Behzod Abduraimov joins Alpha for several recordings, starting with this 'kaleidoscope of miniatures' - miniatures that are in fact fairly gigantic, and showcase the Uzbek pianist's extreme virtuosity and sensitivity. 'Each movement is in itself a miniature, and taken together they form a kaleidoscope of human emotions and images of all kinds,' says Behzod Abduraimov. In his view, the pieces in Debussy's Children's Corner are not intended for young piano students, but 'for adults, so that they can immerse themselves in the world of children with a little nostalgia and a lot of humor.' When it comes to Chopin, 'each prelude has a different musical essence, creates it's own atmosphere. Together they form an arc spanning the distance from the first prelude to the last. So I tried to consider them as a whole.' Finally, Mussorgsky evokes in ten highly expressive movements the paintings at an exhibition held in posthumous tribute to his friend Viktor Hartmann. A 'Promenade' heard several times suggests Mussorgsky himself strolling through the exhibition. For Behzod Abduraimov, the "Promenades" play a key role in this cycle: they create the atmosphere before each painting.
