About

Three works for large chamber ensemble by Hamburg based composer Gerald Eckert are collected here. His music places demands on the interpreter to produce the greatest possible array of timbral values and dynamic range, ones that encroach on the border of what is performable in terms of technical ability. Eckert’s music operates on the edges of sound, between extremes, ranging from stillness, almost silence, to explosion. In his music, nothingness and abundance are two sides of the same coin. Gerald Eckert, (b. 1960), studied composition with Nicolaus A. Huber and electronic composition with Dirk Reith. He conducts his own music here with ensemble reflexion K of Hamburg.
