Johann Sebastian Bach - Ferruccio Busoni & His Muses - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Ferruccio Busoni's most significant musical role models include Bach, Mozart, and Liszt. These three muses informed his mature compositional style, which melded Bachian counterpoint, Mozartian clarity, and Lisztian virtuosity alongside Busoni's penchant for experimentation. The music on Jiayan Sun's new album reveals the diverse ways Busoni responded to these muses, ranging from transcription and arrangement to original composition. Pianist Jiayan Sun, was praised by the New York Times for his InchrevelatoryInch performances, and by the Toronto Star for his Inchtechnically flawless, poetically inspired and immensely assured playingInch.
