Product-Information:
The twelve extended pieces which make up Albéniz' Iberia are not only the composer's greatest work, but also the greatest piano work to come out of Spain. Fired by his discovery of the music of Ravel and Debussy, Albéniz transformed his earlier salon style, which essentially produced charming but slight »picture postcards« of Spain, into a language which was much more complex – harmonically, texturally and pianistically – and which created a series of tone poems which capture the spiritual essence of Spain. The superabundance of the writing also makes the cycle one of the supreme virtuoso challenges, so who better to realize the beauty beyond the notes than Marc-André Hamelin who reveals here that the previous virtual monopoly of this work by Spanish pianists may have done more harm than good. The couplings here are also particularly appropriate in that we have a complete survey of all Albéniz' late piano music from 1897 until his death. La vega and España are clearly precursors of Iberia; they came after a five year gap in piano output and are the first works to show the composer's new style. Yvonne en visite!, in perhaps its first recording, is a charming and humorous work illustrating a child's reluctant piano playing. The collection closes with a new completion by William Bolcom of the unfinished Navarra, which probably reveals much more of Albéniz' original intention than the perfunctory ending by de Séverac hitherto used.
Rezensionen
»Here is the most immaculate, effortless and refined of all Iberias. Where others fight to stay afloat, Marc-André Hamelin rides the crest of every formidable wave with nonchalant ease and poetry … Hamelin's Albéniz [on the other hand], proudly but nonchalantly, raises a new and astonishing standard« (Gramophone Magazine)
»Hamelin again achieves the almost physically impossible with seeming ease. Albéniz's multiple layers are finely balanced, and apparently awkward textures come to life in a lucid acoustic with pace, grace and a constant sense of dance« (BBC Music Magazine)
»Albéniz infused his writing with the flamboyant rhythms and anguished melodies of flamenco, and Hamelin captures the authentic accent while dispatching the notes with astonishing technical bravura and outstanding musicianship. He may not replace de Larrocha, but all who love this music will want to add his interpretations to their collections« (The Sunday Times)
»Mr Hamelin commands an enormous range of touch and expression. He is as comfortable in the languid meanderings of Evocación as in the pointed dance rhythms of Rondeña and he modulates between such extremes with utter fluency. As part of this far-reaching sensibility, Mr Hamelin is always alert to atmosphere, which is everything in this music« (New York Times)
Rezensionen
FonoForum 10/05: »Marc-Andre Hamelin hat schon vielfach bewiesen, dass er ohne Fehl und Tadel auch dem Schwierigsten trotzt. Er zeigt, ohne Parfüm und mit erstaunlicher Leichtigkeit des Anschlags ein Höchstmaß an Schattierungsvermögen. Da hört man fast spanische Gitarren, da wird man Zeuge des Corpus-Christi-Festes, das sich wirklich vor dem geistigen Auge auftut.«- Tracklisting
