The Masonic movement is considered to have originated in the beginning of the 18th century. For this reason, the present release covers three centuries. The composers included are not only among the greatest musicians, but they are also renowned members of Masonic lodges. For example, Haydn and Mozart were members of "Zur wahren Eintracht" (True Harmony), and List was a member of "Zur Einigkeit" (Unity). The performers Ventseslav Nikolov and Ruzhka Tcharaktchieva are among the most distinguished Bulgarian musicians and laureates of prestigious international competitions. Currently they are respected members of the adjudicators’ committees of these competitions. Still giving concerts and making recordings of works from different epochs, they pass their experience to their students at the Prof. Pancho Vladigerov Academy of Music. The programme with music by Masonic composers is a clear example of their excellent performing skill and interpretation of styles !

Irina Georgieva started her musical career at the age of six in Sofia, Bulgaria, receiving the first prize in a regional music competition. She gave her first solo concert at the age of eight. Prizes follow from prestigious international competitions. While still a student at the National Academy of Music in Sofia she performed with the philharmonic orchestras of Sofia, Varna, Pleven, Shumen. In 2001 she won a scholarship from the “Gerber ten Bosch” Foundation and continued her studies in Switzerland at the Music Academy of Basel with Rudolf Buchbinder, who states: “Irina Georgieva is one of the most outstanding piano students encountered during my 35 years of teaching. Her excellent sound culture in connection with stupendous technique, instinctive sense of style, strong personality and charisma predict a great pianistic career for Irina Georgieva.” She brilliantly completed the Basel Music Academy (Concert and Soloist Diploma) having played an integral of works by Sergei Rachmaninoff. The pianist has participated in various competitions and has always been among the laureates. She has played in Switzerland, Italy, France, England, Morocco. Her repertoire includes music from the Baroque to the present. This is what the great piano teacher Lazar Berman says about her: “Irina Georgieva is a very talented artist. Her interpretations are always original, her sound is beautiful, her artistic potential boundless.”

Spanish and Portuguese Keyboard Music, Vol. 2 - Felicja Blumental, piano

Spanish and Portuguese Keyboard Music, Vol. 2 - Felicja Blumental, piano
ID: BR0022
CDs: 1
Type: CD
Collection: Baroque

Some may believe the music of 18th Century Iberian composers to be less interesting than the music from Germany, France and Italy of this period. However, these two volumes of keyboard music illustrate the originality of Spanish and Portuguese composers Angles, Albéniz, Cantallos, Carvalho, Ferrer, Freixanet, Jacinto, Seixas and Soler. At the beginning of the 18th Century, Louis XI was King of Spain. He felt little enthusiasm for Spanish national art and preferred foreign artists. Consequently, Italian singers and composers gradually influenced the aristocratic tastes and the court life in Spain. It was a similar situation in Portugal. When King Johan V (1707-1750) became ruler of Portugal, he set about cultivating the arts in the city of Lisbon. Portuguese musicians had the opportunity to take apprenticeships in Italy while Italian musicians, such as Domenico Scarlatti were welcomed into Lisbon to perform. The authoritative musical figures during this time were! men of the church. Father Antonio Soler was a friar, organist and composer as well as an important theoretician who dominated the musical scene in Spain. The first pianofortes were being manufactured and Soler was fortunate to have a piano at the monastery. Although he wrote for the organ, the compositional quality of his keyboard works show that he had the piano in mind. His Portuguese counterpart was José António Carlos de Seixas. Seixas became Portugal?s finest keyboard player of this period who bridged the gap between Baroque and Classical eras. Both composers did not simply duplicate Italian idioms, but developed and expanded the style while recalling their Spanish and Portuguese roots. They blended vocal-like melodies into quasi-contrapuntal lines and simple block harmonies. This formed a model on which classical composers such as Haydn and Mozart were to base their compositions.
