Crespo Series with Nathalia Milstein @ West Cork Chamber Music Festival 2022
Nathalia Milstein’s final recital explores different styles from Russia, Hungary, France and Austria. All four composers are exploring new paths in these pieces. Schubert’s Wanderer is a seminal Romantic figure, unreservedly loved, admired and imitated. Bartók’s granitic and percussive score stands out as a milestone in Twentieth Century music. Scriabin took his own very special path in the last days of the old world before War and Revolution. His Tenth Sonata is a masterpiece in harmony with Nature, bright, joyful and earthy. The four movements of Suite Bergamesque include the Andante très expressif, universally known as Clair de lune.
