About this product
This is the first of two volumes of George Walker's complete piano works, both featuring performances by Alexandre Dossin. The three sonatas heard here offer compelling contrasts. Sonata No. 1 is his longest and utilises folk tunes, No. 2 is darker and unified by tonal relationships, while No. 3 displays contrapuntal mastery and translucent elements. The album opens with the serene and majestic Prelude and Caprice, while both Spatials and Spektra are atonal. Bauble is heard in a world premiere recording.
