This new recording presents the transcription for piano duet that Felix Mendelssohn made of his immensely popular music for Shakespeare’s Ein Sommernachtstraum ( a Midsummer Night’s Dream). Mendelssohn, one of the greatest piano virtuosos of his time, perfectly managed to maintain the fairytale atmosphere of the orchestral score in this beautifully written piano arrangement: the famous Scherzo shines with pianistic glitter and the Wedding March receives the appropriate festiveness and pomp.

Brilliantly played by the Italian DuoKeira, prize winners of the 2010 IBLA Grand Prize World Music Competition and one of the recipients of the Global Music Awards.
