This recording presents Beckett's 1987 text, a contemplative monologue on the threshold of existence, interwoven with original music conceived specifically for this release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeckett, a known admirer of Schubert's musicality, infused his own writing with a rhythmic and structural elegance. 'Stirrings Still' exemplifies this, functioning as a composition of intricate developments and refrains. Trevor Baca's score acts not as a mere accompaniment, but as a parallel sonic stream, alternating with Beckett's words to deepen their resonance and meaning. The JACK Quartet's performance draws the listener into this layered experience, enhancing the text's introspective power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRecorded in 2023 and 2024, this project was overseen by producer Manfred Eicher, whose long-standing fascination with the musicality inherent in Beckett's writing is evident throughout the recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFeatures Samuel Beckett's final prose work, 'Stirrings Still.'\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOriginal music composed by Trevor Baca, performed by the JACK Quartet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA unique fusion of literary text and contemporary classical composition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExplores themes of life, memory, and the beyond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis CD offers a compelling auditory journey into one of literature's most significant voices, enhanced by a masterful musical interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul Griffiths; Jack Quartet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57918089363838,"sku":"B0HB5W9J2T","price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/3919\/1207\/files\/81ETTKsHJgL_411051a6-3592-432e-811a-c57fa51ce2e3.jpg?v=1787737677","url":"https:\/\/ca.yachew.com\/products\/samuel-beckett-trevor-baca-stirrings-still","provider":"Yachew","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
