The works recorded on this album carry within them a spirit of rebellion. BARTÓK reconnects with the essence of Hungarian folk music, its raw, vital quality, the wildness of its rhythms. SZYMANOWSKI, with the dances of southern Poland’s mountain folk, their primal incantations of a beauty at once severe and ecstatic. As for JANÁČEK, he forges a direct connection with the essense of the Slavic soul at its most generous. No room here for stylisation or decorum; these works draw upon the very roots of music.
