Marc-Andre Hamelin - Busoni: Late Piano Music [CD]

‘Hamelin mastered its rising and falling cascades of scales, biting rhythms and thunderous textures as though he was Busoni himself’ (The Birmingham News, USA) Marc-Andre Hamelin is indisputably the king of Busoni pianists. He triumphantly masters the extraordinary technical difficulties and contrapuntal complexities this composer presents. This generously priced triple album offers most of Busoni’s mature works and the widest selection of pieces from the Klavierubung so far recorded, many of them for the first time. (Studio Master: Please note that the recording of the Fantasia after J S Bach included here is taken from Marc-Andre Hamelin's 1998 album 'The Composer-Pianists' and has been up-sampled to 24-bit 96 kHz.)
