Description

The album “The Secret Garden” by Jakub Metelka (b. 1986) contains fifteen recital pieces in simple song form, thus tying in with his successful, technically less demanding piano cycle “Little Virtuoso” (BA11569). The individual compositions in the collection are characterized by Metelka’s unmistakable, tonally anchored melodic style, enriched with many unusual harmonies and colours, which here underlines the slightly melancholic and mysterious character of these nocturnal pieces. The playful illustrations by Andrea Tachezy reflect these moods in an imaginative and charming way.

Although it is not really a predetermined cycle, the fifteen atmospheric character pieces, with their programmatic titles and their arrangement tell a kind of fairy tale that culminates in the magical final composition “The Secret Garden”.

Press reviews

“Metelka is masterful in his ability to infuse interesting and captivating ideas into short, one- or two-page pieces, an ideal length for busy students. The Bärenreiter score is beautifully edited with clear notational details that effectively communicate the composers’ intentions.”

(Ivan Hurd, American Music Teacher June/July 2024)

“Despite the novelty of these pieces, they all sit well under the fingers, and are a joy to play. It is clear that Metelka’s pianistic sensibilities are every bit as developed as his fertile creative personality. In this collection, perhaps even more than before, Metelka also proves to be an enjoyable storyteller. The quirky piece titles undoubtedly set the scene, but it is in the music itself that he weaves his ultimate magic. … The Secret Garden is such a superb addition to his published output that his reputation can only grow exponentially at this point. Superb.”

(Andrew Eales, pianodao.com 6.3.2024)
