​​Two new CDs were introduced in one go by Franziska Pietsch, her Trio Lirico and pianist Detlev Eisinger on October 13th in Berlin: Prokofiev's Violin Concertos (DSO Berlin, Cristian Macelaru) and the String Trios and the Piano Quartett in A minor by Max Reger. The program of the Album Release Concert in the Maison de France included excerpts from the chamber music producion and - as a "representative" for Prokofievs Violin Concertos - his Violin Sonata No. 2.

In the animated discussion with presenter Michael Struck-Schloen (WDR, rbb), the musicians talked about their approach to the music of Max Reger, the potential of the format string trio, and the early beginnings of their ensemble. Franziska Pietsch also granted insight into her biography and shared details of her carrier as a shooting star in the GDR, the influence of the reprisals by the regime after her  father's escape to the West and her special relationship with the music of Prokofiev.

The audience of ca. 70 people followed the brilliant music performances and interviews with unabated interest up to the very end, and rewarded the artists and the presenter with long-lasting applause.

The lists recommend new releases which merit special attention for the quality of interpretation and for their value to the repertoire. These lists provide a candid picture of new releases which, in the jury's opinion, are of outstanding importance when judged on purely artistic and audiophile grounds.

We are very happy about this distinguished award!

Statement of the Jury:
"Franziska Pietsch hat sich in den letzten Jahren als hoch expressiv gestaltende Kammermusikerin profiliert, aus ihren Aufnahmen spricht eine bemerkenswerte künstlerische Individualität. In den Violinkonzerten von Sergej Prokofjew stellt sie die virtuos-geigerischen Effekte und die hoch expressive Lyrik in lebendigen Kontrasten gegenüber. Sie arbeitet Charaktere mit Deutlichkeit heraus und öffnet damit das Ohr für die immense Vielgestaltigkeit der musikalischen Gedanken, die Prokofjew in diese konzertanten Meisterwerken hineingelegt hat. Der Ausdruckswille der Geigerin ist bezwingend, in jeder Phase absolut glaubhaft. Ein Glücksgriff auch der junge rumänische Dirigent Cristian Mācelaru, er bewegt das DSO Berlin zu farbkräftigem Spiel. So runden sich diese Prokofjew-Interpretationen zu einem großen, schlüssigen Ganzen. (Für die Jury: Norbert Hornig)"
