Digital Booklet

This debut album from Sri Lankan concert pianist and composer Tanya Ekanayaka contains world premiere recordings of her deeply autobiographical solo piano compositions, or reinventions, which introduce a novel and hybrid musical genre. She takes a wide variety of ancient, folk and popular Sri Lankan melodies and blends them with motifs inspired by the tonal centres of established classical compositions by Bach, Beethoven, Ravel and others.
"My music is my diary, through which I share and relive specific moments of my life. The works evolved spontaneously between 2010 and 2014 while I was at the piano. While deeply autobiographical, each work also presents a blend of two musical domains ... each work may also be seen as representing my indigenous culture while seeking to highlight connectivity between the different works of a concert programme ..."
