Au-Dela du Temps

Contemporary Japanese composer, Yuko Uebayashi moved to Paris in 1998. Uebayashi’s works have been met with much success in both Japan and France, Beyond Time for 2 Flutes and Piano being no exception. Flautist, Jean Ferrandisdescribed Uebayashi’s music as gems that, although they are so different, they yet belong to the same world, a world of vivacity, dreams, tenderness, humour, and one that is subtly contradicted by vehemence, virtuosity, melancholyand sorrow. Beyond Time contains four movements – 1) The distant light of the night, 2) The dancing light, 3) The white light, and 4) The rotating light in the dream. Beyond Time is modern in style, exploiting tonality, rhythm andthe ensemble. A typical performance lasts about 18 minutes. Uebayashi’s Beyond Time for 2 Flutes and Piano is a sublime addition to the ensemble repertoire.
