Markus Bellheim begins this series with a major piece, one in which various key elements of the composer’s later music come well to the fore. Bellheim has performed the complete works of Messiaen several times and has worked with contemporary composers such as Kurtág and Rihm. His CD of Piano Works by Rihm (NEOS10717/18) was highly praised.
