Unforeseen possibilities of the double bass<\/p>\n
Bj\u00f8rn Ianke was one of those musicians who are always developing, always searching for new ways of expression. Throughout his professional career he worked very hard to expand his own capabilities and gain more repertoire for the solo double bass. Ianke\u00b4s eminent technique, his great heart for the instrument and intuitive musical understanding was an inspiration to many composers. Arne Nordheim, Antonio Bilbao and Cecilie Ore are among the people who have written especially for Ianke, challenged and intrigued by the unforeseen possibilities this instrument acquired in his hands. <\/p>\n
On this album, Ianke performs works by Arne Nordheim, \u00c5se Hedstr\u00f8m, Iannis Xenakis and Henrik Hellstenius. Poetry and drama alternate with lightning speed as the work \u201cThree Stanzas for double bass alone\u201d by Nordheim progresses, and Ianke performs Hedstr\u00f8m\u00b4s \u201cTouche for double bass\u201d with breathtaking timing and dynamic dimensions. In Xenakis\u00b4 \u201cTheraps\u201d, the massive double bass almost disappears in the hands of the performer when the brutality of the thunderous eruptions and violent passages takes centre stage, and Hellstenius\u00b4 \u201cEssays sir les temps double\u201d is performed in a manner that makes the double bass sing in a particularly lovely way.<\/p>\n
