*2024 stock* Sergio Armaroli is certainly considerable among the most important musicians on the contemporary scene. An unparalleled performer in his own right, this monographic disc gives us some of his most important chamber masterpieces while offering a glimpse into his compositional output that is no less than the many composers he has found himself interpreting during his long career. The musicians who take part in this composite project are of the highest caliber, such as Irvine Arditti who lends his violin to the piece Cave Carmen or again Eriko Sumi, violin and Heidemarie Wiesner, baritone who in Ballade von den Salbsthelfern offer us one of the author's absolute most lyrical and intimate moments. A disc that not only reveals Armaroli's innate genius as a creator, but also adds an important piece to the history of contemporary music.
