Label: ARS Prod Catalog: ARS38130 Format: SACD / CD Hybrid Danae Dörken, pianoLeos Janácek (1854-1928) ZdenkaVariationen (Variations for Zdenka) / Auf verwachsenem Pfade (On an overgrown path I) / Sonate 1.X.1905 / Eine Erinnerung (A recollection) "What makes Leos Janácek's music so appealing to me apart from its many peculiarities is that he saw the piano as an instrument to confide his innermost conflicts and aspirations to in times of trouble. When I first came in contact with these pieces, I immediately felt that they offered a sincere and direct window into Janácek's soul. I am delighted by the challenge to perform the music's abrupt changes from recurring moments of tranquility and bliss to forceful interjections that border on insanity exactly as they were written."
