Harpist Kyunghee Kim-Sutre Performs Rare Works by Sophia Corri Dussek

Kyunghee Kim-Sutre, harp
Sophia Dussek: Favorite Airs Arranged for the Harp

Sophia Corri could have fared better in the husband department, (she married the ne’er-do-well Bohemian composer Jan Ladislav Dussek), but she did manage to excel in producing arrangements for her chosen instrument, the harp. These compositions enjoyed great success in her lifetime, particularly her arrangements of favorite airs, popular operas and Scottish, Welsh, Irish or even French songs.

Harpist Kyunghee Kim-Sutre offers us a selection of Favourite Airs arranged by Sophia Corri Dussek in this week’s featured recording, most of which have not yet been recorded.

5 of Diapason for the CD The Consoling Harp

…Soufflons un peu grace a « La Harpe consolatrice » de Kyunghee Kim-Sutre. Les Six pièces brèves (1917) d’Henriette Renié pourraient illustrer un conte de Perrault, tandis que Jardin mouillé (1913) de Jacques de La Presle, luisant sous le soleil, et les six aquarelles fauréennes du jeune Jacques Ibert (1917), joyau de I’album, délivrent une leçon d’optimisme : après la pluie, le beau temps.

“…Défendues par des musiciens aussi excellents que passionnés, ces quatre œuvres méritaient assurément d’être ainsi remises en valeur.”

Radio Klara Top 10

January 23, 2016 by Admin

Top 10 for the CD Woelfl on Radio Klara (Belgium) this week!

Klara’s verdict

The salon music of Joseph Woelfl from the early years of the 19th century deserves your full attention. It is literally situated between the late Mozart and the early Beethoven. The much too soon died Woelfl – he was just under 40.

… The three sonatas on this album saw the light in Paris. They sound endearing as salon music should be, but you still are having more backbone, content and playful expressiveness than the average chamber music from that era. It is a pleasure to play this unpretentious harp-violin-piano music in foreground or background in the living room to hear whirling. Thanks to three experienced musicians: the Belgian pianist Steven Vanhauwaert, Korean harpist Kyunghee Kim Sutre and French violinist Guillaume Sutre.
