Info for Pancho Vladigerov: Impressions

"Ein solches Werk kommt vielleicht einmal in einem Jahrhundert vor", sagte Dmitri Schostakowitsch, nachdem er die große Sinfonie "Ein jüdisches Gedicht op. 47" (1950) von Pancho Vladigerov gehört hatte. Vladigerovs vielfarbige, fantasievolle und lebensfrohe Musik, die von seinen führenden Kollegen Richard Strauss, Aram Chatschaturjan oder eben Schostakowitsch bewundert wurde, vermischte kunstvoll Elemente der westlichen Musik, des Jazz, Hollywood-Themen und der bulgarischen Volksmusik. Der Komponist und Musikkritiker Tz. Tzankov lobte »die wilde, rasende Leidenschaft, mit der Vladigerov die Zuhörer mitreißt, so dass selbst diejenigen, die am wenigsten geneigt sind, sich in die Kunst zu vertiefen, in einem fast elektrischen Zustand gehalten werden.« Vladigerov war eine faszinierende Persönlichkeit, die vor Freude und Energie nur so sprühte und ein eigenes Universum schuf. Am Klavier erforschte er immense, noch nicht ausgeschöpfte Möglichkeiten des musikalischen Ausdrucks.

Das Album wurde in der Parise Église Évangelique Saint-Marcel auf einem C. Bechstein D282 Konzertflügel aufgenommen.
