Chopin:
Andante Spinato
Grande Polonaise Brillante op. 22

Franz Hummel:
Hypnosis – Piano Sonata No. 2

Franz Liszt:
Apres une Lecture de Dante – Fantasia quasi Sonata

Arno Babajanian:
Polyphonic Sonata

Atavistic Music:
Improvisation

On this CD, Angela Cholakian, who has become a synonym for passionate performances of new discoveries and original, radical interpretations of Romantic works, shows her creative talent in both these genres in a fascinating combination. Chopin and Liszt are contrasted with Babajanian’s obsessive “Polyphonic Sonata” and Hummel’s meditative, virtuoso Piano Sonata “Hypnosis”. Cholakian’s emotionality radiates through every bar.
