Heinz Holliger - Lauds and Lamentations: Music of Elliott Carter and Isang Yun

The peerless artistry of Heinz Holliger � unchallenged as the world�s greatest oboist � and of his immensely gifted colleagues Thomas Zehetmair, Thomas Demenga and Ruth Killius, is applied to the music of two of the greatest composers of modern times. Elliott Carter (born 1908) and Isang Yun (1917-1995) stand as paradigms of artistic independence, composers of defiant originality, parallel figures in the West and the East.
