Maria Carreras invites you into the enchanting world of classical piano with her album "Fleurettes. Piano Essentials from the Golden Age." This exquisite collection, released on November 9, 2023, under the Novus Promusica label, showcases a diverse range of compositions that span from timeless classics to lesser-known gems. With a duration of 46 minutes, the album is a concise yet captivating journey through the golden age of piano music.
Carreras' virtuosity shines as she interprets pieces by renowned composers, including Bach's Partita No. 1 and Handel's "Xerxes: Largo." The album also features beautiful works by lesser-known composers such as "Alt Wiener Tanzweisen: Liebesleid (Love's Sorrow)" and "Echoes of the Andes." Each track is a testament to Carreras' technical prowess and her ability to evoke deep emotion through her playing.
The album opens with a delicate and lyrical piece, "Lyrische Stucke, Op. 43: No. 6 to Spring (An Den Fruling)," setting the tone for the rest of the collection. The "Moments Musicaux, Op. 94: No. 3, in F Minor" offers a moment of introspection, while "Fleurette" adds a touch of whimsy and charm. The "Brazilian Dances, Op. 13: No. 4, Galhofeira" brings a lively and rhythmic energy to the album, showcasing Carreras' versatility.
"Fleurettes. Piano Essentials from the Golden Age" is not just a collection of piano pieces; it's a celebration of the piano's rich history and the enduring appeal of classical music. Maria Carreras' masterful interpretations bring new life to these timeless compositions, making this album a treasure for both seasoned classical music enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
