Recorded on a Blüthner Model 1 Concert Grand.
This recording is about the perception of Mozart after his death … and a
very special commemoration for the Mozart Anniversary Year! The
transcriptions and free fantasies that Petronel Malan has selected trace
Mozart reincarnated and transfigured through the ears, techniques, and
compositional gifts of seven composers. Chronologically, they range
from Hummel, a Mozart pupil, to Friedman, a twentieth-century
keyboard virtuoso who survived World War II. Stylistically, the range is
equally wide. This is pianist and triple Grammy nominee Petronel
Malan’s second album for Hänssler Classic. |
