Roberto Prosseda presents the work of Sergio Baietta with these words "...In this new album, the pianist and composer SergioBaietta presents an unprecedented concept: that of‘grafting’ into Chopin’s incomparable piano writingsome ‘extraneous’ elements, which, however, ashappens in every successful grafting, harmonizeperfectly with Chopin’s music. It sounds new anddifferent, but also perfectly natural.
Sergio Baietta plays with our store of musicalmemories. From the mesh of Chopin’s pianism, hebrings out fragments of other melodies that belongto our listening heritage. It is not so important to beable to grasp all the more or less concealedquotations that Baietta disseminates in his Etudesd'après Chopin, but it is worth letting oneself betransported in the perceptive short-circuits intowhich he leads us. And he does so as a true virtuosoof the piano, since it is he himself who performs the24 Etudes, demonstrating a command and pianisticnaturalness equal to his compositionalinventiveness..."
