About
As the recent recordings from Hänssler CLASSIC have demonstrated, Charles Koechlin was one of the 20th century’s greatest orchestral composers. That Koechlin’s unique style was also exhibited in his many works for piano, has until recently been overlooked. Michael Korstick brings all his usual artistry and musicianship to these delightful pieces.

Slight they may be, but all are pieces of a very specific and refined sensibility; the almost childlike simplicity of some of the writing belies its technical difficulty...[Korstick's] performances have exactly the quiet authority and poetry this elusive music needs. He also supplies the fascinating and informative sleeve notes to this immaculately presented disc.
