About this product
Grazyna BACEWICZ was born on 5 February 1909 in Lódz. In 1919, she joined the Helena Kijenska-Dobkiewiczowa Music Conservatory in Lódz, where she took violin and piano lessons. After her family had moved to Warsaw, she continued her education at the local conservatory under the supervision of Kazimierz Sikorski (composition), Józef Jarzebski (violin), and Józef Turczynski (piano). In 1932 - thanks to a scholarship funded by Ignacy Jan Paderewski - she began a two-year study at the École Normale de Musique in Paris under Nadia Boulanger. In 1934, she returned to the French capital, this time to complete her education with respected violinist Carl Flesch. A year later, she was awarded the first honorable mention in the 1st International Henryk Wieniawski Violin Competition. Since then, for 18 years, she had also been active as a concert violinist. In 1953, Bacewicz abandoned stage activities, focusing almost exclusively on composing and teaching. In 1966, she took the composition class at the Higher State School of Music in Warsaw. The artist died on 17 January 1969. The present is a showcase of her music for string orchestra.

Sandrine Piau and the pianist David Kadouch have formed a new duo whose first concerts have been enthusiastically received. As is her won't, the French soprano enjoys intermingling languages and the worlds of different composers and poets around a theme; here Schubert, Liszt, Wolf and Clara Schumann rub shoulders with Lili Boulanger, Duparc and Debussy. Sandrine Piau explains 'The promise of new horizons, the joy of new encounters the journey in all it's forms was the common thread of this recital for David and me. From the quest for a longed-for yet inaccessible elsewhere to the ultimate transition to death, it maps out our aspirations, our obstacles and the Inchjoyous getawaysInch offered to us by the whirlwind of life. She quotes a beautiful poem often attributed to Pablo Neruda 'He dies slowly who does not travel, who does not read, who does not listen to music, who does not know how to find grace in his own eyes.'
