Full album The Spectral Waltzers 1.-3. (2024) at www.frantisekchaloupka.bandcamp.com
From the cultivated sound of a concert grand piano to the historic Janáček piano to the so-called “broken piano” - each of the three Spectral Waltzers for piano, organ or any other keyboard instruments (2022) were recorded in three different spaces in Brno, Czech Republic - Janáček Academy of Music & Performing Arts, Leoš Janáček Memorial and Káznice, the infamous penitentiary. The nine recordings constitute a dramaturgic arc of an approximately hour-long album performed by Miroslav Beinhauer.
Along with the music album, video recordings of the compositions were also published online. Special thanks to Janá...
