Lars Thorvald ha tre amori nella vita: il suo lavoro di chef, sua moglie Cynthia e la figlia appena nata, Eva. Ma quando Cynthia, stufa della cucina del Midwest, si innamora del vino (e di un raffinato sommelier) e li lascia, Lars non si perde d'animo e decide di dedicare tutta la vita alla figlia insegnandole i segreti della sua passione culinaria. Così Eva trova consolazione e felicità nei sapori esotici che il padre le fa conoscere: dal merluzzo salato ed essiccato marinato nella liscivia ai peperoncini piccanti ricoperti di cioccolato. E scopre di avere un dono rarissimo che si presenta solo una volta in una generazione: un palato eccezionale per i gusti piccanti. Il suo talento si trasforma presto in un lavoro e lei diventa lo chef misterioso che si nasconde dietro il menu del ristorante più alla moda del paese..

Busoni's transcriptions of Bach have long been one of the mainstays of the piano repertoire. Bach himself worshipped the music of the Danish- (or Swedish-) born Dieterich Buxtehude (16371707), famously walking 250 miles to Lübeck to hear him play. The Liszt student August Stradal (18601930) obviously shared that admiration, transcribing ten of Buxtehudes most imposing organ works for piano, thus creating alongside Bach-Busoni a corpus of grandiose and virtuoso Baroque music for the modern concert grand that has somehow remained almost entirely unknown. Meilin Ai studied for her Doctor of Musical Arts degree in piano performance with Joseph Banowetz at the University of North Texas and is now a full-time faculty member of the Conservatory of Music of the Sichuan Normal University in China.

Although Liszt’s thirteen symphonic poems exist in two-piano transcriptions prepared by the composer himself, it was his Czech student August Stradal (1860–1930) who transcribed twelve of them for solo piano – versions which demand almost superhuman virtuosity. Stradal died before he could tackle the last of the symphonic poems, Von der Wiege bis zum Grabe; Risto-Matti Marin has made good that lacuna with his own virtuoso transcription, and adds six of Stradal’s transcriptions of Liszt songs for good measure.

Although Liszts thirteen symphonic poems exist in two-piano transcriptions prepared by the composer himself, it was his Czech student August Stradal (1860-1930) who was to transcribe them for solo piano versions which demand almost superhuman virtuosity. As the late Malcolm MacDonald writes in his booklet essay, Stradals versions transform these revolutionary orchestral compositions into viable and effective piano works, faithfully preserving their masterly musical substance.

For his new Deutsche Grammophon album, Icelandic pianist Víkingur Ólafsson explores the wellspring of Johann Sebastian Bach’s keyboard music, delivering experimental, innovative and timeless performances: Víkingur Ólafsson is a musical free spirit with a mission. He first made the classical world sit up and listen in early 2017 with his recording of solo piano works by Philip Glass – a fascinating journey through the time and space of their minimalist structures. Glass is now followed by Bach. Set for release in September, Ólafsson’s second Deutsche Grammophon album, the pithily entitled Bach, contains a mixture of original works and transcriptions, which the pianist has woven together in intriguing style.

Excerpts from Wagner operas have, on countless occasions, been transcribed for piano. A fairly long list of transcribers could be made, starting with Joseph Rubinstein, the first transcriber of an extract from Parsifal, going on through Bülow to Brassin, then from Carl Tausig to August Stradal, to speak only of those who were pupils of Liszt. It is an established fact that Liszt, the greatest master of transcription and paraphrase, made very little use of Wagner’s works. In this highly-regarded recording the transcription honours are shared between Liszt and Kocsis.
