Marilyn Crispell / Tanya Kalmanovitch / Richard Teitelbaum - Dream Libretto

Released 2018. This CD is a very personal statement from Marilyn Crispell. MEMORIA / FOR PESSA MALKA was composed as a memorial to her relatives who died in the Second World War, and to her parents, husband, and close friends who have passed on during the past several years. The five movements comprise a journey through suffering to redemption. First half of the CD is a trio with Tanya Kalmanovitch (violin) and Richard Teitelbaum (electronics), while the second half is a duo with Tanya. The seven violin/piano improvisations are not connected to the memorial piece, but they seemed to fit the ambience established by it.
