About
“Carpathian Impressions” features a blend of classical and jazz piano music based on the Carpathian Valley’s thousand-year-old musical heritage. On the wings of familiar melodies by Liszt, Bartók, and Kodály plus improvisations inspired by the traditions of Central Europe, Hungarian classical pianists Éva Polgár and László Borbély and jazz pianist Gábor Varga take listeners on a sensational journey. The program introduces the diverse, heartbreaking, peaceful, and virtuosic nature of this ancient cultural treasure.
