Alpha is starting a collaboration with this innovative group and now presents it's very first album, recorded in 2018 and consisting of music by (and inspired by) Gustav Mahler: No Time for Chamber Music, a nod to Luciano Berio's Sinfonia, inspired in it's turn by Mahler's Second Symphony. Mahler himself often quoted his own works, and his rich instrumental textures have provided a source of inspiration for composers and arrangers alike. The program begins with two works drawn from his First Symphony: Comme un bruit de la nature (Like a sound of Nature) and L'Enterrement du chasseur (The hunter's burial), inspired by a woodcut by the nineteenth-century artist Moritz von Schwind in which the animals mourn the death of the hunter. The ensemble's double bass player, Thibault Bertin-Maghit, made the arrangements, while Philippe Hersant has written a Fantaisie based on fragments from a number of works by Mahler.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"New \/ CD \/ No Time for Chamber Music Alpha","offer_id":47237371429172,"sku":"ALLP770.2","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/7436\/1652\/files\/3998718-2751125.jpg?v=1768321340","url":"https:\/\/www.fye.com\/products\/collectif9-no-time-for-chamber-music_aec-allp770-2","provider":"FYE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
