Our Take

HELENE DESAINT's latest offering, a mesmerizing rendition of Schumann and Kurtag, is a rollercoaster ride through the depths of emotion and the heights of musical brilliance. From the hauntingly beautiful piano melodies to the hauntingly beautiful vocals, this album is a feast for the senses.

Desaint's interpretation of Schumann's intricate compositions is nothing short of revelatory. Her delicate touch on the keys brings out the nuances and complexities of each piece, while simultaneously capturing the raw emotion and passion that Schumann intended.

But it's her collaboration with Kurtag that truly sets this album apart. The juxtaposition of Schumann's Romanticism with Kurtag's modern sensibilities creates a dynamic tension that keeps the listener on the edge of their seat.

From the tender intimacy of "Widmung" to the explosive energy of "Fantasiestucke," each track on this album is a masterpiece in its own right. Desaint's technical skill and emotional depth shine through in every note, leaving the listener breathless and wanting more.

In short, HELENE DESAINT's Schumann - Kurtag is a tour de force that cements her status as one of the most exciting and versatile pianists in the classical music world. Don't miss out on this musical journey – it's one you won't soon forget.
