About

Rivka Golani is recognized as one of the outstanding violists of modern times. Her contributions to the advancement of viola technique have given her a place in the history of the instrument and have been a source of inspiration to other players and the many composers inspired by her mastery to write for the viola. Ms. Golani gave a much-acclaimed concert entitled Russian Concert of works by her favorite 20th c. Russian composers on March 28, 2006. The present CD is the recording of that concert. “... carving out a place of her own that no other performer on the instrument can reach.” (Fanfare)

Awards and reviews

The Wholenote November 2015

the heart of the recital is the transcription – ... by Borisovsky – of Rachmaninov’s Cello Sonata in G Minor Op.19. More than anything else on the two CDs this brings impassioned playing from both performers, with the piano often predominant in a role that is far from being merely an accompaniment.
