Extraordinary, highly virtuoso compositions for piano and cello are behind the title theme Reflections. What do you associate with the term “reflection”? Do you think of the physical phenomena in the “rebound” of light, sound and warmth or do you define the word as a psychological process of mental consideration and critical review? Kathrin Inbal-Bogensberger and Tatiana Liakh take inspitration from the reflective observation of a musical work’s structure and genesis and from biographical features of its composer’s life. At the same time, the physical aspects of reflection are important to the work’s exponents if the acoustics of the performance venue are to bring out the full effect of a composition. Notably, the mirror image or inversion as a fully developed form of reflection is a frequently employed musical technique at all periods. The space of time in which this recording was made was shaped vy the continuing Covid pandemic and the early stages of the Ukraine war and demanded self-reflecitve qualities of its performers in their identity as interpretative artists. The two artists accordingly saw the title of the recording, “Reflections”, as a guiding thread governing the players of the works, the works themselves and the works’ composers.
