Eugenia Moliner:

Song to the Moon

Internationally acclaimed flutist Eugenia Moliner releases her new album, Song to the Moon, on July 26, 2024, under the Azica Records label. This evocative collection features music by Gustav Mahler, Franz Schubert, Nikolai Medtner, and Thomas as well as a specially commissioned piece based on Antonín Dvorák’s beloved "Song to the Moon." The idea for this recording emerged from a commission by Tom Baron of a piece inspired by his favorite melody from Dvorák’s opera Rusalka: the enchanting "Song to the Moon." From this initial concept, Eugenia Moliner envisioned an entire album dedicated to songs and lieder for flute and piano. Moliner, profoundly moved by Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder—a work composed after the death of two of Mahler's children—connected this project with the recent loss of her brother Pedro. "I feel like the entire album is a profound exploration of the evocative powers of music as a vessel for catharsis and healing; through playing this music I feel I grieve and release the pain of Pedro's loss," says Moliner.
