• Manufacturer: CD • Manufacturer Part Number: CDBY 176425 • SKU: 9546727 • UPC: 8721364011298 • Shipping: $1.24 • Description: Piazza Pia, improvisations with piety and love of the past Oene van Geel - violin, viola Ig Henneman - viola Alex Waterman - cello Wilbert de Joode- contrabass Emile Wennekes A sweet, serene harbour. Fishing boats to the left of the pier are busy moaring. To the right houses, palazzotti, four or five stories high, even some modest apartment buildings. Welcome to Anzio, a small Italian city 60 kilometers south of Rome. A place where sunsets are burnt orange and the water flows sparkling silver. Legend has it that it was founded by Anteo, the son born of Odysseus and Circe after their one night of love for which the sorceress relinquished her magical powers. This fishing village sets the scene for a first CD by the Henneman String Quartet in its new formation. Ig Henneman (1945) coined the improvisational concept for her new ensemble here. It is also here that she wrote the composed pieces found on Piazza Pia, named after the main square in Anzio, a place dominated by a Renaissance church structured by two tympans and a modest row of columns. Italy, Renaissance Italy in particular, plays a crucial role in Henneman's works. First and foremost metaphorically, due to her appreciation of music history in its entirety. As a classically trained string player as well as a passionate improviser, Henneman respects cultural history not merely for its museal worth but rather in its own vital and timeless element. She accentuates her respect by using ancient music as the very heartbeat for her own contemporary concepts. Compare this to Renaissance man, conscious as he was of clinging to the coattails of the giants of antiquity, this to further his own contemporary horizons. Thereby, quotes and paraphrases of Italian Renaissance repertoire afford music history an even literal role of great importance in Henneman's work. The string quartet has often been compared in romantic notion to a conversation between four rather stately gentleman. Listening to the Henneman String Quartet one rarely hears anything verbally distinguished. Rather, a restless discourse of emotional turbulence and percussive intensity, quickly followed by moments of loving sentiment and harmony: breaking up, making up. This music seeks the synthese sought by Claudio Monteverdi in his 8th volume of madrigals: Madrigali, guerrieri et amorosi, madrigals of love and war. It is therefore far from coincidental that one of the numbers of the CD, Non Oso, is directly inspired by one of the profane madrigals in the aforesaid volume; Ardo, e scoprir ahi lasso, io non ardisco. But Monteverdi is not instantaneously evident in this piece for double bass, cello and viola. It is only after a handful of descending flights of notes that the historical contours of Monterverdi become clear. There is a peep into his world in Non Oso, a slight parting of the curtain of centuries, followed by a somewhat cynical wink before the curtain sweeps shut. Once again we stand in the present time during a busy pizzicato... |
