Schumann’s Kreisleriana, Op. 16
Composed in 1838 and dedicated to his friend F. Chopin, Kreisleriana is a pianistic standout, worth perhaps two Carnavals.

Piano Factory 13.
Manhkopf’s vigorous attacks remind that the piano does not sustain. Indeed this conceit sparks Rhizom, a Glenn Gould homage, in which multiple layers of material intersect and interfere.

Atopos Survey 2. / EA Bucket 19. / Italian Vacation 12.
Curran’s Endangered Species is likely to be one of the best CDs I will have heard all year, and it’s on a favorite new label.

Of Light through the Clouds
The Rands Concerto is, contrary to its title, much more a series of interactions between piano and different sections of the orchestra.

Personal Discoveries: Mieczysław Weinberg
For this needful listener, ECM 2368/69, with Gidon Kremer as soloist and concert master of the rather immodestly named Kremerata Baltica, arrives in timely fashion as a Year’s Best.

Atopos Survey 1. / Italian Vacation 11. / Piano Factory 12.

Concerto Concentrations 2.
Commissioned by Myers to commemorate his mother’s passing, McLean provides a particularly expressive tonal work, a welcome cross between Barber and John Adams… The Shostakovich arrangement is the biggest effort, difficult all around.
