Description:

Wilde Flang's album sheds new light on the musicality of Paganini and SchubertWilde Flang partners with Mikhail Lifitz in this album, which finds inspiration in the human voice and sheds new light on Paganini's demand for advanced performance techniques and Schubert's sensitive musicality. Schubert and Paganini, active in the early 19th century, led very different lives, but lived in diverse aesthetic worlds, and there are many links to be discovered between them. He achieved Paganini lived until 1840, 12 years after Schubert's death at only 31. In the spring of 1828, just a few months before Schubert's death, Schubert sold his household goods to buy an expensive ticket (and even bought one for a friend) to Paganini's Vienna concert. ) to hear Paganini in Vienna. There, Paganini's performance caused a sensation.Schubert's own concert on March 26 was a great success, but unfortunately, because of Paganini's limelight, the Viennese press gave it little coverage. Schubert, however, is said to have been thrilled by Paganini's performance, saying, "I heard angels' voices in the Adagio. What is fascinating to me is the contrast." An important connection between Schubert and Paganini is the inspiration of the human voice. There is a lot of virtuosity hidden in Schubert's violin music, which is very fine and delicate. Paganini was a very lyrical composer, he cherished the art of song, and composers like Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Liszt, and Lutoslawski all found inspiration in his work. I would associate him with sincerity, purity, and nobility. There is a religious purity in the caprice, and the cantabile is a sacred moment. It is more like a prayer," Vilde said. The song is brilliantly sung with a natural expression and sweet tone that is typical of Vilde Frang, who brings out high performance skills and beautiful melodies. Warner Music Japan
