This album delves into the Eastern European landscapes through the intimate lens of violin chamber music. It features compositions by Enescu, Janáček, and Prokofiev, highlighting the region’s rich contribution to the classical music canon. The pieces reflect the stark realities of nations in turmoil, with the composers’ experiences of war and suffering influencing their creation. While some works portray the horror and terror of conflict, others offer solace in the sweet nostalgia of childhood memories. Each piece harbours a powerful and intimate narrative, weaving through realms of imagination, folklore, and emotional depth. Coco Tomita
