Joanna Wozny – brown, fizzled out (2013/2014) for ensemble

Ensemble Ascolta
Jonathan Stockhammer, conductor

‘brown, fizzled out’ and other works by Joanna Woźny bring music which is fragmented, elusive, and constantly evolving, drawing vitality from everyday noise. Her compositions blur the lines between sound and noise, sense and abstraction, dissolving structure into ongoing process. Each piece becomes an open inquiry into presence, perception, and the delicate links between inner and outer worlds.

“I don’t like museums, I like works to be alive… That’s also our role, to push boundaries, to shake things up a bit.” – Alexandre Tharaud

Kaun – Symphony No. 3, Symphonic poems: Minnehaha, Hiawatha

Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin
Jonathan Stockhammer, conductor

“Balanced tempi which are not mechanically maintained, subtle rubati in appropriate places, a lyrical approach, careful realisation of articulation and a consistently well-balanced orchestral sound testify to the fact that Hugo Kaun has found a capable and prudent advocate in Jonathan Stockhammer.” – Klassik Heute

“The Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin delivers an absolute tour de force in these lush orchestral movements under the direction of the American conductor Jonathan Stockhammer. The sound is very uniform and rounded, sometimes powerful, sometimes soft and delicate, the development always very natural.” – Klassik.com
