A superb
piece by the magnificent
Kaija Saariaho completed
in 1990. Oi Kuu
translated as for a moon
is set for Bass Clarinet
and Cello with a duration
of approximatley 6
minutes. It signalled a
brief period between two
large orchestral works,
Du Cristal and A La Fumee
and consists of
multiphonies created and
encountered between Bass
Clarinet and Cello. Full
of colour, it is
typically expressive with
unusual sounds and manual
effects. Oi Kuu was
commissioned by Kari
Kriikku and Anssi
Karkttunen and has been
dedicated to them. A
version for Bass Flute
and Cello is available on
KP00533.
