He is one of the "superstars" of the piano world. An exceptional teacher - his pupils include stars such as Arcadi Volodos or Claire-Marie Le Guay - Dmitri Bashkirov’s debut with Claves combines a most original programme with orchestra. Face to face, we have: Johann Sebastian Bach’s most famous son, Carl Philip Emanuel, forbearer of the great Romantic composers, and an unusual Ludwig van Beethoven. This particular Concerto op. 61a is indeed very rarely played, copying almost note for note the original score of the Violin Concerto op. 61. Written about two years after the completion of the latter, this transcription - for which Etienne Barilier suggests the term "transposition" in the booklet - is shrouded in mystery. Is it the consequence of the original lack of success of the violin concerto, or Beethoven’s response to the pianist and editor Muzio Clementi who commissioned the work? Beyond these unanswered questions, Etienne Barilier underlines the relevance of pairing this work to CPE Bach’s Concerto in C minor: "Bach had written for the harpsichord; to resort to the piano tends to "modernise" his world. Whereas on the other hand, Beethoven’s almost monophonic piano has a somewhat archaic and strangely nude feel, which sends his work back in time. So that for us, both works seem closer to each other in time, with an almost comparable "sensibility", both bright and serene, with the same deep expressivity, free from pathos. For Carl Philip Emanuel Bach, the storms of Romanticism are still far away. For Beethoven, they are very close indeed; in this strange work however, he keeps them at bay." What with Dmitry Bashkirov’s magnificent interpretation and the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne’s delicate and artful accompaniment, this will make for a memorable recording. |

Mélodie Zhao is typical of all young girls of her generation : she uses all the modern means of communication, has her own web page, is actively present on social networks and lives her art and work passionately. Yet her own passion is rather unusual: as a 17 year old, her ambition is to play the most complex piano cycle ever written, with the added bonus of making it feel like a walk in the park whilst striving to unite musicality and virtuosity in one vital surge. Recorded in the best recording studio in Switzerland, the famous Salle de Musique in La Chaux-deFonds, these Transcendental Etudes, written by Liszt in Vienna at the age of 15, emerge, with Mélodie Zhao’s gracefulness, as a bursting, youthful, loving tribute to life. An interpretation as cheeky and mind-blowing as the CD cover! |

Anniversaries are just great! The bicentenary of the birth of Franz Liszt - outstanding, hero-worshipped artist, star of the romantic 19th century - has given Joseph Moog the chance to present an anthology of rare transcriptions and paraphrases. Throughout this generous programme, the young virtuoso takes us along previously virtually unexplored paths, with evocations of Bach, Beethoven, Schubert and Rossini, and settings such as a cathedral, an opera, a ball, or the delicate intimacy of a Romantic salon, illustrating Franz Liszt’s extraordinary versatility in every situation. As a complement to these transcriptions and paraphrases, Joseph Moog chose the second Ballade, rare testimony of the introverted Liszt, contrasting with the sparkling Valse-Impromptu that closes this outstanding recital. |

Following his critically acclaimed Claves release ‘Metamorphonse(n)’ - cat.no 502905, Joseph Moog focuses his attention to contrasting worlds of the first half of the 20th century. The young German pianist presents rare works by Jongen, Reger & Scriabin with the booklet notes comparing the three in a most interesting way - “French spirit, German soul and Russian Mysticism,” all in all, an intriguing combination. |

This programme of Couperin/Debussy/Messiaen, is constructed like a voyage through the centuries and is dedicated to three composers whose connections are manifest: Debussy’s elegance and clarity are clearly reminiscent of Couperin, and Messiaen was fascinated by Debussy’s innovations and touched by the subtle musical impressions of the elder composer. The musical voyage is made even more agreeable by the absorbing playing of Cédric Pescia.
