Description:

The first collection of Metonel's complete songs was released in September 2020. The fourth collection, which will be the final one, is now available. Metonel originally had an illustrious career as a pianist, but chose to devote himself to composition. His style is rooted in 19th century music, popular for its distinctive harmony and melody. It is complex and precise, yet hauntingly beautiful. Leventhal, who sang this complete collection, was born in Uzbekistan. He immigrated to the Netherlands, where he studied at the Hague Conservatory. He is not only a singer, but also a playwright and theater producer. Pianist Peters is also one of the prominent figures in Metonel's performance and research. The first three collections released so far have all been highly acclaimed, and this is a long-awaited release.
