About this product

This album is pianist Peter Jablonski's third solo album for the Ondine tag. In this album Jablonski represents Grazyna Bacewicz's (1909-1969) dazzling piano etudes and piano sonatas which are hardly known outside of her native Poland. Jablonski's piano albums have received an enthusiastic response and his previous album received Editor's Choice from the Gramophone magazine. In recent years the music of Grazyna Bacewicz has been enjoying an ever-increasing popularity in concert hall programs. Bacewicz was a major Polish composer and a versatile musician a child prodigy violinist, she was also an accomplished pianist. As a composer, she is known for her inventive, complex, and original musical language, and particularly many of her works for violin are well known. Bacewicz studied first at the Warsaw Conservatory and briefly continued her studies in Paris before returning back home. In 1934, she received a position of concertmaster at the Polish Radio Orchestra. This position proved invaluable to her as a composer, giving her insights into each instrument's possibilities and orchestral composition. Her music displays many characteristic traits of the twentieth-century that are to be heard in the writings of Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Bartók, and Lutoslawski, among others. Jablonski's piano album covers only eight short years during which the works presented here were composed and brings together, for the first time, both piano sonatas, and both sets of etudes. Sonata No. 1 for solo piano was composed in 1949but waited over seventy years until Peter Jablonski edited it for PWM for publication.

Reznicek / Staatskapelle - Symphonische Suite 1   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Our comprehensive and successful Reznicek edition now presents three very different works - the Symphonic Suite No. 1 (1882), Dream Play Suite (1915 / 21), and Carnival Suite (1932) - which the composer nonetheless assigned to the suite genre. Taken together, they document his compositional and stylistic development over the decades. Moreover, they are performed by an orchestra that Reznicek himself once had conducted for a short time the Weimar State Orchestra. His Symphonic Suite is more like a three-movement symphony for full orchestra. It is clearly audible that here Reznicek is not concerned with motivic work and thematic fission but with the contrast of moods. The harmony and the instrumentation leave little doubt about it's source of inspiration in Wagner. The suite from the incidental music to Strindberg's Dream Play is a series of short, atmospherically dense musical pictures, and in terms of it's compositional history the Carnival Suite is a symphonic intermezzo dividing the opera Gondoliere des Dogen into two parts. In the manner of a Baroque suite, it consists of seven parts March - Introduction - Pierrot and Columbine - Gigue - Furlana - Passepied - Aria - Gypsy March. The relation of the suite to the rest of the opera music results from the circumstance that here too the rhythm of the Furlana (dance from the Friuli region) is omnipresent. Album Tracks 1. Karneval-Suite Im Alten Stil (1931/35) 2. Traumspiel-Suite (1916/21) 3. Symphonische Suite No. 1 (1882)
