Ørjan Matre and Rolf Borch
A fascinating double portrait of the young composer Ørjan Matre and the
excellent clarinetist Rolf Borch. Matre and Borch explore the clarinet in a
variety of settings: all alone, in small chamber settings and finally in a
fully fledged concerto with Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra under Juanjo
Mena's baton.
This is Matre' first complete album release. It displays his nuanced sense
of sound and colour, found both in his solo pieces, chamber music and the
orchestral writing. Matre expertly employs twentieth century techniques for
moulding acoustic sounds, adding his own personal twist. In Rolf Borch
these sounds find a conscientious interpreter. He shapes and communicates
the music with a modest self-assuredness that does not intrude upon it.
