From the late Romanticism of the music from Pearl Harbour to the delicacy and refinement of The Girl with the Pearl Earring, Anna Scheps brings the full resources of the piano to bear on some of the most beautiful and rousing film scores of the last half century. Her arrangements for piano exude eloquent virtuosity and Lisztian rhapsodic lyricism as well as razor-sharp dynamism in the case of Mission: Impossible. She also includes the evocative sound world of Isaac Albéniz and the sparkling elegance of Scarlatti sonatas to create an album of ambitious bravura and poetry.

With this programme, Anna Scheps takes us on a very intensive journey through fantastic worlds of
fiction. We can sense how everything is connected in film music. We hear Romantic, Classical, and
even Baroque sounds. The arrangements were written specifically for the pianist - as demanding as possible, dense, fast moving and highly artistic.
