Description: | The music of Liszt is especially close to Mariam Batsashviliâ??s heart. It takes pride of place on her second Warner Classics album, devoted in the main to evocative, technically formidable piano transcriptions of opera, song and organ music. Speaking of Liszt, the Georgian-born pianist says: â??Whether he was making transcriptions of operatic arias or art songs, he set out to evoke the feelings of the original workâ??s dramatic and poetic worlds â?¦ and in my view he succeeded in this with great strength and truth.â?
The album includes Lisztâ??s realisation of the Liebestod from Wagnerâ??s Tristan und Isolde, a spectacular take on Belliniâ??s opera La sonnambula from Lisztâ??s great rival, Sigismund Thalberg, and Harold Bauerâ??s adaptation of César Franckâ??s noble Prélude, Fugue et Variation. As the Observer has written, Mariam Batsashviliâ??s â??technical prowess and ability to negotiate Lisztâ??s showy grandeur is a given, but her sense of his inner world, his wistful, nonchalant poetry sets her apart.â? - "Romantic Piano Masters" is a captivating CD featuring the exceptional artistry of Mariam Batsashvili, released by PLG Classics. This album brings together some of the most beloved works from the Romantic piano repertoire, interpreted with passion and finesse by one of today?s leading pianists. Mariam Batsashvili, acclaimed for her expressive touch and technical brilliance, has won prestigious awards such as the International Franz Liszt Competition in Utrecht and has performed at renowned venues worldwide. Her interpretations breathe new life into masterpieces by composers like Chopin, Liszt, and Schumann. The label behind this release, PLG Classics, is known for its dedication to high-quality classical music productions and supporting outstanding artists on their journey to international recognition. |
