George Enescu:

Dinu Lipatti:
Cinq Chansons de Verlaine, Op. 9
Quatre Mélodies

Violeta Dinescu:
Mein Auge ist zu allen sieben Sphären zurückgekehrt (Dante)

Dinu Lipatti – even today this name immediately elicits a murmur of admiration from musicians. Dinu Lipatti, one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century, whose interpretations, with their authenticity and clarity, have led to an admiration which borders on the mystical. “It was no longer piano playing, it was music, released from all earthly weight” (Herbert von Karajan).

This CD leads us firstly from Lipatti, who was also a composer and whose two song cycles are the central works of this CD, to the “Sept Chansons“ of his patron George Enescu. A second path leads us to Violeta Dinescu. She was always inspired by Lipatti's piano playing and his "unbelievable richness of colours" (Dinescu).

It was an initiative by Jenny Abel which led her to compose her Song Scene “Mein Auge ist zu allen sieben Sphären zurückgekehrt“ for Dinu Lipatti's 100th birthday. Thus, this CD, which comprises of works by these three Romanian composers, can be seen as a Hommage a Dinu Lipatti, whose fame as a pianist leads us easily to forget that he was also a notable composer.
