Erik Kaltoft (piano, celesta)About
Despite being a competent pianist, Borup-Jørgensen’s output for the instrument was surprisingly small, but he wrote for the instrument throughout entire career. The works on this programme represent an overview of his works for solo piano, spanning nearly fifty years, from the early Passacaglia for piano Op.2b (1948) to the crystalline raindrop interludes Op.144 (1994). Borup-Jørgensen’s writing for the piano is remarkably consistent, favouring exquisitely crafted phrases over virtuoso displays, but this music is by no means simple; these incredibly detailed scores require the utmost concentration from the player!
Erik Kaltoft is the ideal interpreter for this demanding repertoire. Boasting an impressive resume as a contemporary music specialist, with the first performances of more than 200 works by such composers as Per Nørgård, Gunnar Berg and Bent Lorentzen to his credit, Kaltoft was also the composer’s friend and frequent collaborator for almost 45 years. For those listeners seeking an entry point into Borup-Jørgensen’s musical universe, Kaltoft’s deeply sympathetic interpretations reveal the jewel-like precision, and passionate nature-mysticism to be found in his work.
