Alessio Bax, renowned for his exquisite pianism, invites you into a world of serenity and beauty with his album "Lullabies for Mila." Released on January 8, 2016, under Signum Records, this collection of classical piano pieces is a testament to Bax's virtuosity and his ability to evoke profound emotions through his playing. The album spans a diverse range of composers and styles, from the delicate lyricism of Grieg's "Lyric Pieces, Book 5, Op. 54: Nocturne" to the timeless elegance of Beethoven's "Sonata No. 14 in C-Sharp Minor, Op. 27, No. 2 'Moonlight': II. Allegretto."
Bax's interpretations are both sensitive and insightful, bringing a fresh perspective to well-loved pieces such as Tchaikovsky's "Vocalise, Op. 34, No. 14" and Mozart's "Piano Concerto No. 27 in B-Flat Major, K. 595: II. Larghetto." The album also features lesser-known gems, like the enchanting "Sheep May Safely Graze" by Bach, arranged by Egon Petri, and the introspective "Prelude for Left Hand Alone, Op. 9" by Godowsky.
With a duration of just over an hour, "Lullabies for Mila" is a soothing and contemplative journey through the realms of classical piano music. Bax's mastery of the instrument is evident in every note, making this album a captivating experience for both seasoned classical music enthusiasts and newcomers alike. Whether you're seeking relaxation or inspiration, Alessio Bax's "Lullabies for Mila" offers a rich and rewarding listening experience.
