Marilyn Nonken (piano) plays 'Triadic memories'. The place Triadic memories takes us is full of illusions, not only of function and direction but also of timelessness and stasis. Recorded from the pianist's perspective, it gives the listener the unique opportunity to hear all of the small nuances and overtones which can be lost in the concert hall. There is no indication of tempo. For this recording, Ms. Nonken chose a steady eighth-note pulse throughout that approximates the heart rate at rest. Unfolding in time at this rate, the work's geography - its rapturous peaks and long, low valleys - is brought into relief. The DVD is presented in uncompressed, high-resolution 96khz / 24-bit stereo, playable on any DVD player. Bonus only on the DVD : a video interview of Marilyn Nonken speaking about Triadic memories. This DVD is playable on all DVD players.
