Macedonian composer and violinist Mihailo Trandafilovski is a performer-composer in the mold of Telemann, BartÃ³k, Joachim and Liszt. Like them, it is quite impossible to separate his compositional and instrumental imaginations, and he exhibits a swirling yet sold inter-dependence between the energies of each. His contribution to the violin is extraordinary; his violin-piano duos (sonatas in all but name), concerti, violin duos, chamber works and pedagogical works are gifts for audiences and players alike. Previous recordings of his works have attracted glowing reviews around the world. The mix of chamber and duo works here also, according to the composer, relate to his whole life journey and relationship with the violin. Top performers on the album include the Kreutzer Quartet, in which SkÃ¦rved and the composer are the violinists. All works here are receiving their first recording.
