A rare journey through some of the most haunting of Carl Nielsen’s and Maurice Ravel’s output for the piano, including the latter’s Mother Goose Suite performed in a rarely-heard version for solo piano/two hands. Promises some of the very finest recorded piano sounds ever heard, due in part to a newly developed set of microphones and a very special acoustical environment. American Record Guide called Hamilton’s latest Summit release of Mozart sonatas.
