Oriana Masternak & Justyna Danczowska - Parallels

Parallelisms, parallels � these are the words that define the newest album by violinist Oriana Masternak and pianist Justyna Danczowska.

The artists juxta pose Polish music with European music created in similar times: Jozef Elsner's Sonata in F Major and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Sonata in G Major KV 301 complement each other in Classical noble simplicity and grace; Karol Szymanowski's Dance from the Ballet Harnasie completes the subtle and pre-impressionistic Sonate posthume by Maurice Ravel with its sprightly energy, while in Cinq pieces by Aleksander Tansman, the artists prove that his musical language binds many parallel European trends.
