Episode 208: 18208 On DSCH

The new album “On DSCH” by Igor Levit is a 3CD discographic tour de force by “one of the essential artists of our time” (The New York Times). That the self-styled “maximalist” enjoys pushing himself to his limits – intellectually and physically – is well known, but the present project – two key cycles of musical modernism - puts all others in the shade.

Shostakovich: 24 Preludes and Fugues, Op. 87

Stevenson: Passacaglia on DSCH
