Despite her tragically brief life, Vítězslava Kaprálová is now
considered the most important female Czech composer of the 20th century, her
prolific output abundant with fresh and bold ideas, passion, tenderness and
youthful energy. This in-depth exploration, representing some of the very best
of her music, includes early gems such as the April Preludes, the exquisite and
sophisticated Variations, the remarkable Sonata appassionata and her final Dance
for piano, reconstructed by Giorgio Koukl from its only surviving sketch.
