Description:
The title of this piano work, written on the occasion of Pierre Boulez's 90th birthday, refers to the American painter Barnett Newman, one of the abstract expressionists of the 20th century.
In his famous essay "The Sublime is Now", Newman wrote in 1947:
"The image we produce is the self-understanding of a revelation, real and concrete, an image that can be understood by all who do not look at it through the nostalgic spectacles of history."
This music becomes an emphatic experience as soon as one dares to try to forget one's playing and listening experience and personal conditioning as far as possible.
