  • Description

    An original and challenging selection of Berceuses, written by 19-th and 20-th century composers for piano. The characteristics of the Berceuse (Lullaby, Wiegenlied) are basically quiet and soothing, aimed at putting a child to sleep. The music on this recording however display a wide range of emotions: from idyllic and childlike, to brooding, even menacing atmospheres, reflecting the times it was written in: a fascinating journey! Anna Geniushene was born in 1991 in Moscow, where she graduated with full honors from the State Conservatory. She was a finalist in the Leeds Competition in 2018, and the Silver Medallist of the Cliburn Competition in 2022. She is an active international soloist and chamber music player, and form a duo with her husband Lukas Geniusas.
