Episode 164: 19164 The Human Condition

Nothing has ever gripped intellectuals as firmly as reflections about the conditio humana, with all the perceptions, joys, and miseries it entails. Israeli pianist and prolific recording artist Hagai Yodan sounds to the depths of existence on his new release, THE HUMAN CONDITION, and with great panache.Featuring both piano and the harpsichord, Yodan skillfully navigates through the seas of Being as described by no fewer than six international composers. There is a persistent sense of melancholy, but also of truculence and a certain rage de vivre – an indomitable will to live. In this, THE HUMAN CONDITION isn’t merely another contemplation; it’s a self-assured declaration.For more information about this album, please visit The Human Condition – Navona Records.This show is made possible by ‎Introducing Apple Music Classical on Apple Music.
