Description

Before he was completely overwhelmed by love for composing, Leos Jan�?ek pursued a career as a virtuoso pianist. He was closely familiar with the instrument, which served for him to share his innermost emotions and feelings. Jan�?ek wrote his first opus, 'Thema con variazioni', at the age of 26, when he was studying at the Leipzig Conservatory. The miniature piece 'A Recollection' is one of his last scores. The composer conceived his three essential piano works, '1.X. 1905', 'On an Overgrown Path' and 'In the Mists', between 1900 and 1912, which was a difficult phase in his life. They are perhaps the most personal, most intimate pieces he wrote. Jan�?ek was inspired by the sound of the cimbalom, an instrument he often heard when collecting folk songs in Moravia. The genes of the pianist Jan Bartos evidently bear the traces of the ample musical tradition of his ancestors, including his grandfather, a cimbalom player. The legacy of folk music and the Silesian origin is what Jan�?ek and Bartos have in common. In his account of Jan�?ek's music, the pianist reveals a profound musicological insight, as well as a fascinating intuition.
