{"product_id":"igor-levit-on-dsch-cd","title":"Igor Levit - On DSCH (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails: \u003c\/strong\u003eThree CD set. On DSCH is a discographic tour de force by \"one of the essential artists of our time\" (The New York Times). That the self-styled \"maximalist\" enjoys pushing himself to his limits - intellectually and physically - is well known, but the present project - two key cycles of musical modernism - puts all others in the shade. Completed in 1951, Dmitri Shostakovich's 24 Preludes and Fugues - a summary of all the major and minor tonalities - lasts some two and a half hours in total, while Ronald Stevenson's Passacaglia on DSCH, which he completed in 1963, is an unbroken set of variations lasting nearly an hour and a half. The letters DSCH spell out Shostakovich's musical monogram using their German note names: D-Es-C-H = D-E?-C-B. The album's artwork is specially created by the internationally renowned graphic artist and book designer Christoph Niemann, who regularly illustrates for The New Yorker and The New York Times. His illustration for On DSCH offers a playfully abstract counterpart to this musical experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHostakovich Preludes ; Fugues for Piano (24) Op. 87\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Igor Levit (Piano)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 1 in C Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 1 in C Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 2 in a Minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 2 in a Minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 3 in G Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 3 in G Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 4 in E minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 4 in E minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 5 in D Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 5 in D Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 6 in B minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 6 in B minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 7 in a Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 7 in a Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 8 in F-Sharp minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 8 in F-Sharp minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 9 in E Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 9 in E Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 10 in C-Sharp minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 10 in C-Sharp minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 11 in B Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 11 in B Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 12 in G-Sharp minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 12 in G-Sharp minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 13 in F-Sharp Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 13 in F-Sharp Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 14 in E-Flat minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 14 in E-Flat minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 15 in D-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 15 in D-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 16 in B-Flat minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 16 in B-Flat minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 17 in A-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 17 in A-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 18 in F minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 18 in F minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 19 in E-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 19 in E-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 20 in C minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 20 in C minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 21 in B-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 21 in B-Flat Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 22 in G minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 22 in G minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 23 in F Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 23 in F Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Prelude No. 24 in D minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fugue No. 24 in D minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pars Prima Sonata Allegro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pars Prima Waltz in Rondo-Form\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pars Prima Episode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pars Prima Suite.
