The first volume (Claves CD 50-2707) was a huge success, receiving, among other accolades, a Choc award from Monde de la Musique. Pianist Joanna Brzezinska is back with a new collection of solo pieces by the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos.

Such is Brazil - sentimental and powerful, ingenuous and wild; ineffably gentle and yet infinitely forceful. Heitor Villa-Lobos succeeded in all his works, and particularly in those gathered here, in bringing these extremes together: languor and vigour, the caressing hand and the closed fist, the sun and the moon.” As of the first bars, Joanna Brzezinska’s piano wafts you away…
