发行时间: 1999年
专辑介绍:
Violinist Catherine Manoukian is now nearly 22 years old, but she was only 17 when she made this remarkable recording of Chopin transcriptions. Have you heard this yet? If you haven't, and you enjoy robust, mellifluous, artfully executed violin playing, then you certainly should. In 1994, Toronto-born Manoukian won the grand prize at the Canadian Music Competition, and since then she's performed with major orchestras and conductors, appeared at several of the big music festivals, and made a handful of well-received recordings. But on evidence of her commanding rendition of the disc's opening work--Behzad Ran*****aran's transcription of Chopin's Cello Sonata Op. 65--she deserves considerably more than the respectable attention she's so far attained. In the big opening movement of the sonata, she not only plays the notes with impressive accuracy and brilliant tone, but her authoritative bowing and well-organized phrasing show a maturity that bodes well for such a young artist.
Chopin actually never composed any pieces for violin. The whole point of this album is to re-arrange his solo piano work onto two instruments. It's a quite unique experience when you listen violin playing Nocturne, Op. 9, No. 2 in E Flat Major. Overall, it's a nice album since I don't know of many other recordings of these kinds of arrangements.
