Tina Reynaert - The Hour of the Wolf (2022) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

"The hour between night and dawn … when most people die, sleep is the deepest, and nightmares are the most real. It is the hour when the sleepless are haunted by their worst fears, when ghosts and demons are most powerful. The hour of the wolf is also the hour when most babies are born." - Ingmar Bergman

Tina Reynaert wants to create a platform for new piano music that has not yet been performed or discovered. The authenticity of contemporary acoustic music deserves to be recorded and reach a wider audience. "The Hour of the Wolf" is a compilation of works that she considers canonical, dating from 1990 to 2021. Tina's journey began several years ago, when she began to collect piano pieces by composers from around the world. She asked a number of them to compose a piece and dedicate it to her. Given all the new musical developments and idioms of the twentieth century (atonality, serialism, multiple serialism, spectralism, advanced techniques, …) Tina wanted to find out how composers work today.

What is your musical signature? What new works illustrate the time in which we live? What else can be added or has the power to change? This CD is an attempt to answer such questions.
