⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5 Stars Review on Trouw about the performance of Jeths' Scale by Hartmut Haenchen

Updated: Jun 5, 2022


On the review on Hartmut Haenchen's performance of Willem Jeths' Scale, Peter van der Lint writes about both the performance and the pieces.


In this review you will read:

Jeths mixes elements from Mahler's musical magic box in an original way. Brass players behind the stage, the tuba from Mahler's Tenth , a veiled drum and a large hammer block – the ingredients fit nicely into Jeths' own tonal language. Although he deals more hammer blows than Mahler himself ever dared. But the silent end of a single finger over a glass of water nicely cancels out all those blows. Sovereignly executed.
