this is for you...Wong’s playing is lucid. He understands the way the work [Litanies] evolves, from dominant and upfront to barely audible.

Wong is a specialist at playing hyper-difficult new music and is skilled in performing from an open score; that much is apparent in his handling of the two pieces of Nunes entitled Litanies du feu et de la mer...Wong is equipped with ample ability to perform such scores effectively, and in the Kelterborn his work can be regarded as at least authoritative and possibly definitive.
