Description

Anna Fedorova explores the secrets of darkness in these programmatic and highly virtuosic works for solo piano. The journey from darkness to light begins with Scriabin's Piano Sonata No. 9, the so-called "Black Mass," which draws the listener into a seemingly diabolical vortex. The suite from Falla's "El Amor brujo" conjures up a mysterious world full of magic, rituals, and ghostly visits. Ravel described his "Gaspard de la nuit" as 'romantic and of transcendent virtuosity'. Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition" shows many scenes of darkness, but ends with the "Great Gate of Kiev" in the light, where triumphant episodes alternate with moments of religious contemplation.
