Info zu Tiersen: Pour Amélie, Piano Music

Der französische Multiinstrumentalist Yann Tiersen (*1970) hat sich binnen weniger Jahre mit den Soundtracks zu 'Die fabelhafte Welt der Amélie' (2001) und 'Good Bye Lenin!' (2003) einen hervorragenden Namen als zeitgenössischer Komponist gemacht.

Tiersens melancholische Klangsprache mit Einflüssen aus Popmusik, Chansons, Folklore und Minimal Music ist längst auch außerhalb der Kino-Gemeinde ein Begriff und funktioniert bestens auch ohne Leinwand. Bereits 2005 nahm der »führendeVertreter des Minimalismus unserer Zeit« Jeroen van Veen einige Kompositionen Tiersens für seine »Minimal Piano Collection. Volume I-IX« (Brilliant Classics 8551) auf. Nun legt der niederländische Pianist mit den vollständigen Amélie- und Lenin-Soundtracks für Klavier zwei der originellsten und erfolgreichsten Minimal-Music-Zyklen der letzten Jahre vor. Nach Alben mit Werken von Einaudi (BCL 9452), Jacob# TV (BCL 94873) und Yiruma (BCL 95069) erweitert van Veen einmal mehr sein Repertoire um ungewöhnliches, nonkonformistisches Material. Die Aufnahmen entstanden im November 2014 in der hervorragenden Akustik des Studio 1 der Van Veen Productions im niederländischen Culemborg; das Booklet enthält von van Veen selbst verfasste Anmerkungen.
