K E Y W O R D S , the title of this two-part concept album, uses the English word “key” ambiguously: it stands for both the piano key and the key. With one exception, key words from piano music of the 20th and 21st centuries can be found here, in a very personal selection with some first recordings. They want to pursue a fundamental question of musical interpretation and composition, “how to address people with music.” This does not mean the idea of somehow making music speak. Rather, they are “speaking” works themselves, i.e. piano music that contains specific or hidden messages, refers to poems, includes language, words or syllables, has dialogues and dialogues, can be read as a diary or tells entire stories. And it is also the piano instrument itself that appears in “voices” – whispering, stuttering, calling, hesitating.
