Balakirev remains one of the most atmospheric and significant of all Russian composers for the piano. From the Slavic allure of his Mazurkas, through the visionary Second Nocturne and monumental Sonata in B flat minor, to his joyous Spanish-infused pieces, he marries expressive depth with virtuoso panache. Hailed as \x91one of Britain\x92s best pianists\x92 by The Spectator, Nicholas Walker has returned to Balakirev\x92s original manuscripts for these performances and unearthed many new discoveries. This collection brings together Walker\x92s complete set of Balakirev\x92s piano works in a cycle that has been hailed as \x91the reference set\x92 by the American Record Guide.Piano Sonata In B Flat Minor
