Just recorded 2nd part of Beethoven sonatas cycle at @teldexstudio with @vadux and fantastic producer Martin Sauer ✨️
A very special journey we had with recording op.30 (no. 6, 7 & 8). Stepping on that wooden podium, having all the nobility and intimacy of this amazing studio, feeling free exploring (one of my favorite phrases by Martin - "you had several beautiful variants and they all are *quite* different") was something I will never forget. This time and space was filled with unprecedented love and appreciation of these pieces of music. Also, I found myself enjoying recording process more than before - perhaps, getting some experience?
There was some magic happening... and it was captured. The final result will be there, but the very recording unlocked some new levels for me as a musician.
I'll tell more soon about the preparation of the recording, which I am deeply grateful to Gabriele Riccobono for. His generosity in sharing his knowledge shaped a lot my views recently, especially on Beethoven.
Gratitude goes to the whole @alpha_classics team for making this happen, and, of course, we are immensely inspired by the research and insights which Clive Brown and Neal Peres Da Costa brought for their edition of Beethoven sonatas for Bärenreiter. And not the least: it's an honour to be an accompanying violin for Vadym in these "Sonatas per pianoforte"!
Ruhe Aufnahme! A great few days mixing my piano and violin concertos @teldexstudio with the wonderful producer and gentleman that is René Möller. Very excited about this recording made with the @nationalsymphonyorchestrairl and the incredible soloists @e.j.mcc and @stephenwaarts . If you look carefully enough, you can see Simon Rattle rehearsing with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe through the control room window in the 4th picture while René and I were occupied with the mix. #nonesuchrecords #teldexstudios

Schnittke wrote this sonata in 1994, after surviving three clinical deaths from a stroke a decade earlier, and composing through years of deteriorating health.
What draws me to this piece is a paradox I can't quite resolve: it is simultaneously cold and deeply soulful. Music that cuts through artifice and pulls you into the present moment.
The five movements trace a sort of palindrome, moving from stillness into agitation, arriving at a central lamentation, then retracing those steps back into stillness.

This is a Prélude non mesuré (without measure) by Jean-Henri d’Anglebert - written like an improvisation, full of unexpected harmonic turns and beautiful ornamentation.

Mosolov composed most of his works before being sent to the Gulag. He composed during wartime, and his music still matters today!
Thank you @artists__first and @teldexstudio for this great opportunity!
