Visions

Nino Gvetadze: Many years ago, when I studied at the Tbilisi Conservatory in Georgia, I had a privilege to be a student of a prominent Georgian composer, pianist and pedagogue, Nodar Gabunia. He was a very special, I would say exceptionally gifted person in many different ways. Every year he would present his students in a special concert, that always had a very interesting and intriguing theme. On one of these evenings, this time under the name " Debussy and his contemporaries", he entrusted me to play Lotus Land by Cyril Scott, the piece that took me under its spell from the very first bars.

This album contains a collection of pieces, that will give the listener a glimpse to the atmospheric, rich, beautiful, tender and meditative world of piano music of Cyril Scott. Cyrill Scott was a key figure before World War I in helping Britain to break away from musical conservatism and the prevailing Germanic influences. The album starts with a berceuse and leads us through a night filled with colorful Visions, a night followed by the Morning Song and the wise and dreamy epilogue Over the Prairie. There is so much more to discover about this enigmatic composer: an ocean of works that he left behind. I hope this CD will awake the interest and will trigger the listeners and musicians to look for more.
