Product description

Dive into the captivating world of Karol Szymanowski with "Modern Times," a compelling collection of his orchestral and vocal works that showcases the composer's unique voice and innovative spirit. Released in 2016, this album presents a diverse range of compositions that highlight Szymanowski's mastery of both dramatic and lyrical forms.

The album opens with the dynamic "Concert Overture, Op. 12," setting the stage for a journey through Szymanowski's musical evolution. The centerpiece of the album is the "Symphonie concertante," a symphony that pushes the boundaries of traditional orchestral writing. This work, along with the enchanting "Slopiewnie" songs and the evocative "Nocturne & Tarantella," demonstrates Szymanowski's ability to blend folk influences with modernist techniques.

Performances by the Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz, conducted by Karl-Heinz Steffens, bring a sense of vitality and precision to these works. Soprano Marisol Montalvo and pianist Ewa Kupiec join the orchestra for the vocal pieces, adding layers of depth and expression. The album's rich sound and meticulous attention to detail make it an essential addition to any classical music enthusiast's collection.

"Modern Times" is a testament to Szymanowski's enduring legacy and his significant contributions to the classical music canon. Whether you're a longtime admirer of Szymanowski's work or a newcomer to his compositions, this album offers a rich and rewarding listening experience.

About Karol Szymanowski

Karol Szymanowski, born in 1882, was a pioneering Polish composer and pianist, celebrated as one of Poland's most significant musical figures since Frédéric Chopin. A key member of the modernist Young Poland movement, Szymanowski's work is characterised by its exotic and richly perfumed language, reflecting his unique artistic vision. Born into a family of landowners in Ukraine, his life and music were deeply influenced by the political and social upheavals of his time, particularly the reshaping of Europe after the First World War. Szymanowski's compositions, which span various genres within the classical tradition, are known for their individuality and profound emotional depth. His piano works, in particular, are renowned for their distinctive cycles and innovative approach. Beyond his compositions, Szymanowski was also a notable thinker and educator, leaving a lasting impact on Polish music and culture.
