Description :

Young composers often make their living with incidental music. Such was the case of Leonid Desyatnikov (*1955) who wrote in his early years a lot of music for puppet shows and dramatic performances. Later the author collected some pieces together forming the suite "Reminiscences of the Theatre”, the title being of course a reminiscence of Robert Schumann's famous "Album für die Jugend” (No 25). Desyatnikov's cycle - depicting a small entertaining theatrical revue - is addressed to young pianists.
