Olari EltsAbout
The album begins with her à travers for ensemble, which attracted much attention at the 1998 International Rostrum for Composers in Paris, and progresses through more recent works including Lijnen, with the wonderful voice of Arianna Savall singing the words of Belgian poet Roland Jooris, Öö (‘Night’) with the Stockholm Saxophone Quartet, and nec ros, nec pluvia with the Silesian String Quartet. Both these last two groups premiered the pieces they perform on the CD.
Tulve has been closely associated with Estonia’s creative chamber group the NYYD Ensemble over the last decade and they deliver committed performances of her work – among them abysses for two flutes and ensemble, and cendres – under the direction of its founder, outstanding young conductor Olari Elts. He is now becoming well-known in Britain for his performances with the Scottish Chamber Orchestra of which he is Principal Guest Conductor.
The NYYD (meaning ‘now’) Ensemble was named after the international festival of new music in Tallinn founded by Erkki-Sven Tüür, and gave its first performances in 1993.
