About

Polish violist Krzysztof Komendarek-Tymendorf’s debut solo album highlights two major works for the solo viola repertoire. Soviet composer Fyodor Druzhinin is a renowned violist with whom Shostakovich dedicated his Viola Sonata. His Sonata for Viola Solo, written in 1959, reveals Druzhinin to be a highly talented composer whose virtuoso treatment of the viola is second to none. Weinberg’s close association with Druzhinin has also led to the compositions of the four Solo Viola Sonatas (No. 1 dedicated for and edited by Druzhinin), each piece having a unique and individual style from another. Sonata No.3, Op. 135 combines technical and emotional challenges to the performer. Krzysztof Komendarek-Tymendorf is one of the most eminent Polish musicians of his generation. He comes from a family with deep musical traditions and is a descendant of the renowned Polish composer Michal Kleofas Oginski.

International Classical Music Awards 2022

“… Lovers of Soviet music should obtain this without hesitation, as should viola players and lovers of the viola generally.”

Colin Clake – Fanfare – July/August 2021

"...This disc deserves a warm welcome, both for choice of repertoire and for the classy performances."

Philip Borg-Wheeler - MusicWeb-International.com - 18 January 2021

Supersonic Pizzicato

“…Krzysztof Komendarek-Tymendorf is a younger violist from Poland who presents his impressive first recording here. The recording has captured his playing very sonorously, but also tastefully, so that it sounds just full, but neither gets on the listener’s nerves nor reverberates unnecessarily…”

Uwe Krusch – Pizzicato.lu - 4 December 2021
