Alexander Gadjiev - Legends - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Alexander Gadjiev writes InchThis is a special album that exclusively features brief pieces taken from short anthologies or collections. For me it's like a journey without a chronology I just wanted to choose an interesting itinerary. All these pieces seem to evoke a Inchdark meditationInch. Even in lively passages there is an underlying mood of brooding it is the atmosphere of the early 20th century and the cultural milieu of Symbolism. These are brief, abstract visions of different worlds. You can sense that a single chord or series of sounds could escalate to evoke an entire universe.Inch Album Tracks 1. 8 Sarcasms, Op. 17 2. 8 Pieces for Piano, Op. 88 3. 2 Preludes, Op. 85 Nos. 1 & 9 4.

On his first solo clavichord album, Alexander Gergelyfi creates an exceptionally colorful and at the same time sensual portrait of his home country Austria. Exquisite music from the 17th and 18th centuries is presented on what is probably the oldest surviving Austrian clavichord. The elegant InchAdmontInch clavichord serves Alexander Gergelyfi as a gateway to hidden sounds and as a companion between dances. Simple yet affecting, keen, and fine.
