Composer: George Enescu
Artist: Saskia Giorgini (piano)

Enescu was the most important composer of his native Romania, and a towering figure in 20th century European musical life. He studied in Vienna and Paris, where Massenet and Fauré were his teachers. He was a brilliant violinist (as well as pianist and conductor) and counted famous violinists among his pupils: Ivry Gitlis, Yehudi Menuhin, Arthur Grumiaux, Christian Ferras. His music is personal, rooted in the rich folklore of Romania, imbued with the warmth and humanity of his generous soul.

Presented here are his 3rd Piano Sonata and the Suite Op. 18, played with deep understanding and love by Italian pianist Saskia Giorgini. A student of the famous Imola School in Italy she won the first prize at the prestigious Mozart Competition in Salzburg in 2016. She is a soloist, plays with orchestra and is an avid chamber music player, her partners include Janine Jansen, Ian Bostridge, Martin Fröst and Gilles Apap.

“For me, it is a bit like witnessing one’s thoughts freely flowing, developing, disappearing and reappearing as something else. The result is something rather complex but completely honest and deeply human, at the same time sounding natural and almost improvisational”, as pianist Saskia Giorgini describes her feelings about the music of Enescu.
