Mivos Quartet, Hong Kong New Music Ensemble, inFLUX Flute and Harp, KLK String Orchestra - Stephen Yip: By Moonflowers

With this album, Yip presents a colourful and vibrant spectrum of compositional diversity, masterfully interpreted by the Mivos Quartet, inFlux Flute and Harp, the Hong Kong New Music Ensemble, and the KLK String Orchestra under the baton of Roman Kreslenko. Stephen Yip has an extraordinary way of creating a post-Darmstadtian modernism that incorporates his Chinese roots with a subtlety that gives us a vivid experience of the inner colours of an advanced spatial sense. It leaves us with a feeling of focused tranquility. He is a genuine voice in new music today - Gapplegate Classical-Modern Music Review.
