  • Description

    First Recording of Leopold Wallner's music for viola and harp. Born in Ukraine, Franz Liszt was his godfather. In 1866 he came to Brussels to pursue his university studies, where he later developed his career as a teacher and composer. Chopin and Liszt, are the inspiration of romanticism on his music.

    Rachel Talitman: harp

    Pierre Henri Xuereb: viola

    "When Rachel plays, I feel taken back in time to that breathless moment when this gentle giant's range of possibilities was first discovered. Rachel plays deliberately, taking nothing for granted, with that quality we all search for - that this is the very first moment the music has been heard." - Harp Column
