Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Estonian composer and pianist Artur Lemba with "Lemba: Chamber Music, Vol. 1," a captivating collection of his lesser-known yet profoundly evocative works. Released on June 6, 2025, by Toccata Classics, this album spans a rich 64 minutes and is performed by the virtuoso duo of Triin Ruubel on violin and Sten Lassmann on piano.
The album showcases a diverse range of compositions, including sonatinas, sonatas, mazurkas, and more, each piece a testament to Lemba's unique musical voice. Highlights include the playful "Violin Sonatina No. 1" with its Allegro giocoso and Canzonetta movements, the lyrical "Berceuse," and the intricate variations of "Violin Sonata No. 2." The album also features the romantic "Poème d'amour," performed twice in different interpretations, offering a dual perspective on Lemba's expressive depth.
