Piano: Leon Kirchner
Remembering Leon Kirchner1919-2009:
"His music can be harrowing to listen to," Robert Lwevin said in a recent phone interview. "It shatters and transforms us. Leon gave us self-portraits without any mercy to himself. He showed the anguish within and did not flinch from it. The number of composers who are able or willing to do that is not large."
