Eivind Ringstads Debut "Correspondances" for Rubicon Classics

Correspondances was fall 2020 released on CD for Rubicon Classics, the album takes its name from the title-track/piece Correspondances of which I wrote back in 2018 and later revised for this recording.

I am very lucky to have this piece recorded by David Meiier and Eivind Ringstad, an amazing duo with such deep understanding and curiosity for the music they are playing.

“Nature is a temple in which living pillars sometimes emit confused words, man walks through forests of symbols which looks at him with understanding eyes.” — Charles Baudelaire, William Aggeler, The Flowers of Evil (Fresno, CA: Academy Library Guild, 1954)

The piece was commissioned by Royal Philharmonic Society and BBC3, premiered at the Queens Hall in Edinburgh the 17th of August by Eivind Ringstad and David Meiier during the Edinburgh International Festival and broacasted live at BBC3.

Correspondances was recorded in Snape, Maltings at Britten Studios in Fall 2019 by Eivind Ringstad and David Meiier under the label Rubicon Classics, to be released in Fall 2020. (Fall 2019)
