Jaan Rääts . 24 Marginalia Op. 68 for two pianos
Jaan Rääts . Sonata Op. 82 for two pianos

About this project

Boundaries is a musical project dedicated to Estonian classical contemporary piano music. The 24 Marginalia for two pianos, op. 68, reflect to some extent the wealth of musical impressions surrounding us today. In an expressive manner unique to Rääts, the composer has set his marginal observations in a stylistic kaleidoscope ranging from baroque to rock.

Sonata op. 82 for two pianos is, in contrast, a piece of great breadth with clear neo-classical roots. The piece embodies all of the characteristics unique to Rääts music: high-keyed rhythm, fast pacing, obsessive and persistent repetition, alternating captivating lines and harmonies with moments of harsh and improvised dissonance.
