For this CD, pianist Colleen Athparia has chosen works with marked stylistic differences, yet which have universal appeal and speak across cultural and geographic barriers. This is challenging music that communicates and resonates with audiences, even those less familiar with new music.
This recording marks the first edition of the Prairie Sounds imprint of the Centrediscs label, an imprint which is dedicated to releasing recording projects that are initiated and funded within the Prairie region of Canada.
“Athparia approaches all the works with an enlightened sense of sophistication.”
– Tiina Kiik, Wholenote
“…beautifully performed and produced album of contemporary piano music. Should you be even casually interested in the repertoire, you will be richly rewarded listening to these performances.”
– Bob Oxley, Audio Ideas Guide
