Gubaidulina's religious nature, specifically Russian Orthodox, finds expression in each of these pieces. Each also makes use of her much-loved bayan, the Russian button accordion played here with great virtuosity by Inaki Alberdi...the performer's interpretation goes, with her encouragement, well beyond the composer's notation...This is a remarkable, compelling work.
