Synopsis

Product Description

This is a beautiful collection of rare piano works by Moniuszko, Szymanowski, Kuhlau, Villa-Lobos among others. This new album by Felicja Blumental sees her drawing on her Polish background, demonstrating her deep understanding of the works by Moniuszko, Chopin and Szymanowski, while exposing her dexterity through Villa-Lobos? Three Maries, her dramatic version of Kabalewski?s Sonatine and in the Presto of Beethoven?s infamous ?Mooonlight Sonata.? The title track of the album is a particular highlight that is also available as a vocal work. Moniuszko often used the melodies and rhythmic patterns of Polish folk tunes for his compositions and this work demonstrates shows just that. The poignant Siciliana by Bach and the Menuet d?Orphee by Gluck provide some light refreshments among a bustle of fantastically vibrant piano pieces.
