In spring of 2020, concert halls fell silent. During those weeks, when people had to stay at home and musicians faced all their performances being canceled, a group of Berlin-based artists of international acclaim, in co-operation with awarded film producer Jan Schmidt-Garre and Naxos Audiovisual, set up a series of chamber music concerts performed and filmed at Schinkel Pavillon in Berlin. Pianist Zlata Chochieva performs a selection of Mendelssohn's Lieder Ohne Worte and Chopin's Etudes, the Mephisto Waltz No. 2 composed by Liszt, Rachmaninoff's Canon in E minor, Prelude in F, Fragments and Oriental Sketch, and Medtner's Canzona Serenata op. 38.
