Nearly twenty years have passed since HelSne Grimaud first encountered Valentin Silvestrov's Silent Songs. She has finally found a partner to perform these songs with in the sensational young baritone Konstantin Krimmel. HelSne explains, "It's music I find very touching in it's honest and transparency. It's poetic. It's not pretending to be anything and has a very special color and texture."
