Emmanuel Nunes - Knipper, Till; Zwenzner, Michael (München Ricordi, 2011)
The art of Emmanuel Nunes sets standards for the music of today. His compositions resist the economic cycles of compositional fashions and ideologies in a most impressive way. The artistic qualities of his work have been so profoundly convincing that - following a fine Ricordi tradition lasting over 200 years - we have embarked on the publishing venture of helping to bring this composer?s works, which blow apart all conventions, and all standard formats, into the world. [...] We feel our view has been confirmed time after time by the many skilled and enthusiastic musicians, conductors, ensembles and representatives of various institutions who have advocated Nunes' music, and still do. This is reinforced not least by the numerous contributions to the present publication.
