Meyer: The Very Best Of [CD]

This two-disc album brings together archival recordings of works composed over a span of 43 years. Performed by outstanding artists, the collection invites listeners on a journey through the stylistic transformations of 20th- and 21st-century music as reflected in the output of one of Poland's most eminent composers-from early avant-garde, sonoristic experiments to a deeply personal renewal of traditional musical languages. Excerpts from symphonies, chamber works, piano and cello concertos, and songs offer just a glimpse into a rich creative legacy, in which refined form becomes a powerful vehicle for emotional expression.
