About

Lisa Batiashvili and Yannick Nézet-Séguin join forces for a fantastic new album exploring some of the most romantic music ever written. This new collaboration features evocative music inspired by late-Romantic literature and superb soloists – Szymanowski’s First Violin Concerto, Chausson’s Poème and works by Franck and Debussy.

“Music, just like art and literature, has always been the most amazing vehicle for artists to share secret messages and speak about their hidden loves and untold stories.” – Lisa Batiashvili

Reviews

No slouch when it comes to old-fashioned bravura, Lisa Batiashvili favours an interpretative line that is easier to experience than to describe, not self-effacing so much as intimate, flexible, unhurried. ... The hermetic confidences of Szymanowski’s First Violin Concerto, very much the driver of this latest release, suit Batiashvili down to the ground. Though not a work she played earlier in her career ... she makes the piece her own through the subtle shading of her sound, an ardently singing line and a refusal to exaggerate. ... Strongly recommended.  David Gutman
