About This Item
A wonderfully and sensitively curated recital of piano music with light and darkness, or night and day as the central theme. Water, fantastical dreams and visions also inhabit the world conjured by Maria Martinova from the music of Debussy, Ravel and the contemporary Swiss composer Georges Zanon, who's two movement work gives this album it's title. Martinova's pianism is by turn dazzling, tender and dramatic as she interprets the vivid sound world of these composers. Album Tracks 1. Images II L. 120 (111)~No. 2.
