Signposts is about composers: the ones listed in the Wandelweiser catalogue of 2016. Their music can be heard in the fragments chosen freely by the pianist. Anastassis Philippakopoulos writes melodies: the melody has become a piece. There are scales and permutations, variations but no motifs. The melodies are mostly about what he sees: the sea, the sky, mountains. Duo (2h) is a duo for pianist. There are 40 measures and each hand has a solo twice. It feels like a very personal piece to its composer and had never been played in public before this recording was made.
