Description
Kotaro Fukuma presents a wonderful collection of piano transcriptions fusing virtuosity and lyricism. Besides such popular pieces as Bach-Gounod Ave Maria, Schumann-Liszt Widmung, Wagner-Liszt Isoldes Liebestod, the program includes Fukuma's own transcription of Mozart Eine kleine Nachtmusik and a potpourri of French Chansons << Chanson Medley >> which has been at the top of his fans' wish list. Fukuma's virtuosity shines in Ponchielli -Vleminckx Danza delle ore (La Gioconda) and Tchaikovsky-Taneyev Waltz of the flowers (The Nutcracker). Leslie Howard's Reminiscences de l'opera Turandot de Puccini (Nessun Dorma!) appears for the first time on CD. English and Japanese program notes available in the booklet, French and German on Fukuma's website.
