The love for the Latvian landscape is audible in the piano works of Latvia’s greatest living composer, Peteris Vasks especially in his Seasons, the composer’s most frequently performed piano work. For this album pianist Reinis Zarinš has brought two other piano works alongside The Seasons as first recordings: Vasks’ early piano work Cycle from the 1970s, and a new piano work, Cuckoo’s Voice. (Ondine)
