This three disc box set is a comprehensive overview of Sciarrino's orchestral music from the last thirty years. Not to be missed.
The eight works in Kairos's collection span more than 30 years of Salvatore Sciarrino's development, yet what strikes one about these pieces is how the basic elements of his beguiling sound world have remained constant through that period. The earliest music here is the Variazioni for cello and orchestra, composed in 1974, when Sciarrino was 27, and which already inhabits his familiar landscape of whispered, fragile textures. In Sciarrino's best music, the gestures seem like whispers, yet speak with great confidence and power. Frammento e Adagio for flute and orchestra, from 1991, suspends the flute's breathy rhapsodising over glowering orchestral textures, while Allegria della Notte introduces another element of his musical personality: an obsession with revisiting the music of the past, in this case Mendelssohn's violin concerto.

I've adopted interzone's method of using a split 7z archive. Best in his own words: "Packed as a contiguous zip inside a multi-part 7z, served by RS…"
I do hope that this will put a stop to all my archive woes.
