Igor Levit – Resistance [CD]

Description

With Resistance, Igor Levit presents a compelling program exploring
freedom, power, and political resistance. The album brings together
Beethoven's groundbreaking Symphony No. 3 "Eroica" in Franz Liszt's
virtuosic piano transcription and Arnold Schoenberg's politically
charged masterpiece Ode to Napoleon. Originally dedicated to Napoleon
Bonaparte, Beethoven's symphony became the "Eroica" after Napoleon
crowned himself Emperor. For Igor Levit, the work continues to embody
human resilience, inner strength, and artistic independence. Liszt's
extraordinary transcription translates the symphony's orchestral power
to the piano and remains a landmark achievement in the art of
transcription. Levit places Schoenberg's Ode to Napoleon alongside it.
Written in exile in 1942 and based on a text by Lord Byron, the work
stands as a powerful musical indictment of tyranny and oppression.
Together with the Kammerakademie Potsdam under Antonello Manacorda and
acclaimed actress Dörte Lyssewski as narrator, Levit delivers a
performance of striking intensity and contemporary relevance.
