B 3-Bach-Brahms-Beethoven - Various Composers

Pianist Alexei Kornienko says of this recording:At the centre of our present recording lies the romantic perception although strictly speaking, only Brahms can be credited to the romantic period, it is much rather the interpretation of very personal and intimate pieces, Bach and Beethoven included.From an early age on, I developed a special relationship to Brahms, played and performed many of his works, and in this context it was very interesting for me to create my own cycle of his Intermezzi. Although they are from different times from Brahms's life and thus from different emotional phases, it feels to me that they harmonise ideally with each other, as well as in the overall program. They form the core of the idea for this CD.
