Sofia Gubaidulina: The Deceitful Face of Hope and of Despair (2005)

[@ralphmadach55]

Für mich nach Schostakowitsch die größte Komponistin unseres Jahrhunderts!

[@markleneker9923]

I admire her orchestration and eclecticism.

[@georgekraft1401]

I really love Sofia. Her music sings to my soul!

Концерт для флейты с большим оркестром "Меж ликом надежды и ликом отчаяния". Thank you!

Mike Sarafyan Wrong translation!

Between.

[@konstkaras]

Both names are official and not that different, so I guess it's no need to change.

[@andreizavodskikh6770]

The score gives "Меж ликом Надежды и ликом отчаяния".

Wow, this is gorgeous. I'm particularly loving the low, slow section about 2/3 of the way in...

[@ОсауленкоАнатоль]

Super!!!

[@river595]

thank you so much for sharing!

[@urswaechter]

This is one of her best concertos (together with Introitus, Offertorium, In Tempus Praesens).

[@didierschein8515]

And the concerto for viola.

[@kuang-licheng402]

It was a bit challenging to write a concerto between a flute, which is rather a tiny insrtument, and a large orchestra. Using techniques which sometimes remember antiphony, Sofia Gubaidulina successes fully in that.

[@SaccidanandaSadasiva]

Oh yes!!

[@jimrader5299]

strings sound like a knife being sharpened

Agonizingly depressing and not a little boring. So slow with uninteresting harmonies, tired instrumental effects. Did she lose her way on this one?
