Gabriel Erkoreka: Works for Solo Piano

”Gabriel Erkoreka’s pianistic oeuvre occupies a prominent place within the contemporary repertoire for several reasons: its sonorous poetry, its violence, its technical complexity and its courageous commitment to colour, but also its established craftsmanship and a relationship as intense as it is ambiguous with folklore, the Central-European musical tradition and the avant-garde. In my opinion, this ability to move swiftly between different aesthetic dimensions is precisely one of the most remarkable aspects of his output.” (Alfonso Gómez)
