James Barbagallo - Piano Music 3 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Edward MacDowell is best known for his Piano Concertos and his short solo piece InchTo a Wild RoseInch. This collection provides an insight into some of his nearly-forgotten solo piano music, resurrected here by the late James Barbagallo, whose obvious enthusiasm for the music infuses each track with newfound vitality and energy.
