Ignaz Friedman, a virtuoso pianist renowned for his interpretive depth and technical brilliance, presents a captivating collection of Mendelssohn's "Songs Without Words" and other masterpieces. Released on Naxos in 2004, this album offers a rich tapestry of classical piano music, spanning a little over an hour and thirteen minutes. Friedman's artistry shines through in his renditions of Mendelssohn's lyrical and evocative "Songs Without Words," showcasing the composer's ability to convey profound emotions through instrumental music. The album also features the complete Violin Sonata No. 9 in A Major, Op. 47, known as the "Kreutzer," performed with a sense of drama and nuance that highlights Friedman's mastery of the piano. Additionally, the inclusion of the second Hungarian Rhapsody by Liszt adds a dynamic and virtuosic finale to the collection. Friedman's nuanced phrasing, delicate touch, and powerful expression make this album a testament to his enduring legacy as one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century.
