About This Item
Pianist Naoko Christ-Kato is dedicated to bringing to light the works of forgotten and persecuted Jewish composers. On her new GENUIN album, she now presents music by the Dutchwoman Rosy Wertheim - a rediscovery of delicate, multi-layered sounds that have been forgotten for far too long. The musical arc extends from the charming Sonatina, through imaginative character pieces, to the large-scale Variations on a Theme by César Franck. With refined and committed playing, Naoko Christ-Kato compellingly brings this music - so deserving of being heard - to the public's awareness. Album Tracks 1.
