Gems of Eastern Europe - Bartok / Lepianka / Prokofiev / Tarcholik CD

The socio-political situation in Europe in the second half of the 19th and the early 20th centuries facilitated the development of national identities and distinctiveness of individual nations. A significant role in this field fell to music. Historians of music differentiate between two distinct trends: the mainstream current and the peripheral trend (the latter being also labelled national), in which the social role of music was fundamental. References to a nations past, its heroes, literature, customs, language and folklore resulted in development of national schools (styles) of composition such as: Spanish (Sarasate, Albniz), Scandinavian (Gade, Grieg), English (Parry, Stanford), Czech (Smetana, Dvork), Hungarian (Erkel, Mosonyi), Russian (The Mighty Handful), and Polish (Chopin, Moniuszko). This new release from violinist Piotr Tarcholik and pianist Monika Wilimska-Tarcholik explores the nationalistic music of Eastern Europe, including works form Prokofiev, Bartok, Szymanowski, and Lepianka.Additional Info: Personnel: Brian Bee Frank (vocals); Andr? H?ggund, Paul Chapman (guitar); Denny Demarchi (keyboards); Anders L.A. R?nnblom (bass guitar); Morgan Evans (drums).
