Elusive Affinity
Russian pianist Anna Gourari's third album for ECM draws together works by five contemporary or recent composers, placed between a pair of slow-movement transcriptions by Bach. The recent works are three suites, by Alfred Schnittke, Wolfgang Rihm and Rodion Shchedrin – the latter dedicated to Gourari – and miniatures by Giya Kancheli and Arvo Pärt.
