Lencses, Lajos
Soliloque
The album features oboe works by some of the most outstanding Hungarian composers of our century, showcasing the fascinating diversity of both the instrument and Hungarian composition, from the art of György Kurtág, through the work of Ferenc Farkas, László Sáry and Paul Arma to the rich chamber music of Miklós Rózsa, famous for his film scores. Lajos Lencsés gives proof not only of his commitment to Hungarian music, but also of the inextinguishable curiosity that has driven him to perform and record many unknown, even unpublished pieces over the decades. Soliloque is thus a collection of true rarities, focusing on the hidden beauties of Hungarian contemporary music with the humanity and profundity so characteristic of the oboist.
