Terry Riley, La Monte Young, Steve Reich et Philip Glass, tous américains, sont considérés comme les pionniers de ce courant. Si beaucoup de ces compositeurs contestent l’étiquette minimaliste, réductrice à leurs yeux, leur approche se rejoint dans la recherche de nouvelles structures musicales, comme l’emploi de motifs répétitifs, une certaine forme de dépouillement et l’emploi de certains procédés spécifiques (la technique de « phasing » de Reich, utilisant simultanément des enregistrements avec un léger décalage). Les minimalistes ont intégré de nombreuses influences pour nourrir leur travail, le jazz et l’improvisation pour Terry Riley, la mouvance expérimentale pour La Monte Young, la musique indienne pour Philip Glass, les cultures africaines pour Steve Reich.

  • Toccata Classics TOCC0024 Notes
    P JULIUS RÖNTGEN, CHAMBER MUSIC, VOLUME ONE – WORKS FOR VIOLIN AND PIANO I by Malcolm MacDonald Considering his prominence in the development of Dutch concert music, and that he was considered by many of his most distinguished contemporaries to possess a compositional talent bordering on genius, the neglect that enveloped the huge output of Julius Röntgen for nearly seventy years after his death seems well-nigh inexplicable, or explicable only to the kind of aesthetic view that had heard of him as stylistically conservative, and equated conservatism as uninteresting and therefore not worth investigating. The recent revival of interest in his works has revealed a much more complex picture, which may be further filled in by the contents of the present CD. A distant relative of the physicist Conrad Röntgen,1 the discoverer of X-rays, Röntgen was born in 1855 into a highly musical family in Leipzig, a city with a musical tradition that stretched back to J. S. Bach himself in the first half of the eighteenth century, and that had been a byword for musical excellence and eminence, both in performance and training, since Mendelssohn’s directorship of the Gewandhaus Orchestra and the Leipzig Conservatoire in the 1830s and ’40s. Röntgen’s violinist father Engelbert, originally from Deventer in the Netherlands, was a member of the Gewandhaus Orchestra and its concert-master from 1873. Julius’ German mother was the pianist Pauline Klengel, sister of the composer Julius Klengel (father of the cellist-composer of the same name), who became his nephew’s principal tutor; the whole family belonged to the circle around the composer and conductor Heinrich von Herzogenberg and his wife Elisabet, whose twin passions were the revival of works by Bach and the music of their close friend Johannes Brahms.
