Product Description
Since the film was first screened ECM has been deluged with requests for a soundtrack album, so we are making this available simultaneously. Where the film shows the process of music-making, "Sounds and Silence: Music for a Film" includes the music in its completed/produced form. There are two exciting exceptions - tracks from Eleni Karaindrou and orchestra live in concert in Frankfurt with Jan Garbarek and Kim Kashkashian as guests - these pieces have not previously been available on CD.
Review
""Music has no fixed place", says Manfred Eicher, to whom Sounds and Silence is dedicated. With his record label, ECM Records, Eicher has promoted modern music like few others. The film shows him at work, travelling the world, recording Arvo Pärt in Talinn, Nik Bärtsch in France, Angleopoulos composer Eleni Karaindrou in Athnes. Eicher always remains at the sidelines, yet appears to be the true centre of musical proceedings, focussing, listening, observing, unapproachable and, at times, a little demonic. He knows what he wants and gets it. A Sisyphian task. " -- Suddeutsche Zeitung.
From the Artist
Over a period of five years, Swiss filmmakers Norbert Wiedmer and Peter Guyer followed producer Manfred Eicher and the artists of ECM around the world. In footage from Estonia, Tunisia, Germany, France, Denmark, Greece, Argentina and elsewhere, their documentary movie "Sounds and Silence", has captured aspects of the music-making process at ECM, and provided glimpses of unique players and composers at work. Amongst the artists included: Arvo Pärt, Eleni Karaindrou, Dino Saluzzi and Anja Lechner, Anouar Brahem, Gianluigi Trovesi and Gianni Coscia, Marilyn Mazur, Nik Bärtsch's Ronin, Kim Kashkashian, Jan Garbarek and others.Bonus material on the DVD and Blu-Ray includes scenes from Manu Katché's recording of "Playground" in New York City.
Liner notes are by filmmakers Guyer and Wiedmer. An excerpt: The Edition of Contemporary Music is in the realm of sound what Hans Magnus Enzensberger's "Andere Bibliothek", published by Eichborn, is in the realm of words: a sponsor of the intelligent and the extraordinary. Manfred Eicher represents music that refuses to be merely consumed and musicians with colourful lives, convictions and outstanding abilities. This is the world we want our audience to see and hear. In the era of casting shows and drawing-board stars, videoclip inflation, audio pollution and commercial omnipresence, we want to present music in different pictures and images in different sounds, create visual worlds, not string together snapshots, explore single notes, not reproduce instant sounds - and provide space for silence, too. Not showcase a finished product but accompany the birth of music, study its conditions and figure out its meaning: discovering people, following moods, finding explanations, capturing sounds - and summarizing the details in a larger whole, a concerted journey through landscapes of sound."
