CD Reviews

Ivan Klansky plays Janacek beautifully

08/07/1999

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This CD features the gorgeous Janacek piano pieces that appeared on the soundtrack of _The Unbearable Lightness of Being_. The sensitivity and delicate touch that Klansky shows is outstanding. Just listen to track 4, "The Madonna of Frydek," which was the centerpiece of the movie. Klansky's touch is masterful, particularly in his use of silence in the beginning and ending of the piece. I believe Milan Kundera suggested Klansky's versions to director Philip Kaufman, and how right he was-- other interpreters of this music just do not embue it with the emotion that Klansky does. An essential CD.The CD is 52 minutes long and was recorded in Prague in 1980. NOTE: Shame on Amazon for not putting Klansky's name in its info about this CD!"
