George Crumb started to write music after Second World War, and he is still working as a composer nowadays. He wrote "A Little Suite for Christmas" for piano in 1980. The main idea of this composition is a dialogue between sound and silence, which is the fully legitimate member of George Crumb's music. The long pauses between intensive moments of piano blasting can prepare the listener very well to conceive all musical ideas, and the whole impression is really stunning. This release is an exclusive live recording of George Crumb's "A Little Suite for Christmas", performed by Pavel Dombrovski, young and talented pianist from Moscow. Though Pavel is only 24 years old, he was already a laureate of many international awards, and performed live in England, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Italy, France, Poland and all over the world. This act was recorded at 16th December, during the public performance at Moscow Institute of Journalism and Literature.
