Bonis / Roslavets / Brackman - Discovering Roslavets - I. Silver Night [CD]

Debut recording for an experienced piano trio, who celebrate their fifteenth anniversary launching a series devoted to Russian composer Nikolaj Roslavets, known as the Russian Schoenberg. This is the first volume and it couples Roslavets' Third Piano Trio with the famous arrangement of Schoenberg Verklaerte Nacht by Emmanuel Steuermann. To complete the disc, Shostakovich First Piano Trio, composed in the same year (1923) and in the same place (St. Petersburg). Discover Roslavets and his remarkable music, as much neglected as much worthwhile listening to.
