Sanctuary - Melodies For Voice And Piano By Albena Petrovic

Description

When a CD album bears the title SANCTUARY, it is almost obvious that it is in the spirit of the sacred; yes, it is, but not sacred merely in the religious sense; rather sacred and humanist, sacred and pacifist, sacred and pantheist. So sacred and so profane at the same time. Prayers are expressed in all religions - to remain human, to remain in peace, love and peace. This is the one favour that everyone asks from their respective god. And that's the message of all 12 tracks on the album. Because our time demands it of us - to share the values that are most important to human beings. The 12 poems set in music and which are the source of inspiration, mainly come from the beginning of the 20th century, but all reflect expressionism and result from the crucial problems of the last century, which are very relevant today. The music is often inspired by expressionist aesthetics, without borrowing expressionist musical language; The artist works with stylistic elements that are specific to her. Albena Petrovic Vratchanska is a Luxembourgish composer of Bulgarian origin. Anna Bineta Diouf is a German-Senegalese Mezzo-Soprano. On piano we hear the Austrian Pianist Eugenia Radoslava.
