This album invites you on a transformative journey through the music of Franz Liszt and Johannes Brahms, exploring art as a form of benediction — a healing force that illuminates human struggle and elevates the soul.

Uniting Liszt’s dazzling Transcendental Études, the poetic Sonetto 104 del Petrarca, and the deeply spiritual Bénédiction de Dieu dans la solitude with Brahms’ intimate Variations on a Theme by Schumann, Op. 9, the program reveals a profound emotional spectrum: from despair to serenity, from turbulence to transcendence.

Through contrasts in virtuosity, lyricism, and introspection, Benediction reflects on the power of music to redeem, inspire, and comfort — a sonic journey from shadow into light.
