The New York Times talks 1939 in their ‘Classical Playlist’! Here’s the paragraph:<\/p>\n
“The shadow of war and persecution hangs heavily over this deeply poignant recording of music written around 1939. The violist Teng Li brings a ripe, burnished sound and elegant command of phrasing to a fascinating program. Hindemith\u202c\u2019s intense Sonata for Viola and Piano is the only known quantity here, framed by a Concertino by the Belgian composer Joseph \u202a#\u200eJongen\u202c; wistful arrangements of love songs by Viktor \u202aUllmann\u202c, who perished in Auschwitz; and a pensive arrangement of \u201cThe Moon Reflected in Er-Quan\u201d by the Chinese erhu master Hua \u202aYanjun\u202c, known as Abing. A defiantly forward-looking Duo for Violin and Viola by Gideon \u202aKlein\u202c, another victim of the Holocaust, rounds out this thought-provoking disc.” (Corinna da Fonseca-Wollheim), full write-up here<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
