Out of a fascination for Bach, Lera Auerbach wrote the ten-part composition par.ti.ta. She does not quote any specific work by Bach, but creates her own unique sonic world which is richly varied and evokes echoes of his music.
Joseph Puglia, violinist of Asko|Schönberg and teacher at the Royal Conservatoire, combines par.ti.ta with works by contemporary Dutch composers from different generations, including Jan van de Putte, Martijn Padding, Robin de Raaff and several composition students from the Royal Conservatoire.
