BUSONI : SONATA FOR PIANO & VIOLIN NO. 2 - ENESCU: SONATA FOR VIOLIN & PIANO NO. 3
For Etienne Barilier, the author of the liner notes, their success and popularity as performers proved to be a hindrance to their reputations as composers. Neither utilized a modern compositional system or founded a school of composition, two key elements of interest to posterity… Happily, however, it is never too late, and in this sense their rediscovery is even more delightful. “Busoni and Enescu were great humanist musicians, and their compositions, magnificently singular, incontestably modern, are filled by a rich and vast sense of the musical past”, notes the author.
“They are cultivated as well as audacious, but if one would like to approach their music, it is necessary to appreciate audacity as well as culture. And thus they have bequeathed us with boundless riches.”
(2008) Busoni : Sonata for Piano & Violin No. 2 - Enescu: Sonata for Violin & Piano No. 3 - CD 2811
After Bach’s “Goldberg Variations” in 2004, a double-album featuring Schumann’s piano music in 2006, and the “Folies françaises”, dedicated to Couperin, Debussy and Messiaen, pianist Cédric Pescia is back at Claves together with violinist Nurit Stark, who makes her debut on CD. Both Busonis second sonata and Enescu’s third sonata are the works of two truly innovative composers whose music is worth to be rediscovered.
