Description:
Piano Works by Finnish-born Composers Hannikainen, Melikant, and Sibelius Terhi Dostal (1978-) is a Finnish pianist. She studied with Erik T. Tavaschelna and Matti Raekallio at the Sibelius Akademi and with Boris Petrushansky at the International Piano Academy in Imola, Italy. He has a wide repertoire, especially Brahms, and is active as a soloist and member of the NIX Piano Quartet. This "Finnish Piano Works" is her second solo album, following "Finnish Impressions" (Alba / ABCD-514). Ilmari Hannikainen is known for her piano pieces and songs in the styles of romanticism and impressionism. The "Capricious Variations" is one of his larger works. It consists of 19 variations on the "original theme" of "Andante mysterioso. The "Three Pretty Waltzes" is one of his most popular pieces, along with the "Impressions.The three pieces are the graceful and melancholic "Kwazi Allegretto," "Allegretto Grazioso," in which "echoes of Chopin and perhaps Scriabin" are heard, and "Andante et rubato," which also uses "jazz-like dissonances. Arle Merikanto was one of the most important Finnish composers of the 20th century. He studied with Max Reger in Leipzig, and in the 1920s, when National Romanticism was the prevailing style, he produced works that were perceived as "reactionary" by the audiences and critics of the time. With the help of his father, Oscar, who was a popular composer, he continued to compose. The "Six Piano Pieces" was published in 1919, before he left the late Romantic style for a more reactionary one. The music of impressionism and neoclassicism, with hints of Debussy and Ravel, is regarded as a masterpiece, hidden behind the orchestral works that made Are Merikant famous. Sibelius' "Three Sonatinas" was written the year after his Fourth Symphony. The "No. 1 in F-sharp minor," which is the most recognizable work by "Sibelius the Symphonist," and the "No. 2 in E major," the most cheerful and brightest of the three, were written the year after his Fourth Symphony.The "No. 3 in B flat minor" is a work in which Sibelius has been noted to have explored the same "innovations in form" that he later found in his Fifth Symphony. It is said that the "Andante," the second movement, which resembles a "funeral march," and the "Allegretto," the third movement, which is reminiscent of a "Baroque jig," could have been fused into "one movement. Finlandia" is performed in a piano arrangement by Sibelius himself. The commentary on the piece in the booklet (in German and English) was written by Terhi Dostal. King International
