Info zu Unfolding Debussy

Mit "Unfolding Debussy" hat Marina Baranova mehr geschaffen als eine bloße Hommage an einen der größten Komponisten des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts. Sie hat seinem Werk neue Bedeutung beigemessen, verborgene Seiten und tiefere Zusammenhänge enthüllt und die Zerbrechlichkeit des Menschen hinter dem Mythos erkennbar gemacht.

"Die Aufnahme ist für Menschen, die aufgeschlossen sind und bereits ihre Liebe zu klassischer Musik entdeckt haben, aber auch für solche, die nichts darüber wissen", sagt Baranova. "Ich würde mich freuen, wenn sie sich beim Hören fragen: Wie mag wohl das Original klingen?" Genau einhundert Jahre nach dem Tod des Komponisten möchte "Unfolding Debussy" eine neue Generation von Musikliebhabern begeistern und dafür sorgen, dass seine sinnliche Kraft nicht in Vergessenheit gerät. Auch nach so langer Zeit kann Debussys Genie noch immer ein Feuerwerk der Farben entfachen.

"Im Fall von Unfolding Debussy ist es jedoch ein Glück, dass die Pianistin Marina Baranova die Jubiläums-Gelegenheit ergriff. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Klavierwerke, die Baranova nicht nur auf dem klassischen Bösendorfer realisiert, sondern auch mit einem elektrischen Fender Rhodes Klavier und einem zart klingenden Una-Corda-Piano. Hinzu kommen Geräusche durch Saitenmanipulationen und sogar von der Solistin gesungene Text. In La neige danse aus Children's Corner werden die mit Klang gemalten Schneeflocken mit einem Gedicht von Shane August zum Spiegel der sterbenden Liebe eines Paares." (Oliver Buslau, Rondo)

Marina Baranova, Stimme, Klavier

Marina Baranova
Born into a musical family in Ukraine, Marina Baranova began playing the piano when she was five years old. Just two years later, she was accepted into a music school for talented children in her home town of Kharkov. At age 11, Marina won first prize at the International Competition for Young Pianists in Ukraine, which preceded her first international concert tour in Finland.

In the late 90’s she moved to Germany to begin studying with Professor Vladimir Krainev at the University for Music, Theatre and Media in Hannover. Throughout her studies in Hannover, she won at least one internationally renowned competition every year. Marina still resides in Hannover, her base with which she returns from international tours across famous concert halls in Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Spain, Benelux, Poland, Israel, Latin America and Thailand.

Marina’s passionate musical interpretation and performances have won over the public and press alike at a wide range of festivals. Festivals such as the International Piano Festival Ferruccio Busoni and the Merano Classic Festival in South Tyrol, Italy, the Viennese Music Week, the Beethoven and Schumann festivals in Bonn, the Granada Piano festival, Schumann Fest Week, Leipzig, and the Beethoven Night in Heidelberg have all seen Marina enhance her international reputation. A sought-after soloist, Marina has performed with the German Radio Philharmonic, the Würtembergischen Philharmonic conducted by Ola Rudner, the Leipzig Gewandhaus Quartet, the Slaska Philharmonic Orchestra, the Bromberg Radio Orchestra conducted by Tadeusz Strugala, the Romanian Bacau Philharmonic Orchestra and the Jerusalem Strings in Yad Vashem, Israel. Her performances have been broadcast on German national TV and Radio including her debut concerto performance in Berlin and her concert performance in the Trierer Kurfürstlichen Palace.

Her debut CD „Marina Baranova plays Schumann“, released by Pianissimo Music in 2012, was given rave reviews by the press. Jaochim Kaiser described her as a skilled and captivating interpreter of Schumann’s music.

Alongside her career as a classical pianist, Marina’s interests also lie in cross-over projects in Jazz, New Music and World Music. For example, She has been involved in numerous world premiere performances of composer Damian Marhulets’ electro-acoustic compositions, including „STELLAR - Wandering Stars Suite“, on which she collaborated with award winning guitarist Frank Bungarten, and „Triangulation“, which was performed at the Beethoven Fest in Bonn. In the world music arena, Marina performed with klezmer legend and clarinettist Giora Feidman at the Vienna Konzerthaus with a program of Jewish songs and songs by Schubert. Shortly following this project, Marina was asked to perform as a guest soloist with Feidman in a CD production, where they recorded numerous compositions together.

Marina Baranova is herself also a talented composer. Her latest CD „Firebird“, where she collaborates with renowned percussionist Murat Coşkun, is completely made up of her own compositions. „Firebird“ was released in 2013 under the Pianissimo Music label and was distributed by Edel Music. Marina and Murat are also touring this program together as a duo.
