Born in Rome in 1983, Clara Iannotta is particularly interested in music as an existential, physical experience music should be seen as well as heard.
This is one of the reasons why she sometimes prefers to talk about the choreography of the sound rather than about orchestration.
Clara Iannottas compositions do not tell a story, but rather develop a physiognomy. They nurture sensory spaces in which the ear, figuratively speaking, can wander and contemplate. Spaces that open up beneath a surface like the deep sea beneath the surface of the ocean. Spaces that contain something hidden that indirectly, as a reflex, reaches to the outside world.
Performing on this new recording are Wilhem Latchoumia, LInstant Donne, Klangforum Wien, Munchener Kammerorchester, WDR Sinfonieorchester Koln, Michael Wendeberg, Aurelien Azan Zielinski, Enno Poppe and Clemens Schuldt.
