Abel Ehrlich - Meine Reise nach Tilsit

“... it is then that you realise the emigrant’s horror, when, upon returning to your birthplace, instead of Tilžė you remember you face Sovetsk’s chaos - it is in such context that one must listen to Abel Ehrlich’s “Meine Reise nach Tilsit“ played by the Kaunas String Quartet on the 17th of July, in which the serialist technique was enriched by the author’s expressionist accords, elaborate and irregular rhythmic figures (this particularly interesting and holistic composition was played in Lithuania for the first time)...“ 2 August 2013 -- Septynios meno dienos ((Seven Days of Art, Lithuania), the music critic Dr. Rima Povilionienė ......................................................
