Music is the wealth of all mankind. We are all rich in treasures - musical masterpieces obtained for us by outstanding masters - composers. However having all the incredible variety of the brightest diamonds, emeralds and rubies, we are simply not able to notice all the beauty around us. Sometimes, putting aside everything that shines brightest, you can find new jewels among the works of the same well-known masters.
Even the most famous composers in the world, such as Chopin, Liszt, Schubert, Haydn and many others, have works that are rarely included in the programs of concerts and festivals. Forgetting about these works, performers deprive themselves and the audience of the creative diversity of the great maestros.
