product description
Toivo Kuula - German Premiere Recording!
Rudi Stephan, Erwin Schulhoff
Three Talents - One Fate
Kuula, Schulhoff, Stephan - three great talents whose shared fate, their premature deaths, prevented their work from finding its rightful place in the music world. The life paths of the three composers were tragically cut short: Stephan fell in Galicia during World War I, Schulhoff in a German internment camp during World War II, and Kuula was shot at a celebration marking Finland's liberation.
Lebenslinien contains the German premiere recording of the Sonata for Violin and Piano by Toivo Kuula. There is also a very personal connection to the Finnish composer: Nina Karmon, daughter of a Finnish cellist, identifies with Kuula's passionate romanticism and Finnish poetry in a very special way. It seems no coincidence that Nina Karmon's grandmother wrote the only biography of Kuula.
Nina Karmon:
As the daughter of a Finnish cellist and a concertmaster, she received early instruction and made her debut at the age of 11 with Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in D minor. She studied with, among others, Pinchas Zuckerman and Patinka Kpoec at the Manhattan School of Music in New York, where she completed her studies in 1998. Concert tours have taken her to major concert halls in Europe and the USA, as well as to Israel, Canada, and South America.
