SWR Kultur New Talent is a promotion and support programme of the broadcasting corporation SWR aiming to help exceptional young talents launch their career through concerts, studio productions and media presence over a period of three years. The cellist Lionel Martin has been the 'New Talent' since 2021. In 2017 Anne-Sophie Mutter included him in her foundation of young, outstanding musicians. Since then they have performed together on numerous occasions and he toured with her and her scholarship holders throughout Europe, North and South America - where he performed not only in famous concert halls, but also for social projects in smaller locations.Following his CD debut in 2023 with repertoire by the British composer Tavener, Lionel Martin devotes the present album to Russian repertoire from the 19th and 20th centuries. All three composers on this album come from the same region, and all three struggled with their fate. Kabalevsky and Shostakovich were neighbors, they even lived in the same house for a while. Both dealt differently with the political regime - and the regime with them. Shostakovich was a thorn in the side of the Soviet power apparatus, and his music repeatedly and clearly criticizes those in power. Kabalevsky came to terms with the regime and even worked for it at times. Tchaikovsky also suffered from the conventions of his time and ultimately broke under the strain.
