Dmitri Shostakovich's long-lost Impromptu for Viola and Piano, Op. 33, recently unearthed in the Moscow State Archives,receives its world-premiere recording on Matthew Lipmans Ascent, the acclaimed young American violist's solo debut album, featuring, in the artists words, 'music enraptured by flights of fantasy'. Recipient of a 2015 Avery Fisher Career Grant, Lipman has created an album of uplifting and spiritually transcendent works for viola and piano, dedicated to his late mother. The Telegraph praised Lipman as 'gifted with poise and a warmth of timbre' for his recording of Mozart's Sinfonia Concertante with violinist Rachel Barton Pine, the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, and Sir Neville Marriner (Avie), which topped the Billboard classical chart.
