The new album recorded by the piano duo of Ludmila Berlinskaya and Arthur Ancelle on the Melodiya label is dedicated to English music of the 20th century. This is the third release in the series “Two pianos Originals Project” presented by Ludmila Berlinskaya and Arthur Ancelle on Melodiya. Since 2011 the tandem of two remarkable pianists has captured the listeners’ hearts in Russia, Europe and Asia. Their joint performances and recordings have received international prizes and been acclaimed by music critics. If the first two releases were dedicated to original compositions in the genre of piano duet of Russian and French composers, this time the duo suggests to listeners to make a journey through Albion. The name of the album “B” like Britain ingeniously plays with the fact that the names of all composers begin with the same letter and all of them belong to British musical culture. The representatives of the so-called “English Musical Renaissance” Arnold Bax and York Bowen, a renowned classic of the twentieth century music Benjamin Britten, and a three-time Oscar nominee Richard Rodney Bennett with his combination of jazz and post-war avant-garde experiments – this is how the musicians see a half-century profile of British musical culture in the mirror of the genre of piano duet. The most demanding gourmets and a broader circle of classical music lovers alike will enjoy this surprise and paradoxical programme.

Ludmila Berlinskaya – Reminiscenza (2017)

Here is an album filled with piano reminiscences of the highest level: Russian pianist Ludmila Berlinskaya is descendant of an impressive dynasty of musicians (her father was a cellist and the founder of the Borodin Quartet) who grew up around some of the greatest geniuses of the Soviet Union − Rostropovich, Oistrakh, Goldenweiser, Flier, Temirkanov, Svetlanov, Rozhdestvensky, Kitayenko, Solzhenitsyn and Sakharov. Later, before launching her great international career, she didn’t think twice about working as Richter’s page-turner, before becoming a sort of “spiritual daughter” for the great master. Undeniably her piano technique, as clear as a diamond and devoid of any damper effect – polyphonic lines are held by the fingers, as they should be – is evocative of Richter’s. The album’s title draws from Medtner’s Sonata “Reminiscenza”, a wonderful masterpiece that is unfortunately never played, but the other three works, much like Medtner’s Sonata, end pianissimo with a certain sense of melancholy: Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 30, Ravel’s Valses nobles et sentimentales (Noble and Sentimental Waltzes), and Schumann’s Kreisleriana.
