Toelichting:
Program note (English): (Première: 21-12-2005 - Wigmore Hall, London - Alexander Baillie, 'cello and James Lisney, piano). Although no mention of Beethoven is made in the music, his ominous shadow was always lurking over my shoulders, challenging me to write music worthy of his example. In particular the power of dialogue, which the musicians projected so convincingly in their ensemble playing, was a constant preoccupation in the design of my own music. On the other hand I did include a homage to Iannis Xenakis, who was one of my great inspirations in the sixties and seventies, however many reservations I harbour about his music since. In particular his composition 'Eonta' (1964) was an ear-opener at the time and a quotation from it marks the opening of the Coda. It is not difficult to spot other references to his language, but they are generally ambushed in a host of other allusions to my musical heritage. The overall design of Anatomy is much more a fruit of Debussy's last works, such as the violin-and cello sonatas, some preludes and etudes. - JAN VRIEND
