Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of classical music with Hans-Peter Stenzl's forthcoming album, "Grand-mondain," set to release on January 10, 2025, under the Genuin label. This captivating collection of choral works spans a diverse range of compositions, each meticulously arranged for piano four hands, offering a unique and intimate listening experience.
The album opens with Maurice Ravel's whimsical "La belle excentrique," a ballet suite that showcases Stenzl's dynamic interpretation and technical prowess. Following this, the beloved "Ma mère l'Oye" (Mother Goose) suite by Ravel transports listeners into a fairytale realm with its charming and evocative melodies. The album also features a polka from Tchaikovsky's Ballet Suite No. 2, arranged by Lev Atovmyan, adding a touch of Russian flair to the collection.
A highlight of the album is the "Song of the Great Rivers, Op. 95," a waltz arranged for piano four hands, which flows with a sense of grandeur and majesty. Additionally, the album includes selections from Robert Schumann's "Aus aller Herren Länder, Op. 23," a delightful set of character pieces inspired by various national dances.
With a total runtime of 52 minutes, "Grand-mondain" is a testament to Hans-Peter Stenzl's versatility and artistry. Whether you're a seasoned classical music enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, this album promises a rich and rewarding auditory journey.
