Info for Ivanovs: Vocalises

Die Vokalisen von Janis Ivanovs, gesungen vom dem mit einem Grammy ausgezeichneten Latvian Radio Choir, werden mit diesem Album zum ersten Mal weltweit veröffentlicht. Ivanovs, der vielleicht größte lettische Symphoniker, schrieb die Vokalisen ab Mitte der 1960er Jahre bis ein Jahr vor seinem Tod. Sie sind von der herbstlichen, elegischen Stimmung geprägt, die für seine späteren Werke charakteristisch ist.

Als Klanglandschaften mit phantasievoll programmatischen Titeln erinnern die Vokalisen an eine Reihe von Kompositionen aus Ivanovs Jugendzeit (symphonische Gemälde, Sololieder, Bearbeitungen von Volksliedern), die ebenfalls der Natur seiner Heimat und ihrer Schönheit, Heiligkeit und ihrem Geheimnis gewidmet waren. In gewisser Weise bilden sie einen Bogen, der das Ende seines Lebens mit seinem Anfang verbindet.

Im Vergleich zu den früheren Werken haben die Vokalisen jedoch die heitere Ausgeglichenheit und Erleuchtung, die sich aus der Betrachtung des Lebens und der Welt aus größerer Distanz ergibt.

Latvian Radio Choir
Sigvards Klava, Leitung




The Latvian Radio Choir (LRC)
ranks among the top professional chamber choirs in Europe and its refined taste for musical material, fineness of expression and vocal of unbelievably immense compass have charted it as a noted brand on the world map. The repertoire of LRC ranges from the Renaissance music to the most sophisticated scores by modern composers; and it could be described as a sound laboratory – the singers explore their skills by turning to the mysteries of traditional singing, as well as to the art of quartertone and overtone singing and other sound production techniques. The choir has established a new understanding of the possibilities of a human voice; one could also say that the choir is the creator of a new choral paradigm: every singer is a distinct individual with his or her own vocal signature and roles in performances.

Sigvards Kļava
is one of the most outstanding Latvian conductors, also a professor of conducting and producer, music director of the Latvian Radio Choir since 1992. As a result of Sigvards Klava’s steady efforts, the Latvian Radio Choir has become an internationally recognized, vocally distinctive collective, where each singer possesses a creative individuality. Under Sigvards’ guidance, the choir has recorded a number of choral works by little known or completely forgotten composers of the past, as well as formed a friendly collaboration with a number of notable Latvian composers. Sigvards Klava is a professor at the Jazeps Vitols Latvian Academy of Music. Klava is a multiple winner of the Latvian Great Music Award.
