Various Artists, Reinbert Evers

Featuring: Ulrich Leyendecker, Hubert Meister, Rolf Riehm, Thomas Lauck

condition (record/cover): NM / NM

The German guitarist Reinbert Evers devoted much of his career to new music, and this 1984 recital on Pro Viva gathers four works by German composers: Ulrich Leyendecker's Verso Parsifal, Hubert Meister's Modis contrariis, Rolf Riehm's Notturno für die trauerlos Sterbenden (nocturne for those who die unmourned) and Thomas Lauck's Suite für Gitarre.

Riehm's piece, short and pointed, is the most striking, from a composer who never separated music from political conscience. A good document of the German guitar repertoire of the period, far from Spanish clichés.
