Ivana Gavric (piano)About
‘Chopin’ is a highly personal album for Ivana, as she explains: “the pervasive nostalgia of the Mazurkas speaks to me the most. My own heritage probably also explains my attraction to their Eastern European-inspired song. I have the fondest memories of dancing around my grandmother’s kitchen to tapes of polkas and mazurkas which she had brought back from a trip to Poland. Likewise of hearing my mother play many of the pieces featured on this album.”
Focussing on the early Mazurkas - she stops in 1838 - for their charming more-rustic and less-stylistic qualities, Ivana adds: “I have decided not to present them in chronological order, but, rather, to mirror the contour of a recital - which hopefully will cast a spotlight on some of the lesser known numbers.”
‘Chopin’ looks set to reinforce her formidable reputation and to become one of the most vital albums from a British artist this year. Edition Classics is proud to collaborate with a truly unique talent, in a career that goes from strength to strength.
“playing of an altogether extraordinary calibre” - BBC Music Magazine (‘In the Mists’, BBC Music Magazine Award Winner 2011)
“Gavric’s is, without question, the greatest and most revelatory performance of this extraordinarily original work I have ever heard. She is superlative here... beautifully expressive, driven by a sure understanding of what this music is about... A most impressive recital disc, outstandingly well recorded” - Robert Matthew-Walker, IRR Outstanding
