Description: Liszt / Giorgini - Harmonies Poetiques [New CD] Artist: Liszt / Giorgini Title: Harmonies Poetiques Condition: Format: CD Release Date: 2021 Label: Pentatone UPC: 827949029660 Genre: Classical Artists After two song albums together with Ian Bostridge, pianist Saskia Giorgini returns to PENTATONE with a solo recording of Franz Liszt's Harmonies poétiques et religieuses. Liszt is often seen as a showman, but much of his music reveals his introspective, searching nature. This is demonstrated above all in Harmonies poétiques et religieuses, one of his most ambitious, contemplative and enigmatic compositions, inspired by Lamartine's eponymous poetry, Liszt's Roman Catholic faith as well as the 1848-1849 revolutions. To Giorgini, "this music is deeply humane and sincere, tender, but also full of the most sorrowful, violent, painful moments that Liszt ever put into music." It's ten movements constitute a quest for the deeper meaning of human existence, clothed in music of ravishing beauty. Saskia Giorgini is one of the most promising pianists of her generation, who has won several competitions and is hailed for her technical command and the beauty and poetry of her sound. Her PENTATONE discography features well-received recordings of Schubert's Die schöne Müllerin (2020) and Respighi Songs (2021), together with Ian Bostridge.© DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
