Ballads And Quintets

Description

With his extraordinary piano talents, Fazil Say has touched audiences and critics for over twenty-five years, in a way that has become rare in the world of classical music. The concerts of this artist have a very particular character. They are more direct, more open, more exciting; in short, they go straight to the heart.
On this disc with the casal Quartett "Ballades & Quintettes," two works by Fazil Say in addition to Schumann's Piano Quintet in E-flat major op. 44 are performed. The casal Quartett, which has won numerous awards, has developed a unique sound and style that brings a new light to the peak of the string quartet. The meeting with Fazil Say seemed inevitable.
"The 3 Ballades op. 12" for piano quintet were originally ballades for solo piano, specially rewritten for this publication.
The piano quintet "The Moving Mansion" conveys a story from the past. The theme is a spectacular tale about the founder of the Turkish Republic, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.
