With this debut recording, Armenian-American violist Kim Kashkashian introduces a new duo with Russian composer-pianist Lera Auerbach. Their first collaboration showcases Auerbach’s original viola and piano transcription of Shostakovich’s often playful 24 Preludes, alongside Auerbach’s own, darker sonata for viola and piano, Arcanum, composed specifically for Kashkashian.
"Arcanum means ‘mysterious knowledge’ and I was fascinated by the inner voice within each of us, some may call it perhaps intuition, some may call it guided meditation, but there is some knowledge that we have, which we may not necessarily verbalize or rationalize, but that allows us to see the truth, to be guided, to seek answers ... there is a quality of life-or-death intensity to (Kashkashian's) performing, which is rare and wonderful."
- Lera Auerbach
