Cello and Piano Recital: Fredens, Janne / Rastogi, Soren - BOSMANS, H. / PEJAČEVIĆ, D. / BOULANGER, L. / BOULANGER, N. (Upheaval)
Upheaval is an exceptional project featuring four compositions for cello and piano written by female composers from the first part of the 20th century, challenging the cultural norms of the time. The works, composed from 1911–1919, include Henriëtta Bosmans’ Sonata for Cello and Piano (1919), Dora Pejačević’s Sonata for Cello and Piano (1913), Nadia Boulanger’s Trois pièces (1914), and Lili Boulanger’s Nocturne (1911). The husband-and-wife duo of Janne Fredens (cello) and Søren Rastogi (piano) approach the programme with profound commitment and mission, recognising that their performances of such unfamiliar repertoire may set a benchmark for future artists. They chose the Bechstein Grand Piano to complement the beautiful tone of Janne’s cello and evoke the piano sound of the period. This recording is highly recommended for fans of unfamiliar chamber music, advocates for women composers, and those who love to hear glorious music played by great musicians with passion and commitment.
