Composer/Series:  WOMEN AT THE PIANO - AN ANTHOLOGY OF HISTORIC PERFORMANCES, Vol. 2

  • Description

    Music history and reference volumes were written almost exclusively 'by men, for men, about men' pianists. Naxos redresses this imbalance by presenting a comprehensive multi-compact disc anthology of historic performances by pioneering women pianists of the first half of the twentieth century, continuing with this second volume (Volume 1 is available on 8.111120). Each pianist is represented by one exemplary selection, with detailed information on both the artist and the recording. Great care is being lavished on making this endeavour a seamless listening experience, by matching the acoustical quality of the various pianos used in so many different venues.""
