Скачать или смотреть Helena Basilova - Elena Firsova/ A Fearful Fairytale, op.171 (live)

Helena Basilova performs from A Fearful Fairytale, op.171, composed by Elena Firsova. This piece is on Basilova's 2019 album A Fearful Fairy Tale.

Netherlands based, Russian born pianist Helena Basilova brings with her new album A fearful Fairy Tale a story that was not just personal for her but representative of her. And Helena’s personal story is one of multitudes. Of departures and forgetting, discovery and loss, of glimmers of understanding, and feelings of coherence in oceans of confusing false certainties. This collection of music is meant as a story in itself, each piece included for the power it has to forge a connection that needed the story to be forged. And so it was with the piece that inspired the album. This album - of stories and a story in itself - is Helena’s tribute, to fairy tales and her homeland.
