An album featuring works by Witold Roman Lutosławski, one of the representative composers of the Polish School of music that gained recognition in Europe, particularly in Germany, since the 1950s. This album was likely released in the early to mid-1970s. A1, "Trois poèmes d’Henri Michaux" (Three Poems by Henri Michaux), is a three-part suite for chorus and orchestra. It draws listeners into a mysterious sonic world crafted by the interplay between the poems and the orchestra. A2, "Postludium," offers a short yet fantastical soundscape imbued with a sense of floating. B1, "Streichquartett," is a string quartet piece performed by the LaSalle Quartet, known for their renditions of works by John Cage and Claude Debussy. This piece unfolds with rich dynamics and a mysterious atmosphere, with the strings' melodies floating through the sonic space, creating a deep and captivating musical realm. Highly recommended.
