- "If there are still many pianists who don't know what to make of Janáček's works, one of the reasons is that they haven't understood that the basis of his pianistic imagination is the sound of the cimbalom and the playing technique of that instrument." Josef Páleníček (1914-1991) - Those are the words of an artist who devoted more than six decades of his creative life to the works of Janáček, and whose interpretations of that composer are rightfully among the most highly respected. - Janáček's works-not only for piano-enchanted Páleníček from his early childhood; he spent his whole life honing his aesthetic sense on Janáček's highly original output. - Páleníček's recordings from the early seventies are among the deepest and most erudite interpretations of Janáček's remarkable poetry. Year by year, they gain more and more admirers.
