Gidon Kremer plays Mieczysław Weinberg's "24 Preludes" - TRAILER

In his first release on Accentus Music, Gidon Kremer presents his ingenious arrangement of the Weinberg Preludes in a world premiere recording!
The 24 Preludes for Cello solo by Mieczysław Weinberg have a particular history. He composed them in the late sixties for Mstislav Rostropovich who never played them. Their musical language is aphoristic, often brutal, provocative and marked by an inner conflict. The Preludes reveal many different and very strong gestures. Their performance may have been problematic in Soviet times.
Gidon Kremer has adapted the Preludes for solo violin and this is the world premiere recording of his adaptation as well as the first Accentus Music release with Gidon Kremer. In his concert program "Preludes to a Lost Time", Kremer plays them to projections of pictures by the famous Lithuanian photographer Antanas Sutkus. One of these pictures is shown on the cover of the CD. Gidon Kremer's earlier approaches to the music of the long neglected, brilliant composer Weinberg, whom many regard as the musical heir of Dmitri Shostakovich from today's perspective, were praised by music critics all over the world. Kremer, with his very own tone, seems to be the ideal interpreter for this exciting repertoire.
In May, the portrait “Gidon Kremer - Finding Your Own Voice” by Paul Smaczny will be released on DVD. The release will feature an audiovisual recording of Gidon Kremer’s concert program “Preludes to a Lost Time” from the Gogol Center Moscow

The harmony between music and photography is perfect! In this music, the medium of photography seems to be more intense than video.
