Description
For Anna-Maria, the fragrance of every season!
Inspired by Bach’s Sixth Suite for solo cello, The White Sarabande adds a subtle Latin American touch to the beautiful baroque dance.
With its clear synaesthetic connotation in the title, the composition introduces the listener to a diverse emotional spectrum in which fluid boundaries between the sacred and the profane, joy and nostalgia, evoke a longing for life - a kind of „hopeful melancholy”.
The work is intended as a tribute - an exaltation - to femininity with its delicate lines but also with its intrinsic strength and inspirational power, which it can generate in the world. In Spanish the word ‘vida’ (life) is a feminine noun!
Recorded during the pandemic, this composition is now included in Maak & Albertz’s new album ‚In the Secret of the World’, which brings together a musical kaleidoscope of piano works reflecting a multifaceted and moving expression of new classical music. Alongside the influences of Bach, Beethoven and other musical creators, Ibero-American culture, pop and electronic music also find their place in this recording. Thus, the artistic-creative discourse is transformed into a cosmopolitan vision.
Premiered by pianist Anna-Maria Maak on January 24th, 2019 | art Kapella Schkeuditz.
Recorded on Anna-Maria Maak’s concept album ‘In the Secret of the World’
