"I first met Stefano Scodanibbio in 1986. What first impressed me about him and his music was that he seemed a determined young man, equally proficient on the double bass or as composer, a rare breed in the world of music of those days. His style was a very individual one, not following traditional avant-garde trends but exploring his own very special world of string harmonics. As a composer, Stefano was an individual voice in our new music world. He was a friend and fellow musician, who is sorely missed by us and all that knew him." --Irvine Arditti Performed by: Arditti Quartet

ANGELICA 033CD
|
2015 release. Stefano Scodanibbio (1956-2012) was one of the great contrabassists of recent times. A long-time associate of Luigi Nono and Terry Riley. Active both as an interpreter -- composers who wrote for him include Scelsi, Sciarrino, Bussotti, Xenakis, Ferneyhough... and as an improviser. This memorial CD brings together an extraordinary program of previously unreleased pieces performed with maverick figures such as Terry Riley (synth), Rohan de Saran (cello), Garth Knox (viola), Mike Svobda (trombone), Tristan Honsinger (cello), Frances-Marie Uitti (cello), Bruce Ackley (soprano sax), and Michael Kiedaisch (percussion). This is rich and tactile music with hyperreal attention to details of microtonality and timbre.
