Page 152 - Alison Balsom Quiet City FULL BOOK

Dębicz juxtaposes his own original compositions, in a musical language best described as
"cinematic", with two large-scale works for piano - Bach's Keyboard Concerto No. 5 and an
arrangement of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue for piano and wind quintet. The latter may be
particularly alluring to Gershwin fans who have had their curiosity aroused by Alison
Balsom's recent trumpet-centric version of the Rhapsody.

Russian Ballads

Gabriel Schwabe (cello), Roland Pöntinen (piano)
Evgeny Kissin has acquired near-legendary status as a pianist, but in recent years has also
explored composition himself. One of the fruits of his efforts, his Cello Sonata No. 2,
occupies pride of place on this album alongside works for cello and piano from Prokofiev and
Shostakovich that make full use of the cello's uniquely broad expressive range.
