Composer's
Note When I considered
the ensemble of eight
cellos, I first thought
of matt and dark
textures. I also wanted
to go back to some ideas
on symmetry. While I was
pondering all that, I saw
snow flakes falling from
the dark sky of the
Finnish autumn. Focusing
on the snow, the idea of
writing variations on it
and its various forms
became clearer in my
mind.Nuages de neige is a
uniform and linear
texture in which I
realise my first
impressions of that
ensemble. The two Etoiles
de neige are based on the
idea of symmetry and
repetition: the first one
develops up to a certain
point where it doubles
back as in a mirror
image, the second one
consists of eight
sections in which the
harmonic structure is
repeated, as well as a
linear gesture that
becomes ever more
present. Aguilles de
glace focuses on
different pizzicati and
superimposed ostinati.
With Fleurs de neige I
sought to recall the
texture of those harmonic
trills at the end of the
first section, although
more airy and diversified
here. Kaija Saariaho.

“Now
II†is the second
part of a triptych of
chamber pieces entitled
“Profiles of
Lightâ€. The first
part is written for solo
piano (Now I, BA 11073),
the second for
unaccompanied cello. The
two instruments are then
combined in the
concluding third part,
Uriel (BA
11013).
All three
pieces were inspired by
the Abstract
Expressionist paintings
of the American artist
Barnett Newman. Newman's
work has had a formative
impact on Matthias
Pintscher's artistic
philosophy: what does it
mean to reduce things to
essentials while seeking
maximum immediacy of
expression? Several of
Newman's paintings have a
radiant light of uncommon
intensity, yet resembling
a dark illumination. The
same sort of thing is
found in the late works
of Franz Schubert, where
a comparable profundity
and retrospective
yearning likewise shine
through the surface of
even the brightest
tonalities.
This
is a piece about
resonances, about the
inward and outward givens
of existence, about life
itself: 'I find the cello
a highly suitable
instrument for depicting
such existential
conditions'.

œElutropia is a Gemme,
in colour greene, or
grassie, in part coloured
and bespotted with Purple
speckes & bloud
coloures vaines. This is
a marvellous Jugler, for
it will cause things
object to be presented to
our eies as it listeth.
It being put into a Basan
of water chaungeth to a
mans eyesight the Sunne
his beames, and giveth
them a contrarie colour.
Being also moved and
beaten in the ayre maketh
to appeare a bloudie
Sunne, and darkneth the
ayre in the maner of an
Eclipse: and therfore it
is called Eloutropia as
you would say, the Sunne
his enimie. There is of
this name also a certain
Hearbe which Enchaunters
& Witches have
oftentimes used and doe
use, as also that above
said, whereby they have
mocked and deluded many,
which by meanes and
working and enchauntment,
have so dazzled the
beholders eies, that they
have gone by them
invisibly.†John
Maplet (died 1592) A
greene forest, or A
natural historie 1567
This text from the
clergyman, astrologer and
natural historian John
Maplet's fascinating work
in which he describes the
properties of various
gemstones is the
inspiration for this
piece. Without being
programmatic, the music
is constantly developed
to try and mimic the way
the shafts of light
mutate through the gem,
and the illusions and
magic they create.
