Sonáta pre Violončelo a klavír hudobného skladateľa Pavla Kršku predstavuje dielo, v ktorom sa oba nástroje stretávajú v rovnocennom a premyslenom hudobnom dialógu. Skladateľ vytvára priestor pre široké výrazové možnosti, od tichých lyrických polôh až po dynamicky bohaté a energické pasáže. Hudobná výstavba pôsobí prirodzene a umožňuje poslucháčovi vnímať sonátu ako celok, ktorý je jasný vo forme a zároveň bohatý na farbu a atmosféru.

Interpret diela Andrej Gál k dielu napísal:
"Krškov hudobný vkus a vycibrený cit nechávajú v intímnom rozhovore naplno rozoznieť širokú škálu farebných kombinácii dialogickej hry violončela s klavírom. Vznikol pútavý príbeh sonáty, v ktorej violončelo spolu s klavírom prechádza všetkými registrami a ich zvukovými odtieňmi, aby spoločne vytvárali neobyčajné hudobné obrazy. Som rád, že som mohol spoznať toto dielo so silnou autorskou výpoveďou a zahrať si ho v spolupráci s vynikajúcim Petrom Pažickým. Ďakujem!"


Sonáta pre Vilončelo a klavír je súčasťou projektu Pavol Krška Sonáty, ktorá vyšla s podporou Hudobného fondu, v profesionálnej nahrávke od Pavlik Records.


[EN: The Sonata for Cello and Piano by composer Pavol Krška presents a work in which both instruments meet in an equal and carefully shaped musical dialogue. The composer creates space for a wide range of expression, from quiet lyrical moods to dynamically rich and energetic passages. The musical architecture feels natural and allows the listener to perceive the sonata as a whole that is clear in form yet rich in color and atmosphere.

The interpreter of the work, Andrej Gál, wrote:
“Krška’s musical taste and refined sensitivity allow the intimate conversation to fully resonate with a wide palette of tonal combinations in the dialogical interplay between cello and piano. A captivating story of the sonata has emerged, in which the cello and piano traverse all registers and their sonic shades to create extraordinary musical images together. I am glad that I had the opportunity to discover this work with its strong authorial message and to perform it in collaboration with the excellent Peter Pažický. Thank you!”

The Sonata for Cello and Piano is part of the project Pavol Krška Sonatas, released with the support of the Music Fund, in a professional recording by Pavlik Records.]

Trisha Virdi is a pianist and composer for concert and visual media, whose work explores the meeting point of narrative, harmony, and cross-disciplinary collaboration. She began her piano journey at the age of 4, later pursuing her passion for composition at Berklee College of Music, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Film Scoring with minors in Video Game Scoring and Visual Culture and New Media Studies. She is currently studying for her master’s degree in Music Composition at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.

Her professional experience spans a wide range of projects in film scoring, arranging, music prep and orchestration, collaborating with directors, ensembles, and instrumentalists across multiple disciplines. Trisha’s music draws inspiration from both the classical traditions of composers such as Debussy and Bach and the cinematic sound worlds of Michael Giacchino, John Powell, and John Williams. This blend allows her to shape a distinct and versatile sonic palette suited to the stage, the screen, and beyond.

In addition to her compositional career, Trisha is passionate about education, with experience teaching music composition, theory, ear training, etc. Having lived and studied internationally; in Japan, India, the United States, and the United Kingdom, she brings a global perspective to her artistic and pedagogical work.

A note about AI assist:

Regarding all my instrumentals, I composed the original works and possess the original manuscripts.  

My compositions are the source material, and for AI assist where used, I create the prompts and style instructions (which is time consuming and require hours of trial and error) at suno.com to produce the final version of the works which I feel are best. What you hear finally is at times the best of perhaps dozens of variations after much work is put in to produce the final outcome.  I try to find the right balance between what I composed originally, and what I envision is perhaps a better result with the assistance of AI.  I also aim for a realistic reproduction should live performance ever be a consideration.

For songs with Lyrics, I am the lyricist in every case, and the music is built from AI where I provide specific instructions as to style, genre, tone, key, and so forth. 

Some tracks are exceptions to the above descriptive process, and when this occurs that track itself will include how the track was developed in its description.
