Artist:  Scarlett Brebion Kelemen Label:  Ludiq Records

Description: Confluence of cultures: Scarlett Brebion Kelemen is a French pianist who has been living in Costa Rica for many years. She has recorded the first-ever compact disc entirely dedicated to piano music by Costa Rican composers. Confluence of composers from yesterday and today: the works were selected from different periods of the XX century, in order to give an idea of the variety and richness of styles that coexist in Costa Rica. From the old-Vienna nostalgia of Julio Fonseca's "Vals Leda" to the rhythmic excitement and driving modernism of Benjamin Gutierrez' "Preludio y Danza de la pena negra," concert music in Costa Rica during the 20th Century has changed and developed at an amazing pace in an incredibly short period of time. Confluence of two continents, confluence of musical worlds: Confluencia.
