Immerse yourself in the timeless elegance of classical piano with Alicia de Larrocha's captivating album, a testament to her virtuosity and the enduring power of the genre. This collection, spanning a rich 1 hour and 53 minutes, is a journey through the masterful compositions of Chopin, Bach, Schumann, and more, performed with the precision and passion that Alicia de Larrocha is renowned for.
The album opens with Chopin's iconic "24 Préludes, Op. 28," a series of brief, expressive pieces that showcase the full range of the pianist's emotional depth and technical prowess. From the tender "Raindrop" Prelude to the somber "Funeral March," each piece is a miniature masterpiece, beautifully rendered by de Larrocha.
The album also features Bach's "English Suite No. 2" and "French Suite No. 6," demonstrating de Larrocha's ability to bring clarity and warmth to the Baroque master's intricate counterpoint. Her interpretation of the "Italian Concerto" is equally compelling, with its lively "Allegro" and serene "Andante" movements.
Schumann's "Carnaval" rounds out the collection, a whimsical suite that de Larrocha performs with a delightful blend of playfulness and sophistication. The album also includes two Bach chorale preludes, "Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe" and "Liebster Jesu, wir sind hier," arranged for solo piano, showcasing de Larrocha's ability to infuse sacred music with profound expressiveness.
Recorded in 2025 and released under UME - Global Clearing House, this album is a must-listen for any classical music enthusiast. Alicia de Larrocha's artistry shines through in every note, making this a truly unforgettable musical experience.
