Customer Reviews:

A superb introduction to Messiaen's music........1998-12-19

The importance of Messiaen's music is nowhere more exemplified than in the recordings by his student and champion, Pierre Boulez. Written for the victims of fascism and war, 'Et Exspecto Ressurectionem Mortuorum' is a profound essay on the struggles and horrors of war. His total non-use of counterpoint and fiercely dramatic dynamic and ensemble contrasts are analogous to the struggle and anemia of war. And Boulez, with his exacting clarity and flair for making accessible the most seemingly inaccessible music, is the perfect guide for this draining, cathartic work. With Messiaen himself supervising the recording, this recording will appeal to Messiaen-lovers and modern-music-shy listeners alike.
