Info for Scriabin & Chopin: Preludes

These forty-eight preludes by Scriabin and Chopin combined into one cycle are the timeless, symbolic image of feelings and emotions of human existence. Each prelude of the cycle expresses a fleeting feeling, a fleeting thought. The only thing that over the centuries seems to be constant is the universe that surrounds us. It is in its immense space that we can find answers about human existence.

"...A sovereign master of her art Dina Yoffe dringt immer bis zum inneren einer Komposition vor,nie wirkt etwas unnaturlich. Eroica-Variation erschien in einem neuen Licht mit unvergleichlicher Tonschöncheit und fantastischem Farbenreichtum vorangesponnen. (Süddeutsche Zeitung)

"...Her playing flowed beautifully, and avoided even the slightest hint of sentimentality. Hers was a strongly felt authentic Chopin. Maestro Zubin Mehta collaborated marvellously as a perfect accompanist." (B.Bar-Ami,Jerusalem Post)

"...it is not only finished skill of master that characterizes her rendition but first of all the striking poetry of her soul that is in full swing.(..)at desert of modern art her playing resembles a life - giving spring which restores the lost harmony of our world." (Ongaku no Tomo,Tokyo Simbun, Japan)
