Info zu Secrets of Armenia

Die Musik in dieser Sammlung spiegelt den Geist Armeniens durch Tänze und Lieder wider, die ihren Ursprung in Szenen aus dem armenischen Alltag haben. Korganovs malerisches Bayati ist eine besonders lebendige Darstellung, während Kara-Murzas Pot-pourri sur des airs arméniens ein bedeutendes Werk ist, das armenische Volksmusik mit der westlichen Klaviertradition verbindet. Melikians Emeralds ist einer seiner berühmten Romanzyklen, die sich durch einen starken Sinn für poetische Erzählungen und eine lebendige emotionale Ausdruckskraft auszeichnen. Dieses Album mit armenischen Klavierentdeckungen wird von Yulia Ayrapetyan gespielt, einer Spezialistin für die Musik Armeniens.
