Swedish pianist Peter Jablonski and early music ensemble I Zefirelli are each releasing a new CD today: Peter Jablonski has recorded “Piano Works” by Scottish composer Ronald Stevenson (1928-2015) for the Ondine label. This collection includes four premiere recordings that reflect Jablonski’s deep understanding of these demanding works by Stevenson.
The early music ensemble I Zefirelli has release “Telemann in der Taverne” (“Telemann in the tavern”) which contains works by Georg Philipp Telemann that date from the composer’s Hamburg period. In addition, songs and pieces can be heard as they might have been played and sung in the taverns of Hamburg in Telemann’s time. This recording has been released on the Arcantus label.

Maria Narodytska presents her debut album “War Poems” today. For the SOMM Recordings label, the Ukrainian pianist has recorded solo works for piano that were written in times of war or revolution. The CD features compositions by Szymanowski, Shostakovich, Chopin and Artem Liakhovich (*1982), as well as a solo work by Maria Narodytska herself.
As a prizewinner of the Takamatsu, Santa Cecilia, Mauro Paulo Monopoli and WorldVision competitions, the Ukrainian pianist has won more than 30 first prizes in total. In 2023, Maria Narodytska won first prize at the Bradshaw & Buono Piano Competition in New York.
