Description
Bartók serves as the link between Schumann and Kurtág: when Kurtág says My mother tongue is Bartók, and Bartók's mother tongue was Beethoven" he is referring to the historically linked musical traditions of Germany and Austria, which are his special concern. In addition to this general connection, the works of Kurtág and Schumann reveal astonishing and fascinating affinities in terms of both literary and musical references..... --From the CD booklet notes by Hartmut Lück on Kashkashian: "... the best violist in the world." --New York Daily News "Her playing is notable for its songfulness, a weightless soaring that conveys a wealth of emotion." --Philadelphia Inquirer"
