Anastasia Kobekina - Venice (CD)

Venice, which showcases many sides of Anastasia Kobekina's artistry, draws listeners away from the lugubrious gondoliers and carnival masks that have provided our standard musical image of Venice. Instead, the album asks how much of what we've internalized about the iconic city is actually real. "Venice feels not just a city but an idea, a character in itself," says the cellist; "or maybe it presents a different character to each of us. It asks questions of you, fires your imagination."
