Hindemith's InchLudus tonalisInch which is presented on this CD was composed in the American exile. It is not only the composer's last work for piano solo, but also one of the most important works of piano compositions of the 20th century. To show what music and composition are This is what Hindmith tried to undertake in his InchLudus tonalisInch. The basis for harmonic practice and tonal structure presented in InchThe Craft of Musical CompositionInch finds direct application in the final concept of the InchLudus tonalisInch. Heinrich Strobel, musicologist and Hindemith's first biographer called InchLudus tonalisInch the InchWell-Tempered PianoInch of the 20th century. Composer Fritz von Borries said InchWhat has here become music is not a mathematical problem or experiment, but a deep spiritual triumph, in which ultimate reason and ultimate being are revealed. How can the meaning of Praeludium and Postludium be more clearly represented than by letting that which began in the beginning appear in the end and run it's course in reverse direction and vertically inverted? And what wonderful music it is both times.Inch Album Tracks 1. Präludium 2. Fuga Prima in C 3. Interludium 4. Fuga Secunda in G 5. Interludium 6. Fuga Tertia in F 7. Interludium 8.

Though Mozart was typically grudging, Beethoven had a high regard for Muzio Clementi's compositions. A leading soloist, Clementi was pivotal to the piano's development as a virtuoso instrument, but he was also a and innovator. His sonatas combine clarity of form with moments of bravura brilliance, laced with scintillating hand-crossings and his trademark chains of thirds, on which Mozart commented. Infectiously exciting in prestissimo sections, his sonatas offer a compendium of how to exploit new advances in the development of the piano. The works are interpreted here by award-winning pianist Sun-A Park.
