Description
This album presents a variety of pieces from Liszt and Schubert to entirely new music, written especially for this album.
"It was important for me to create this album as an attempt to express my personal state of being today as well as to reflect on our present reality. War, climate crisis, anxiety and aggression around us don't inspire me to entertain. Rather - to slow down. It is SLOW because I notice a rushing and ever-accelerating pace, in which we are often imprisoned. Therefore I invite you to SLOW down and allow music to do its magic". - Olga Jegunova
