Description
Pianist Juliana Steinbach performs works by Liszt, Debussy and Mussorgsky.
The landscapes, images and scenes presented in this program give rise to a whole series of visions, impressions and evocations. The performer becomes a poet, a painter, a sculptor of sounds, a sensitive and alert dreamer in Liszt and Debussy, then a story-teller and an actor who projects a thousand different faces in Mussorgsky. While the three composers' initial intention (in Jeux d'eau à la Villa d'Este, Images and Pictures) appears to have been a descriptive one, the aesthetic aim clearly goes far beyond the mere imitation or recreation in sound of a landscape or a scene. For the composer, it is a question of sublimating the impression received, while the interpreter embodies it in every sense; the performer paints a picture, immerses himself in it and imperceptibly becomes that picture.
