Vlastimir Trajković - Chamber Music (2021) [Official Digital Download]

Vlastimir Trajković (1947), for many years professor of composition, orchestration and Head of the Department (the Belgrade Faculty of Music) — now in retirement. Member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts. His works for solo instruments, chamber and orchestral music are performed in Serbia and abroad both by Serbian and foreign musicians and ensembles.

Spanish Suite communicates with the world of the Iberian deep-rooted antiquity. It belongs to the ‘spiritually archeological’, archaically mythological, geo-poetical fantasies, so often encountered in my work. Somewhere in the score we read En Cádiz: Dan­­­za sagrada de los Atlantes, arribados allende el Océano, – portadores de las naranjas, man­za­nas doradas de la di­­­o­sa, – y de las Hespérides, arribadas de Tartessos (In Cádiz: Sacred Dance of the Atlanteans, who arrived from the other end of the Ocean, – bringers of oranges, golden apples of the goddess, – and of Hesperides, who came from Tartessos). In another place it is heralded Te­ne­­bro­si­­dad terrible, glacial e infi­ni­ta. Una paz coercitiva. Fado sem Fa­do (Terrible darkness, glacial and infinte. A forced peace. Fate without Fate.). Textual, not musical mentions of the author’s spiritual mentors De Falla and Ravel are also present. Paeonian feet (‘del ritmo e del metro peonio’, as noted in Italian in the score), are common to South Serbian, Central Balkan, Andalusian and Basque folklore.
