Amir Xhakoviq- The Balkan Piano, Vol. 1 (CD) Malk De Koijn and even a special write-upThe composing traditions of the nine Balkan countries are as good as unknown in the rest of the world. In this revelatory piano recital, the Albanian pianist Amir Xhakoviq presents a glittering array of keyboard jewels from his own country and it's neighbours, ranging from wild and energetic toccatas to timeless evocations of bells and other ancient traditions, with a surprisingly wide range of references, from folk music to Scarlatti and jazz.
