Three Poems of Osip Mandelstam, Op. 23

(Rus/Eng) Elena Firosva's music – of the utmost spareness – provides the ideal setting for these introspective texts, with the pianist supporting the voice so delicately as to vanish at times. Firsova was born in Leningrad in 1950 to a family of physicists. After studies at the Moscow Conservatory she worked with Edison Denisov, the well-known Soviet composer also trained as a mathematician.
