About
Indeed, the pieces chosen by Benjamin Baker and Daniel Lebhardt for their second Delphian recording also speak from a decade of musical endings. Claude Debussy and Lili Boulanger both died in 1918, two extraordinary careers cut short early; Baker and Lebhardt’s programme includes some of their last works. Edward Elgar lived on for another fifteen years, but wrote little more to match the four major compositions which emerged from his pen in 1918 and 1919.
Leoš Janáček, by contrast, was about to enter an astonishing Indian summer of creativity; his Violin Sonata stands on the cusp, inspired by Janácek’s hopes that the war might lead to independence for his beloved Czech lands.
“New Zealand-born violinist Benjamin Baker and Hungarian pianist Daniel Lebhardt are superb partners with a rare passion and energy...” – Apple Music on “1942 Prokofiev – Copland – Poulenc” (DCD34247)
