Come In! With the exception of the first movement of Arvo Pärt's Tabula Rasa, the works on this recording explore themes of quiet and introspection. The Kremerata Baltica performs exquisitely and seem to do so effortlessly. Interesting, too, the titles of the pieces lend themselves to images of intimacy -- titles Company, Come In!, and Darf Ich (German for "May I"). The overall effect, however, is one of peacefulness.

| Kremer Plays Schnittke CD (1994)
Gidon Kremer Conductor
$20.95 Deutsche Grammophon's sound is remarkably good capturing all the fun beautifully Schnittke's exhilarating early piece Quasi una sonata as well is equally experimental requiring the violin soloist Kremer to extract sounds from his instrument Stradivari never intended. No performer championed the work of the late Russian composer Alfred Schnittke more than violinist Gidon Kremer. In the opening Concerto Grosso No.1 for instance three centuries of Classical and Popular musical styles collide to humorous and at times chilling effect. Here Kremer and colleagues offer a diverse sampling of Schnittke's work that will interest both those familiar and unfamiliar with this fascinating and influential composer.
