Olivier Messiaen: Canteyodjaya
Canteyodjaya
April 2000
“Hakon Austbo's third volume of Messiaen's Piano Music offers gorgeous sounds in the composer's early, post-Debussyan set of Preludes, plus the wirier exoticism of the four Rhythmic Studies inspired by Papuan native culture and Canteyodjaya-the title of which comes from Indian Karnatic theory of rhythm. Austbo's expertise ideally captures the verve and sweep of Canteyodjaya in particular.”
