About

Experience a captivating juxtaposition of four distinct and mesmerizing compositions spanning a mere decade on the GENUIN CD recorded by violinist Friederike Starkloff and pianist Endri Nini. The duo has compiled works from 1913 to 1923 by Erwin Schulhoff, Claude Debussy, George Antheil, and Leoš Janácek — echoes of an era characterized by tumultuous innovation and pioneering spirit where artists across all genres laid the foundations for modernity. Starkloff, who embarked on her career as the youngest first concertmaster of a German radio orchestra, and Nini, esteemed internationally as a chamber musician, breathe life into these extraordinary, kaleidoscopic compositions with unparalleled intensity and technical mastery.

Critic reviews

  • “The performers offer these four works as diverse in expression as they are. While Debussy’s ideas are characterized by impressions of nature, Antheil’s sonata with its short, witty, even irritating passages becomes a lively antithesis.”

    Pizzicato, Supersonic, May 2024

  • “A perfect example of how to craft a fascinating and rewarding programme that creates unexpected linkages and parallels from essentially familiar music.”

    MusicWeb International, Nominee for recording of the year, December 2024
