Several albums have sought to capture the spirit of a music-historical juncture through the device of recording works from a single year, but this one by pianist Yaara Tal is exceptionally effective. Tal offers a sequence of 29 short pieces; they go by quickly, and they carry the flavor of a recital that might have occurred at the time, perhaps giving a sampling of the musical ideas that were in the air. There are a few well-known works, but Tal leans heavily toward pieces related to those but not necessarily known in themselves. Thus, there is Schoenberg's Fünf Klavierstücke, Op. 23, but also a string of pieces by the much less familiar Josef Matthias Hauer, who developed his own 12-tone system independently of Schoenberg. Pieces by the giants of the day, Leoš Janáček and Frederick Delius mix with up-and-comers like Federico Mompou, and insights into the relevance they had in their own day are abundant. There are spiritual pieces, like the mysteriously gorgeous Nirvana of Ernest Bloch, and futurism in the form of Die Maschine, Op. 1, of Fritz Heinrich Klein. The program would seem likely to fall apart, but Tal moves nimbly from style to style, capturing the ferment of the era vividly. The album would make an ideal basis for a university course centered on the era, and it offers plenty of food for thought to general listeners.
