About this product
German-Turkish artists Gulru Ensari and Herbert Schuch present this album of Monologues by Bernd Alois Zimmermann. The duo writes of this InchAs students we had already been allowed to take a peek inside the Monologues, but we only had access to a couple of photocopied pages. When the 100-year-celebration of Zimmermann's birth came around, we remembered the impression they had made upon us. When we finally got to see the entire score, however, we took a deep breath it demands the most incredible acrobatic feats! From the very beginning, we were particularly charmed by the way Zimmermann cites other composers the quoted passages rise up in the midst of an agitated storm, like islands of tranquility and beauty. The works quoted by Zimmermann are not for piano duo, but we find that they have certain parallels with the other pieces on this recording. The cocky, unpredictable, whimsical aspect of Mozart's C Major Sonata is also present in Zimmermann. It is fascinating to note how he quotes Debussy's prelude Feux d'artifice in the 4th and 5th Monologues, thereby transplanting that shimmering French flair into his own musical environment. Debussy, for Zimmermann, is more than just a source for quotes. The frothy, pastel sonorities in the Monologues are so untypically German, so much more beautifully poetic than anywhere else, except in Debussy.Inch Album Tracks 1. Sonata in C Major for Piano Four Hands, K. 521 2. En Blanc Et Noir, for Two Pianos, L. 134 3. Monologues for Two Pianos

Along with Prokofiev, Shostakovich, and Khachaturian, Dmitri Kabalevsky was one of the InchBig FourInch of Soviet music. Following our recordings of his four symphonies, complete works for piano and orchestra, cello concertos, string quartets, and complete piano sonatas, this again turns to his keyboard music featuring works for piano solo, this time focusing on his complete Préludes. Bach's idea to set a monument to the well-tempered system by writing two cycles of twenty-four preludes and fugues in all the major and minor keys has continued to fascinate composers of all succeeding generations, and Kabalevsky was no exception. His multifaceted preludes not only are obliged to Scriabin but also already reveal his own personal style and show him striving to develop new harmonic solutions. Yet another interesting rarity for piano fans! Album Tracks 1. 24 Préludes Op. 38~I. Andantino 2. 24 Préludes Op. 38~II. Scherzando 3. 24 Préludes Op. 38~III.
