The recording includes art songs, duets, works for piano, piano and violin as well as spoken texts, all connected to one of France’s most famous authors of the 19th century, George Sand. Featured on the CD alongside Sonya Yoncheva are pianist Olga Zado, mezzo-soprano Marina Viotti and violinist Adam Taubitz. Sonya Yoncheva can be heard not only singing, but also reciting letters from and to George Sand as well as a poem by the renowned author.“George Sand has always fascinated me”, says Sonya Yoncheva. “She was such a multi-layered woman, who dared to be herself throughout her life. Her unconditional love for the arts was one of the first sparks that inspired me to realize this project. I was intrigued by her artistic world: her salon, her friends, and how she lived surrounded by music and art. Her many affairs, to name a few: Alfred de Musset, Frédéric Chopin, and even rumors of a fling with Franz Liszt. She had all these men around her and was incredibly close to everything they were creating. For this project, I imagined Sand’s house, kitchen, and salon, with all these artists, lovers, and friends. And that is how this project was born. I wanted to bring this woman to life through my voice, through these works and melodies, also using her actual texts and thoughts, which show her vibrant nature.”

Recorded in March 2024 at the Salle de Musique in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the album features music by Frédéric Chopin, Léo Delibes, Ruggero Leoncavallo, Franz Liszt Jacques Offenbach, Francesco Paolo Tosti and Pauline Viardot. It will be available worldwide physically and on all common streaming platforms on the 24th of January, 2025.
