Digital Booklet
|
|||||
On this digital-only release, pianist Katja Avdeeva demonstrates her art while profoundly expressing the sensitive poetry of her illustrious compatriots Alexander Scrabin and Nikolai Medtner, contemporaries who both devoted practically all their compositions to the piano. Already marking Scriabin’s stylistic evolution towards modernity, the Sonata No. 3 opens the programme followed by the sublime Fourth Sonata. Avdeeva's extraordinary palette of colours intimately plunges lovers of Russian music into the inner world of the master of modernity while reintroducing two sonatas by Nikolai Medtner, nine years younger than Scriabin.
