Info zu Brahms: Piano Works

Daria Kameneva, 2011 mit dem 1. Preis beim Europäischen Klavierwettbewerb in Frankreich ausgezeichnet, debütiert hier mit ihrer ersten Album-Produktion, einem Programm mit Werken von Johannes Brahms. Ausgesprochen kraftvoll, wie bei der frühen, mächtigen Sonate Nr. 2 op. 2 (1852), und genauso feinsinnig, wie beispielsweise in den zu Brahms letzten Werken gehörenden Vier Klavierstücken op. 119 (1893), mit ihrem intimen Charakter abseits oberflächlicher Virtuosität, zeigt Sie die volle Bandbreite ihres Könnens. Abgerundet wird das Programm durch die Variationen D-Dur über ein eigenes Thema op. 21 aus dem Jahr 1857. Daria Kameneva spielt einen Shigeru Kawai Flügel.
