With works by Franz Schubert and Robert Schumann, this CD is dedicated entirely to themagic of musical romanticism. Two composers, two worlds of sound - united by emotional depth, imagination and a love of the piano. Lei Meng interprets Schumann's filigree Arabesque op. 18 and his passionate C major Fantasyop. 17, a musical confession full of inner drama. Schubert will perform the intimate Allegretto in C minor D 915 and the powerful, visionary Wanderer Fantasy D 760 - an orchestral masterpiecefor piano. Lei Meng, born in 1991 in Harbin (China), studied at the Mozarteum Salzburg and the CNSMD inParis, among others. She has won prizes at international competitions and has performed inEurope, China, Brazil and the USA. She has been Professor of Piano and Piano Didactics at theMozarteum Salzburg since 2024. Her artistic versatility is reflected in numerous solo andchamber music projects.
