Luigi Piovano; Aldo Orvieto; Japan Philharmonic Orchestra - Isang Yun: Works For Cello And Piano

With this album of Isang Yun�s music for cello and piano, Italian Cellist Luigi Piovano and Pianist Aldo Orvieto pay homage to the late Korean composer and the tragic course of his life.�The events that marked Isang Yun�s life emblematically show the miserable short-sightedness of the human being, unable to actauthentically and with love towards others, in striving for a common good and reach a common spiritual elevation.

When confronted with the exceptional musical depth and the dramatic power of Isang Yun�s music, words seem inappropriate as only music can simultaneously perform the miracle of reviving human tragedies and indicate solutions for humanity.

No music except that of Isang Yun can express these moods to such extent and is so rich in meanings for those interpreting it.

A powerful instinctual, passionate, and almost touchable nature emerges from his music.�
