Description
In these live performances pianist Nancy Garniez presents side by side familiar works by Schubert (1797 1828) and some long-neglected works by Dvok (1841 1904). One of the first champions of the music of Schubertespecially of his piano musicDvok explored the piano in miniature tone poems reserving larger scale works for piano together with strings. Extraordinary pianistic color, seamless tonal flow, orchestral effects all of these proclaim Dvok a worthy heir to Schubert.
This is the third of Nancy Garniezs CDs of intimate piano recitals recorded live for release without editing. Ms. Garniez draws the listener into the pianos sound as the source of inspiration for both composer and performer. Haydn / Bartok is a recital of Haydn sonatas alternating with selections from Bartoks For Children, Vol. II, based on Slovak Folk Songs. This CD was voted one of the top 50 picks in American Idol Underground, March, 2006. Piano Works by Haydn (four sonatas and the F minor Variations) prompted critic Charles Timbrell to write: .The naturalness of a live performance is captured perfectly, as is the artists fine sense of rhetoric without bombast. Musicologists have remarked the fidelity of the interpretation to 18th century stylistic principles. Some remark that it is as close to fortepiano playing as the modern instrument allows.
