· This third and final volume dedicated to Enescu's piano works shows the unique blend of influences he acquired during his teenage years in
Vienna and Paris.
·
These start with his Brahms-like treatment of the piano as a symphonic instrument in the Scherzo and Ballade to the infusion of French late-
Romanticism and Faure in the Impromptus.
· This recording charts a two-decade period in the musical life of the eminent Dagestani composer, teacher and conductor, Murad Kazhlaev.
· He has always written with idiomatic flair for his own instrument, the piano, from the early Romantic Sonatina to the beautiful folk themes that make up the Dagestan Album.
· With two world premiere recordings, this program highlights the Romantic and spiritual side of contemporary music from Russia and Eastern Europe.
· Galina Ustvolskaya's early Concerto expresses a vision of beauty and suffering in a tonal language quite unlike her later works.
· Giya Kancheli's Sio or "breeze" is notable for its striking use of silence, as well as modal tunes, bass drones and wide dynamic extremes derived from Georgian
folk music.
