Additional information:
This year 2004 commemorates the 150-th anniversary of the birth of Leos Janacek, one of Czechs most famous and original composers.
Janaceks music is highly personal, his language immediately recognizable: short, almost aphoristic motives form the basis of a highly dramatic discourse.
His piano works include the famous Piano Sonata (written after the death of a man during a workers demonstration), the highly attractive cycle On an overgrown path (short pieces of sometimes violent, sometimes painfully intimate emotions), the cycle In the mist , and series on Czech and Moravian folk melodies.
Norwegian pianist Hakon Austbö already recorded extensively for Brilliant Classics (Satie, Brahms Klavierstücke, Grieg Lyrische Stücke), and proves himself again a true master in the short form, completely identifying himself with the composer and his inner thoughts. |
