Alexander Scriabin: Prelude Op. 11 No. 11

This is a beautiful arrangement of the popular song "A Thousand Years" (Christina Perry) by the Piano Guys.  This cello/piano duo is a popular option for weddings in the St. Louis area.  This is a great song to use as a combination bridesmaids / bridal processional.  The Bridesmaids come out and the bride waits in the wings until the build and comes out in a climactic entrance.   Often there is not a dry eye in the place when this is pulled off correctly!

“...the elegance and immaculate suaveness of a Heifetz or Oistrakh” — Natal Daily News

Distinguished South African violinist Piet Koornhof’s third recording for Delos highlights (in keeping with the title) virtuoso showpieces for his instrument, both well-known and rare.

In this 2-CD set, Piet tackles some of the most brilliant and technically challenging repertoire for violin ever written. We hear glittering masterpieces by fabled masters of the instrument: Henryk Wienawski, Fritz Kreisler, and Eugene Ÿsaye. On the more rarely performed side, we get highly worthwhile violin treasures by, among others, Glazunov, Kroll, Taneyev, Rota, and Karayev – as well as a particularly fascinating cycle by Eduard Toldrà.

Piet’s jaw-dropping virtuosity and  ery interpretations are sensitively supported by his compatriot, pianist Bernarda Vorster. Together they have crafted a beautifully performed program that will appeal in particular to violinists and fans of the instrument, as well as an awe- inspiring listening experience for the rest of us.

Alexander Scriabin: Waltz in A-Flat Major Op. 38

Dirk Maassen composes wonderful short piano pieces inspired by contemporary composers such as Yann Tiersen and Ludovico Einaudi. 

I took on his invitation to record any of his piano pieces, and told him I would record 'Addio'... just to find out that there was no score! ... So after working directly with him the score was created and here is my take on it.
