The World of Total Scordatura
These works explore the possibilities of a violin’s scordatura i.e. alternative tunings of the violin strings. Such
experimentation with the potential effects was already present in the works of Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber and runs right
through the history of music, from Ysaÿe and Camille Saint-Saëns to contemporary works that are recorded here for the
first time.
