Peter Ruzicka has made a tremendous impact on the world of music for decades, not only as a general director (among others, at the Salzburg Festival, Hamburg State Opera and the Munich Biennale) but also as a high demand internationally as a conductor and composer. On July 3, 2018 Peter Ruzicka celebrated his 70th birthday. This CD, the seventh featuring his music in the NEO catalog, is being released to honor this occasion. The Minguet Quartet won the 2010 ECHO Klassik Award for its complete recording of string quartets by Ruzicka (Nos. 1-6 at the time). This CD is a logical and perhaps necessary continuation of the series: In addition to String Quartet No. 7 -- which, at over 40 minutes in length is far more extensive than its predecessors -- it includes "CLOUDS 2" for string quartet and orchestra conducted by the composer. Ruzicka says that in this work he was guided by the image of music that is searching for a sound which he has never himself heard before, and which has never previously occurred in all his works.
