Follow on Google News | Alexander Anisimov and Beata Szalwinska – the comeback in styleBy: Face !T At the beginning of June, the latest musical project of the world-famous duo – the exceptionally gifted Polish pianist Beata Szalwinska and the great opera bass, Alexander Anisimov – appeared on the European music market. The album "Rachmaninoff Romances" includes as many as 28 songs by Rachmaninoff, including duets (23 songs) and solo transcriptions for piano (5 songs) written by Sergei Rachmaninoff and Frederic Meinders himself, and interpreted by Beata Szalwinska. The album was released in cooperation with Hänssler Classic music publishing house and has already started collecting positive reviews from the music world and experts both on the work of Sergei Rachmaninoff himself and classical music in general. Alain Steffenna in a review for the portal pizzicato.lu wrote, "It is a perfectly interpreted and thoughtful album with the participation of two amazing musicians and at the same time a work that will go down in history among the greatest recordings of Sergei Rachmaninoff's music." Lukasz Debowski, the editor-in-chief of the website polskaplyta- "Rachmaninoff Romances" is the result of the collaboration of two exceptional artists who first performed together during a charity concert for Ukraine 8 years ago. Alexander Anisimov, naturally more expressive in everyday life, easily transfers this part of his character to his work. As a result, the interpretations of the songs he performs breathe enormous liveliness and provide an intensity of impressions. The performances of this outstanding bass take the audience on a journey to another dimension. This contrasts sharply with the delicate sensitivity of Beata Szalwinska's playing, which always contains enormous layers of musical poetry in her performances. www.jpc.de End
