Georgia Mangos - Complete Symphonic Poems for Two Pianos - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Carl Reinecke became known not least for his piano works, in which he reveals his style rooted in Romanticism. He wrote not only for solo piano, but also for piano four hands and for two pianos. The piano duo Genova & Dimitrov have now discovered this group of works for themselves and describe Reinecke as Inchone of the greatest surprises and discoveries of our musical pathInch. The duo now presents the first recording of all works for two pianos and reveals InchEven while playing through the beautiful, introductory phrase of his Andante with Variations op. 6, a whole new world opened up before us in a split second and drew us into the further almost 200 minutes. It is a world of multi-layered human emotions, contrasts and spontaneity, a world of boundless, pure love and courtesy for fellow human beings, of unconditional helpfulness and understanding, of the deepest respect for others, of devoted selflessness and unshakeable faith in God and in the good in people. All that is Carl Reinecke as a person gushes forth ceaselessly from his music. Through the present recordings, we hope to be able to pass on to our audience this 'source of life' as pure and unadulterated as possible, just as we received it as a gift from the great master.Inch A brilliant complete edition!

The piano work by Franco Margola, brilliant composer and teacher of the second half of the twentieth century, is presented for the first time in an integral edition within this containing his greatest works and his didactic compositions that Margola continued writing even in his most advanced age. Here Margola's musical writing quality appears in all it's value, testifying the unconditional esteem his music enjoyed by one of the greatest pianists of all time, Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, that often used to perform his works in concert. The performance is entrusted to the rare technical and expressive abilities of Alessandro Deljavan, a multi-award-winning top performer of the current international piano scene. Deljavan began studying the piano when he was only two years old, and after receiving a degree from the Conservatory of Milan, Italy, he was selected for the prestigious Lake Como International Piano Association where he studied with William Grant Nabore, Dimitri Bashkirov, Laurent Boullet, and others. His prizes include 5th place at the 2005 Gina Bachauer International Young Artists Competition, and 2nd prize at the 2010 Isang Yun Competition, South Korea. Album Tracks 1.
