This is a wonderful collection of klezmer music, inspired by the Jewish dances and songs of the klezmorim from Eastern Europe - from the lyrical HORA to the fast, compelling FREILACH. Some of the pieces have a second part ad libitum - for playingtogether or for variation in a repeat. For the accompaniment, chord symbols have been added and on the included CD there are complete versions as well as play-along versions of all pieces, played live by genuine klezmer musicians.

Een prachtige verzameling klezmermuziek, ge nspireerd op de joodse dansen en liederen van de klezmorim uit Oost-Europa: van de lyrische Hora tot de snelle, meeslepende Freilach. Ook de invloed van de nieuwere Israëlische volksmuziek la Giora Feidman is hoorbaar. Sommige stukken hebben een tweede stem ad libitum - voor samenspel of ter afwisseling bij herhaling. Voor de begeleiding zijn akkoordsymbolen toegevoegd - en op de bijgevoegde cd staan van alle stukken mooie demo- én play-along-versies, die live zijn ingespeeld door rasechte klezmermuzikanten.

The piece was commissioned by a colleague Brett Dean of the Berliner Philharmoniker, the violist Walter Kussner, as part of a CD project with works for solo viola in 1998/99. Since then, the composer himself has played it himself countless times in concerts andlectures. Here it is now in a congenial adaptation for cello. The title Intimate Decisions comes from a painting by Dean's wife, theAustralian painter Heather Betts, and indicates the private nature of the music. According to Dean, writing a piece for a solo string instrument was strangely similar to writing a personal letter or an intense conversation with a close friend. The piece begins with a short series of individual intervals of a rather intangible character, followed by a more emphatic motif of a minor sixth and minor ninth, and later a chain of harmonies whirring down the lower strings. The various developing characters go through an increasingly decisive, ultimately dramatic conversation, in rhapsodic alternation with flighty virtuosity, but also calm and delicacy, only to fade away like an echo at the end.
