M.Mdivani-M. Weinberg Sonata N6 R minor - final part

WEB : http://www.marinamdivani.gol.ge
Mieczysław Weinberg (also Moisey Vainberg, Moisey Samuilovich Vaynberg; Russian Моисей Самуилович Вайнберг; Polish Mieczysław Wajnberg) (December 8, 1919 in Warsaw -- February 26, 1996 in Moscow) was an important Soviet composer of Polish-Jewish origin. He lived in the Soviet Union and Russia since 1939 and lost most of his family in the Holocaust.

He left a large body of work that included twenty-two symphonies and seventeen string quartets; according to one reviewer he ranked as, "the third great Soviet composer, along with Prokofiev and Shostakovich".

Wow; thanks for this video!

Wajnberg is my great uncle... I looking for his music already for years... Do you know where I can find the scores of his piano music?

Kind regards,

Aaron Wajnberg

Indeed, luckily more and more recordings appear, e.g. on label CPO the Quatuor Danel are currently recording all his string quartets - and check out the cello sonates as well.

Dear Aaron Wajnberg,

the PEER-Verlag in Hamburg sells some of the great music of your uncle. many scores are to be found in russian conservatory-libraries.

I love his music!!! Chandos is recording all his symphonies and many other labels are recording his music.

all best from switzerland, k.s

[ssprokofiev]

This sounds much more interesting than Shostakovich's piano music, even though it seems to share a kinship with it. Weinberg is a compoer who might well rank just below Prokofiev and Shostakovich.
