Once again, Ensemble Aventure presents a jewel of new music that has so far been little known in Europe within it's series of works by Latin American composers on WERGO: "Flores blancas", chamber and ensemble music by the Argentine composer Mariano Etkin. Listeners are captivated by the raw power of "La naturaleza de las cosas", the title of which is an apt characterization of Mariano Etkin's compositional language, which is a celebration of the sensuous nature of sounds and of the human senses as a source of knowledge without illusions, realized with a small number of "sound objects" that appear and fade away with a sense of both beauty and pain. Each of the eight works (from 1992 to 2016, Etkin's late compositional period) on this recording focuses in it's own way on the physicality of sounds and the foundations of human existence. In his last years, Etkin's musical language became more densely lyrical, introspective, and focused on fundamental elements of human existence such as dreams ("Sueños olvidados") or blood ("Le sangre del cuerpo") and, above all, tears ("Estudios para lágrimas"). Mariano Etkin creates authentic crystals of intensity - an unflinchingly existential music that looks into the eye of darkness, but nevertheless spreads it's wings. It sings, throbs, and shivers with excitement before dissolving in pain and beauty.
