Martin Draušnik: Il piccolo catalogo dei sospiri
CD
About the release
With true joy and enthusiasm, he embarked on the adventure of preparing his debut album, whose title is Il piccolo catalogo dei sospiri, inspired by Berislav Šipuš’s composition. A courageous and commendable artistic undertaking, this album presents the violinist in themost exposed of settings: alone with his instrument, his skill, inventiveness, and curiosity. Martin Draušnik has plenty of all of this in him, as evidenced by this first edition, whichbrings the musician’s thoughtful cross-selection of Croatian musical creativity dedicated to solo violin, with works by Milko Kelemen, Marko Ruždjak, Miroslav Miletić, Berislav Šipuš andMiroslav Šlik, framed by the pieces by Pavle Dešpalj, as a valuable musical document and a pledge for the future.
