Description:

A tapestry of nostalgia woven by the desire for an "inner homeland The seventh release in Medjieva's new Chopin series is a double disc set of mazurkas (51 pieces) and the early masterpiece "Rondo in Mazurka Style". The listener, who has been invited to the world of 19th century salons by the opening "Mazurka Rondo," will be able to listen to the mazurkas in the order of their numbers and appreciate the changes in Chopin's compositional style. Medjieva's performance, filled with a fresh sensibility, is a straightforward performance in the tradition of Chopin's playing. The album's value is further enhanced by the gorgeous sound of the vintage 1925 Steinway (CD135).
