Description: Liebermann is one of the most attractive and interesting composers, increasingly well-represented on disc thanks particularly to this label, out there today. His music is approachable without being facile and makes use of many aspects of classical traditon to synthesize a unique personal form. The 1988 clarinet work is full of lyrical melodies, shimmering textures which alternates between sensuous lyricism and virtuosity while the 1990 piano quintet adds, in its Allegro brutale finale, intense, wild anger to the mix. The description of the songs makes us wish that there were texts since they, and Liebermann's response to them, appear to be of greater than average interest. No texts. David Korevaar (piano), Patrick Mason (baritone), Jon Manasse (clarinet), Elizabeth Kipper, Margaret Soper Gutierrez (violins), Matthew Dane (viola), Thomsa Heinrich (cello).
