Description
Pianist Yulianna Avdeeva makes her Pentatone debut with Resilience, presenting music by
Szpilman, Shostakovich, Weinberg and Prokofiev, composers who – each in their own way –
maintained themselves in times of great instability. The focal point of this album is W?adys?aw
Szpilman, a Polish Jew who survived World War II thanks to the power of his music, and is
widely known as the title hero of Roman Polanski’s award-winning film The Pianist. Incited by
the unique opportunity to play on Szpilman’s house piano, this recording project helped
Avdeeva to cope with the challenges of our current times, and it may offer fortitude and
consolation to listeners as well.
A pianist of fiery temperament and virtuosity, Yulianna Avdeeva plays with power, conviction,
and sensibility, having won over audiences all over the world.
