Alexandra Ivanova - Sentiment: Works by Louis Couperin, Anita Mieze, Jacques Duphly, Jean-Philippe Rameau and Joseph-Nicolas-Pancrace Royer

Listening to Alexandra Ivanova's debut CD with GENUIN, we are able to experience the very essence of the harpsichord! The Russian pianist and harpsichordist presents herself in a juxtaposition of contemporary and early music that creates exciting reflections: the new seems familiar, while old seems excitingly new. Ivanova combines Couperin, Rameau, Duphly, and Royer with works by the Latvian composer Anita Mieze, born in 1980. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the associations between feeling and reason not only occupied the minds of French philosophers but also of great musicians: This extraordinarily sonorous CD revolves around these poles of baroque music and how they are reflected in modernity.
