Les Naufragées du Fol Espoir (The Castaways of the Fol Espoir), (2014)
An amazing long filmic creation combining different approaches and styles.
KARL AMADEUS HARTMANN: Das Klavierwerk = Kleine Suite I; Kleine Suite II; Toccata; Fugue; Sonatina; First Sonata; Sonata “27 April 1945” – Benedikt Koehlen, piano – Telos Music
Koehlen has the ability to address Hartmann’s steeliest and rapidest passages with a fearless concentration that is commendable, nor does he slight the dark brooding of Hartmann’s slow movements.
